阿帕特城经典酒店 里昂 Valse St Cyr

Nestled in a discreet cul-de-sac, Racine creatively explores local ingredients, without excluding a few more exotic touches. This large, modern bistro serves seasonal cuisine at affordable prices. Meticulous work can be seen in the pineapple tartare with satay ice cream, black pollack confit with coconut milk, or Holstein sirloin with celeriac mousseline. This down-to-earth, friendly and contemporary place is ideal for an accessible, well-executed meal.

Eugénie Brazier (1895-1977), an exceptional chef who inspired an entire branch of French cuisine, obtained three stars in two different establishments. It is in her Lyon restaurant, on rue Royale, that Mathieu Viannay gives his take on the Brazier "legend". In a magnificent hybrid decor, 1930s stained glass windows and mouldings are blended with Saarinen Tulip chairs (a bold design move!) and the chef pays a vibrant tribute to the iconic dishes once served on the premises (Bresse chicken with truffles, crispy pike bread, a stunning Grand Marnier soufflé), infusing them with his talent and nove

After stints in the kitchens of top establishments and the French embassies of London and Bamako, Nicolas Guilloton has turned his ‘workshop’ into a stylish, contemporary venue. The African masks decorating the spacious dining area are a nod to the chef's time in Mali. With Thomas Belval, his steadfast right-hand man, he delights diners with surprise menus that showcase his flair for balanced flavours and his commitment to locally sourced ingredients. The resulting repertory is original, high-flying, filled with flavour and demonstrates a savvy style when it comes to veggies. The lunchtime men

After a prodigious makeover, Les Loges, located in a magnificent Renaissance edifice, has reopened in the heart of historic Lyon. The romantic vibe, depicted by a Florentine courtyard flanked by galleries, columns and spiral staircases and protected by a steel and glass roof, mingles a respect for heritage with subtle modern details. Ever faithful, Anthony Bonnet continues to enhance regional produce, in which veggies play a central role, courtesy of delicate craftsmanship. From the starter to the dessert, each dish is crisp and vibrant, enhanced by grassy, peppery or piquant notes. The tablew

Au 14 Février stands on rue du Bœuf, among the Renaissance mansions, cobbled streets and arcaded galleries in the heart of historical Lyon. A wonderful location in which to sample the surprise menu of chef Tsuyoshi Arai, whose talent and imagination are no longer up for discussion. Born in Kyoto, he belongs to the large family of Japanese chefs who have fallen for France's culinary heritage. He elevates exceptionally fresh ingredients (Miéral poultry, Wagyu beef) by playing on textures, bitterness and acidity: peas, broad beans and snow peas with tamarind, crab and caviar; beetroot tarte tatin

One cannot help but be impressed by the trajectory of Takao Takano's career. Originally from Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan, he quickly dropped his law studies to devote himself body and soul to his real passion: cooking. Since 2013, he has been plying his trade in this elegant, pared-back restaurant located in the 6th district of Lyon. It has been a hit with diners since day one thanks to original, deftly crafted dishes, which delight and surprise at the same time. They certainly fulfil the chef’s pledge to himself: "Keep it simple – keep it good". Let's linger for a moment over the quickly sear

The name of this restaurant pays homage to American rapper Mac Miller, as well as to the circle of friends and co-workers running the show here! Chef Bastian Ruga has perfected his concept. Playing out to a soundtrack of American rap music, his youthful, no-holds-barred cuisine charts a course between bold creativity, North African and Asian influences, and a healthy dose of affection for traditional cuisine – this is Lyon, after all! The original food-and-drink pairings are an integral part of the experience, encompassing beer, herbal teas and a natural wine list. A shining example would be t
