Saisons

★ Michelin€€€€Modern Cuisine

This 19C château, which houses the Institut Lyfe (the international hotel management school formerly known as the Institut Paul Bocuse), serves the first-class cuisine of Florian Pansin, who is supported by a large team both in the kitchen and front of house. You will appreciate the finesse, precise presentation and well-balanced flavours: scallops with walnut, beurre monté with Rancio wine; beef tenderloin with Kampot pepper flambéed in rum, pommes soufflés... The cuissons are spot on, and there are flashes of creativity. Put simply, tasty seasonal cuisine at its best!

TripAdvisor review sample · 4.8/5 · 100 reviews

Located in Écully, Saisons offers modern cuisine with generally high praise for food quality, wine pairings, and attentive service. Guests appreciate the intimate atmosphere and creative dishes. However, some reviews highlight issues with meal pacing, service errors, and safety concerns regarding dietary restrictions. A few diners feel the value is low given the price point for a teaching restaurant. While most experiences are exceptional, occasional inconsistencies in execution and pricing perception exist.

Suitable for diners seeking high-quality modern cuisine and refined service, but special dietary needs should be confirmed in advance.

Bib Gourmand 1

L'Éclat de Pierre

Bib Gourmand€€Traditional Cuisine

This brasserie in the heart of the village sits just outside the indoor market, serving delicious traditional dishes that scrupulously respect the fundamentals of French cuisine. Made with seasonal produce, the set menu – available at both lunch and dinner – changes every week. The blackboard features mouth-watering dishes: pork and poultry terrine with pink peppercorns; pollock steak with potatoes dressed with parsley and a Parmesan sauce; a custard tart with Madagascar vanilla that won first prize for the "best flan pâtissier in France".
