    The restaurant was really cold. Other customers sat with jackets on. No ambience. Menu was nothing like the varied menu we had browsed on the restaurants website. We left after our aperitifs. We found a lovely cozy bouchon on the same street in stead.

    Bonjour. Je tiens à vous dire que votre commentaire est inconvenant. Vous vous êtes installés et avez été méprisant. Nous disant que les produits à la carte n’étaient pas à la hauteur… bœuf Wagyu, cabillaud de ligne…. Vous êtes partis sans dîner. De quel droit vous permettez vous de critiquer une cuisine que vous n’avez pas goûtée ? Même vos voisins de table ont été choqués de votre attitude. Vous devriez avoir honte d’un tel manque de respect pour toute l’équipe qui travaille avec nous et qui met tout son cœur et toute son énergie à faire d’être fier de chaque assiette qui sort de la cuisine pour que chaque convive passe le meilleur moment possible. Je comprends que vous avez dîner dans un des bouchons voisins de la rue et suis ravi que vous ayez passé un bon moment. Apparemment, vous cherchiez un restaurant typiquement lyonnais , ce que nous ne sommes pas… vous auriez pu vous contenter de nous le dire et nous aurions très bien compris… Votre manque d’éducation ne vous honore pas.

    The food and service were pleasantly complimentary and both were superb. The lighting was terrific for highlighting our meals, but a bit bright otherwise.

    Informal and small restaurant with well presented and prepared food. Had the wine-package, which was generous and priced very fairly. Would go here again for next Lyon visit.

    Another great example of a food entrepreneur. The restaurant is owned and driven by the chef and the chef only. The preparation and presentation of the dishes is immaculate with really nice surprises. Pricing is decent and a wine pairing is recommended.

    The food and the wine was more than delicious. And the chef took care of us all the time. Perfect place.

    The presentation as well as the wine pairing was excellent. The tastes were beautifully balanced. This is a unique restaurant, unlike any other in Lyon. For that special night out, take that someone special in your life.

    Excellent food. Great service. Perfect wine. It was a little bright but the food was so good, the brightness didn’t matter. Joue de boeuf was a delicious surprise. Definitely recommend.

    This place is a real gem. The concept is simple: you can only choose the number of courses you want to have in your menu: three, four or six plates. The choice is up to the chef; but believe me, you won’t be disappointed!

    Do not miss the opportunity to dine here! We let the chef choose the courses to serve us, after confirming any allergies and dislikes. Amuse bouche of veal ravioli in a miso soup, starter of beef cheeks, fois gros, and portobello mushroom, fish course, beef for meat course, cheese, desert and coffee! All delightful, especially starter and dessert. Guy - the head chef/owner who serves as well as overseeing the kitchen was attentive, generous, and a genuine passion for great food. You will not be disappointed!

    Two Menu with amuse bouche, starter, main course and dessert, plus one bottle of local wine (about 30 euro) for 100 euro. Price super good, food very tasty and with good degree of complexity and service very qualitative.
