    Really an excellent lunch. Food was refined and generous (a rare combination). Laurent Rigal waited our table himself. Great explanations of the food and wine and their provenance (do try a dish with mushrooms, they were fantastic). A must do.

    The restaurant was small and cozy. They held a large table for our group and served us the most amazing food. Everything was good including the meat and vegetarian dishes. Le chef était tres gentil et la norriture était marveilleuse!

    We were able to get a last-minute reservation for lunch, and we were super happy with the experience. We chose from the 3-course ala carte menu and had a fois gras appetizer and Bresse chicken for the main course. My husband had the chef's signature chocolate dessert, which he thought extraordinary, and I had the lemon dessert which was also excellent. We asked the server to pair glasses of wine with each course, and she made some very good suggestions.

    Incredible experience. We did the 8 course chef tasting and everyone was blown away. I really don't have words to describe how good it was. All 5 of us in our party thought it was a fantastic dinner. Hats off to the chef!!

    The food was good but the drink price (pairing and aperitif) was not clear upfront and felt uncomfortable when we saw the overall charge after the meal. The food is reasonablely priced, drinks, not so much.

    After doing a lot of research on Lyon restaurants before leaving Miami, we made a reservation for a Saturday night. Our decision was perfect. We received a Michelin quality experience with the chef/owner personally taking care of us and the other guests. It was a great authentic experience as it seemed we were the the only “non-locals” in the restaurant…and the only ones who were not speaking French. Everything was magnificent! We would highly recommend.

    From the beginning to the end, the service was terrific. Rarely do you get to have such interaction with the lead chef, but he greeted us, took our order, and supervised the serving of the courses. Some of this superb attention was because we came during a slow season (March), but it was really amazing and made the experience feel all the more special. Food-wise, we ordered a la carte and were very pleased. Every dish was really good. The escargot (my first time) was really nice. My only minor nitpick is that the steak was a bit unmemorable; the cooking was fine, but the meat and seasoning were just a little bit bland. Beyond that, every other item was really good. And my wife's chocolate desert was amazing. We also let the chef pick our wines, and his pairings were top-notch. Would gladly eat there again and enjoy the great service.

    Immensely satisfying evening! A warm welcome by the chef, every course was perfect, expertly prepared and served. Enjoyed a toothsome foie gras, charolais beef with carrot purée, and a warm chocolate madeleine . Two pre-course bites too, so by the end of the meal we were quite full, and happily so. Good price too- we really had a great evening!

    Delicious food, friendly service! Prices are on the higher side compared to L’ecume and Agastache, could be a bit lower. Would still recommend though!

    The waiter seamlessly went between French and English for my American uncle and my French husband. We had to get my uncle to the train station at a particular time, and the staff were very accommodating in making recommendations on the menu to respect our time constraints. The food and drink was excellent!

    We ordered the menu tentation (the chef’s choice seven-course meal) for the whole table. It was the best choice we could have made. Every course was delectable, delightful, and magical to eat and lovely to look at. The recommended wines complemented and enhanced the meal perfectly. Service was just the right combination of attentive professionalism and personal service.

    We were disappointed. the price of a michelin restaurant but the taste was just ok, not great. We took a full course menu, but still left hungry. We felt like we could eat a much better dinner in half the price.

    food is excellent. we both took the all vegetables menu. highly recommended, you won't miss fish or meat. it's all well balanced, and builds up from fresh and light to more hearty and savoury. The place itself might be a bit too cramped for the number of guests they try to accommodate. It lacks privacy. the owner is a very accomodating host, but his support staff seemed to be new to this kind of work. just not attentive enough, and a smile every now and then would have been appreciated.
