AVOID!! This was the worst meal we had on our 9-day trip to Rhône-Alpes. We came on Thursday,…read moreNovember 25th. The problem was the kitchen and staffing levels. Our kids food came out COLD. Their steak haché, and half their french fries, were not hot at all. (But the other half were very hot?) My appetizer didn't come out until my partner's entree. And neither were very good. We ended up leaving early and getting food elsewhere. Our waitress was doing the best she could given the restaurant was packed, there were only 2 servers handling all front-of-house duties, and the kitchen was so unreliable. They need more servers!! I'm trying to understand how this could happen given the good reviews. I bet the head chef recently quit and took people with him, and the management is just trying to keep the restaurant going. And it's a great location, they can still make money. But it won't last long like this...

I loved this place. Very authentic Lyon food at a very reasonable place. My course meal (appetizer,…read moremain, and desert) was 20 Euro. The wine selection was good and they have local wine from the Lyon area. The owner (I thought he was) speaks English and he explained every thing on the menu.

When I was planning my trip to Paris, the one thing I wanted to try was raclette. I had seen…read morevideos and just knew that I had to try it. My friend found this particular restaurant, and I'm beyond grateful. The raclette came with boiled potatoes, bread, and salad. They bring out half a wheel of cheese. The heating element heats the cheese until it's melty, and then we got to scrape it onto the potatoes and bread. OMG!! I can't even begin to describe how incredibly delicious it was. I ate sooo much and loved every bite!

There's only one way to correctly experience the deliciousness that Les Marmottes has to offer and…read morethat is to order the group menu. It's a five-course meal served family style: salad with duck, tartiflette, fondue, raclette, and dessert. If you're a vegetarian, don't fret - there were two of us in my party and they made us a green salad to substitute for the first course and a vegetarian tartiflette for the second! It was delicious - every bit of it. I've been to a few other fondue restaurants in Lyon but this place has the best cheese and the most delicious potatoes I've ever eaten. For dessert, I recommend the ice cream. Every flavor is fantastic! You should definitely call ahead, especially if you have a group. Les Marmottes is kind of small so it's hard to get a table without a reservation. That being said, last night we called around 22H30 and they were able to accommodate us at 23H30. We had fifteen people in our group. The waitresses were extremely friendly and helpful, (they always are,) and made our experience a positive one. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a serious cheese-covered meal in Lyon.

I can't believe this place is just around the corner from my flat and I just now found out about…read moreit! A friend and I went for lunch and it was awesome. They have a lunch menu where you pick things off a buffet and they fry them up together Mongolian Grill - style. Vegetarians rejoice: finally a spicy (or not - your preference) wok dish with tofu and as many vegetables as you want! There are appetizers on the buffet: vegetarian egg rolls (though admittedly, not very many vegetables in them - mostly they were the fried wrappers), salad, and a vegetable soup with spinach, tomato, egg, and noodles. (And possibly some other things? I kind of inhaled the soup. It was great.) For the non-vegetarians, there are meaty egg rolls and huge spring rolls with shrimp, plus some other options I didn't ask about since, you know, meat. For the main dish, you pick out what you want and put it on a plate. I went with broccoli, two types of mushrooms, baby bok choy, and cabbage. (There were at least 5 or 6 different meats to choose from also.) The tofu was not on the buffet but the server said they could add some in the back. You choose your own sauce: I went with piquante (naturally). She asked how spicy I wanted it, and I said "not very" because I wanted to share with my almost one-year-old. The last option is: rice or noodles. I chose noodles. They grilled it up for us and my plate came out beautifully: vegetables and tofu in a spicy (yay!) sauce, with noodles (and a bit of mushroom and green onion) on the side. It was delicious. We ended with coffee which was okay. But I don't want to end my review on an "okay" note. The waitress was so incredibly nice. She chatted with us a bunch and even held my daughter so I could eat! (The baby girl wasn't feeling well so of course she wanted to be in mommy's lap - not very conducive to eating, especially when chopsticks are involved!) She walked her around the restaurant and distracted her with the aquarium and other decor. What a sweet lady! This place is going on my "regular" list. If you like good Chinese, I suggest you give it a try!
