Although the steak was cooked to perfection, it was still pretty chewy, but super tasty and the pepper sauce was delicious. The chips were delicious - I think that they were double-fried and we knew that we shouldn't, but we couldn't stop eating them. It was great value at EUR20 and the service was friendly and efficient!!

The highlight was the black rice and asparagus, the duck, and the strawberries with merengue. The decor is as if you are in a gothic church with super high ceilings.

It is probably the most artistically decorated cafe we encountered in Lyon, short of the great grand Art Deco of Brasserie Georges. This is more intimate and more striking. The motif is lush vegetation, painted on to an olive green background. Green on green. The vegetation swirls in every direction in graceful curls. Cafe Charmant is in a not very charmant neighborhood, the immediate environs of Gare Oullins, a functional boxy modern train station with all the architectural beauty of a highway intersection. The buildings around it are uninspired modern apartments or somewhat industrial looking offices. In this grim suburban setting, Cafe Charmant is an oasis for the eyes and for the soul. My suspicion is that the food is just as good as the decor, But you will have to find that out for yourself.
