    Yum! I finally got to try Soline with a friend! I had a bouillabaisse with fennel and carrots,…read moreserved with rice and a side salad. A real side salad with multiple vegetables! And for dessert I had a piece of pear & almond tart - vegan and gluten free. It was all very good. My friend had a chickpea tajine that was a little spicy and served with couscous. I only had a taste but it certainly left me wanting more. I really like that this place exists and is so close to my house. I do wish they were open for evenings and weekends though. (They do serve dinner Monday - Friday but it's by reservation only.)

    I'm torn between three and four stars here... Soline kinda deserves four stars just for being a…read morevegetarian restaurant in Lyon! The food is nice and it's organic, the service is friendly. It's more of a cafeteria than a restaurant but that's ok. But the food is after all just nice and nothing one couldn't make at home. It might deserve four stars for veggie-deprived France but for more vegetarian-friendly countries (i.e. anywhere but France) it's a bit disappointing, it misses the twist and some innovation. The prices range from around ten Euros for a big salad to nineteen for a set menu that includes starter, main and dessert, which I find a bit steep for what you get. So like my star dilemma, not sure if I'll go back despite everything that it has going for it.

    The good: Vegan (!!)…read moreTasty Spicy Cheap The bad: Service Cold burger bun Small portions Detailed version: I ordered the burger menu, which comes with a cigkofte portion as a burger, plus a side (like a little fried potato thing), and a drink (I got a bottled water. I should have tried something interesting. Next time.) The burger bun was cold, so that was weird. But the food in between the buns was tasty: cigkofte, lettuce, tomato, pickles, and flat leaf parsley. The guy asked if I wanted it spicy and I said "very spicy" so I was pleasantly surprised that there was a little kick to it. The little fried potato thing was tasty too. I would have eaten more of those. To clarify: it wasn't a fried potato. It was a potato & spice mixture inside a crispy, fried shell. Yum. There were two guys working there. One was helpful but he had a headphone in his ear the entire time I was there, which seemed a little rude. He did explain some things to me in broken English, which was helpful. The other guy barely looked at or spoke to me at all, except to take my money. Neither of them smiled the whole time. It was not the most pleasant experience. I guess when you're eating a 4 euro meal in Lyon, this is the kind of service you can expect. In short, I would probably eat there again, but I would order "to go" next time so I wouldn't have to sit in their tiny eating area watching terrible music videos on their loud TV. Also I would probably try something that wasn't the burger, like the sandwich or the actual funny shaped cigkofte portions. Possibly a review update will be impending.

    Amazing falafel sandwiches! My wife and I are vegetarian/sort of vegan so finding places to eat in…read moreFrance isn't always easy. The staff was super friendly and spoke English since we only know the basics in French so that was nice. The food is ready super fast and it's amazing. It's like a big loaded burger without the guilt. I had the The Original and my wife had the Redneck (we liked the name since we're from southeastern US ). Both were fantastic, I didn't even ever think you could have so many options for a falafel but this place knows how to do it. Highly recommended.

    We came into Lyon late and were looking for something quick to eat. This place was perfect since it…read morewas fast, had relatively healthy options (salads) and a nice selection of different kinds of falafels, including vegan ones. For under 10€ per person, you can get a pretty filling meal. You have a choice of a sandwich (i.e. falafels in a pita pocket) or a salad (this will cost just a tiny bit more). My husband got the sandwich and I got the salad - I have to admit I had a little bit of food envy as they were starting to make his sandwich and stuff it, and my salad looked like just a lot of cabbage and carrots. Both were really excellent, the falafels were fresh, tasty, and not dry, and despite my initial first impression, I actually liked the salad more than the sandwich. The salad does come with two little pita breads so you can still feel like you're eating a pita sandwich without all of the carbs and with more vegetables. I would definitely get the salad again, but you can't go wrong with either. Overall, inexpensive, fast, fresh and tasty and a nice way to get something a little healthier (especially if you get the salad) if you're tired of heavier Lyonnaise food. They open pretty late and on Sundays too. I would come back here again if I were in the area.
