"A great example of ‘Bistronomy’ in the heart of Ainay. This small restaurant offers gastronomic dishes in a bistro setting. The menu is simple and everything is delicious. The chefs source every product locally, like the amazing bread from the boulangerie next door, and the food is all home made. Prices are bit more expensive than your classic bistro, but the quality is by far better." - Beast Collective

We had an absolutely lovely dinner! The food was excellent and our waitress was super friendly. She was kind enough to recommended her favorite wine to pair with our food and it was great! Highly recommend this for your next dinner destination! :)

We ordered octopus risotto and the daily dish recommended by a very kind and friendly young waitress, mock steak in pepper sauce, both dishes was really great. The dessert (crumble mango with mascarpone) maybe spoiled the experience for me personally, but all in all it was a great dinner. The staff is very friendly, the prices are moderate, the restaurant is a small and quiet place, perfect for a quiet evening

Nice and quiet place which is definitely appreciated because it offers the ability to talk normally; it is rare in such location to have such a "silence". The menu has a variety of possibilities and dishes are well presented to add a visual benefit on top of the taste and flavors: a multi-sense experience. Cherry on the cake, Capucine who assured the Service that day was perfect in suggesting options and being present as one would expect.

Went there for a diner with friends. And I wouldn’t, in good faith, recommend this restaurant to anyone I know. While the food was actually quite good, the customer service was despicable to say the least. The waitress was impolite, condescending, and disrespectful. She was clearly repulsed by our presence, and she didn’t even bother to hide it. At some point we asked her for water and bread, her answer was "right away", and she went on to an other table taking orders from other people. We were mid-course when the other gentleman waiter was finally kind enough to bring them. The whole experience was obscene and infuriating due to the waitress’s disparaging looks and bashing remarks. We couldn’t get out of there fast enough. Nerver again.

Food was amazing, seared tuna was cooked to perfection and the baked aubergine with parmigiano was bursting with flavour. You definitely won't go home hungry the starters were huge so make sure you leave room for the main course.

Excellent food. We had the menu lyonais and the octopus. Both choices were great. Don't miss the dessert, especially the ice cream. It's an explosion! It was an amazing dinner.

It was mediocre. The plates need more work to taste better. For example the risotto with shrimps was sour and fatty. Nice service though!

Very nice and cozy restaurant. Went there for lunch. 50€ for 3 people (no wine). Food quality is good. Staff are very nice and attentive.

Great culinary experience. We chose two entrees and two plats from the "Menu bistronomique". All the dishes featured a variety of textures and interesting flavours. The service was great, with both proprietors checking in on a regular basis. The menu has full descriptions in both French and English with Claire having a good command of english as well in describing the dishes and recommending wines. This being early June, we opted to sit outside by the street. There was some noise from passing traffic, but at 7:30PM (the time we showed up) most of the day traffic had subsided.

Do not order beef. Improperly cooked, skirt steak impossible to chew or cut. Stay away. Service was great, bread awesome! Salmond was fresh and tasty. Minestrone soup is good. Deserts are wonderfully refreshing. Sitting outside is noisy with cars creating noise and gasoline smell. People smoke outside within a few feet from the sitting area. Cheese desert not readable without wine pairing.

Great place! Very decent prices for lunch and dinner (10€ for the plat du jour lunch!). I had a fabulous fish with a very nice sauce. There is quite a bit of street noise if you sit outside, and the desert wasn't fabulous, but overall a really great find in Lyon!

What a find! Mushrooms were in season and very much featured with lamb shoulder roasted in spices rich and distinct. A lovely rich red wine sauce. Delicate starters with fresh ingredients. You can tell that everything is prepared with care and attention to detail. Good wine selection and very fair prices. Entree, Plat, Dessert, or any combination. The staff is welcoming, friendly, and helpful. A memorable meal, and a great value.

By far, our two dinners at this wonderful place were the best food we had in our entire week in the Alsace and Lyon region of France. The waiter was the ultimate professional, courteous, answered all our questions & provided great service. We loved our dinner the first night so much, we came back the next day for a repeat performance. We absolutely loved the lamb, pork roast, wonderful soup, and amazing desserts! This place is a "don't miss" in Lyon. My highest recommendation ever.

Atmosphere was quite for romantic dinner. Service was excellent. We enjoyed our meals which included appetizer and dessert. We wanted an authentic experience and this restaurant did not disappoint. We can recommend it highly. The duck was the best I have ever had and my wife's fish was cooked perfect. Dessert was outstanding. Value of the meal was exceptional given the high quality! Almost forgot to mention my appetizer which was salmon with lentil - Amazing!! If you miss this on you trip to Lyon it is a big mistake.
