However I knew it would not be my only bouchon dinner after trying the typical dishes of eggs in red wine sauce and fish dumplings. I had never had these food before but I know how to cook so I knew something was off. The red wine sauce was thin and watery and the fish dumplings dense and pale. It was a Monday evening so perhaps the best chef had the night off. The wine was very good and the atmosphere was perfectly lyonnaise.

The execution was on point. The dumplings totally had pike/fish flavor but so light and delicate. However the star is what lies beneath it. The lobster bisque was insanely good and brought added dimension to the dumpling. It was served with scalloped potatoes. I started with the cheese and salad. I never had cottage cheese so fresh and light. No comparison to the one you get in the market. It was whipped with herbs and olive oil with a wonderful mouth feel. The dessert was a let down. A praline tart. I should have gone with the cheese plate, but I wanted to end with something different.

A must-try when in Lyon!…read more What a cool restaurant in the heart of Lyon surrounded by many other fine establishments. This one stands out for its commitment to great service and outstanding sandwiches (tartines/toast) hot and cold. The decor here is beautiful with the stonework inside with quite a few tables as well as tables outside. Our server was outstanding, we ordered wine, cider, foie gras and egg salad tartines, and a couple of desserts. The toasts were excellent. The raspberry dessert was too mushy and the coconut dessert too dry. But we will be back for more tartines and to try their burgers.

Only one waitress spoke English, and she wasn't serving us - however she did explain about the different specials of the day. Our actual waiter was super nice and patient as we ordered and the food was amazing. We chose one tartine each (party of 3) and cut them into thirds so we could each sample everything. - Tomato burrata tartine with balsamic: very fresh, pretty much what you would expect from a tomato/mozz sandwich - The special that I ordered was pork with polenta and olives. It was amazing!!!!! - Croque Monsieur was also tasty - ham with tomato and cheese. We shared potatoes gratin and a bottle of wine. Really nice meal in a traditional Lyonnaise cafe. Cobblestone streets and adorable awnings - so picturesque!

The menu changes all the time based on what the chef decides to make and you choose an appetizer and an entree for one fair price. My boyfriend and I shared some butternut squash soup (definitely the weakest item, but still good!) and a delicious quiche made with strong goat cheese and with a salad. Then I was served a perfect, rare steak (too rare, but I'd rather that than too cooked, the opposite problem I'd have in America) with strong mustard and perfect gratin dauphinois. It was too much food for me and I felt bad for not eating half of my steak, but I didn't know if it was acceptable to take it to-go so sadly, it went to waste. They also accommodated my American coffee tastes by adding lots of water to my espresso. I'm in love and hope to go back one day!

Let's start there: I'm french and when I go back to France the last place I want to go is a…read moretouristy restaurant which serves frozen food. I'm always reluctant to go to typical french restaurants as I feel I'm being taken for an idiot (i-e pay a lot of money for really bad food). This place is the exact OPPOSITE: it's a really great bouchon and the people owning the place are so nice and friendly; they explained the whole menu, making recommendations on our taste. The place only has big communal tables with red and white tableclothes, and old posters on the wall. It feels like I'm at Grandma's. The food is amazing: I had the St Marcellin brick to start, then the quenelle with homardine sauce and to finish chocolate mousse. Portions are huge and it only costs 29euros for a 3 course meal (again really good food and really big portions) It really deserves its 5 stars.
