VITA
Read moreNot always easy to put life in this neighbourhood of De, yet just steps from the Share Dieu and the Halles de Lyon. The good idea of Adrian Pendola and Khaled Stud is to have transformed a walk into a modern version, paying tribute to an exceptional woman. Vita, this is the aunt's forename of Adrien. It is this woman, of Sicilian origin, who is discovered in vintage photography on her Vespa adorning the "ristorante" wall. In addition, the à la carte special pizza recipe has been prepared by Thierry. On the side of traditional cuisine, the Sardinian chef, Davide, spoils us with typical Italian dishes, with incursions on his island. We settled in a room in the red and white tiles— the red is very present, but there's also wood— and we start with a few homemade faits, before you get the balance to the pizzas or the dishes with gambas gambas on a rocket bed and soup in the pistou, trofie hetero polpette in salsa all'arrabbiata, orecchie di elefante went Milanese… This is accompanied by a good Italian wine and ends with a tiramisu worthy of the name. A novelty noticed by the Smart.
BOCCA DI ROSA
Read moreFranco Provvedi is not here to act. Although he is a talented actor with Italian accents, he opened Bocca di Rosa (title of a song: " La chiamavano bocca di rosa, Metteva l'amore, metteva l'amore"…) to make you discover Croix-Rousse inhabitants (and Lyonnais who wish to go up there) the pizzas alla romana. A dough mind worked mainly made with Italian flour and with a good leaven that takes all its time to rise the dough, topped with products directly from Italy (from the Marche region to be precise) and local vegetables. Enjoy a moment of gourmandise and good humour in a restaurant inviting you to stay on the spot to feel like in Italy than to take home pizza (al taglio, very fashionable at the moment). Romarino, Cippola, Margherita, Parmiggiana, Bufalina… Everyone finds their happiness accompanied by a glass of wine, of course Italian. There's a small delicatessen putting on sale the Marche products to bring home the best of Italy. A mouth and a new address to hug tight.
COCOO
Read moreEven if the streets of the city of Neuve and its surrounding areas offer some possibilities for dining, it is not uncommon to ask ourselves in this area where you can eat properly, in different ways, at a reasonable price. A very practical solution was opened recently, with Cocoo, Thai trendy Asian restaurant. If the entrance is not good, the room, the rooms are huge! The decoration offers us a cheap journey and the reception, like service, is really charming throughout our meal. Plunged into a rather chic pagoda frame, under the voûtes in MOSAIC, we discover the house formula that will make everyone happy: The breakfast buffet. No less than 45 dishes prepared every day to taste everything with the limit of its appetite! It is impossible to name all preparations that mix Thai specialities with other Asian cuisines, especially Chinese or Japanese, making Thai beef salad, nems and sushi, to finish with the coco. In the evening, the possibility to compose a wok or eat a carvery. A secluded setting, a surprising and rather tasty choice, the Cocoo is an address to know.
FARFALLA CAFFE
Read moreItaly is fashionable and the farfalle make a mess! This address "to the taste of the day" shows beautiful assets to seduce us. First of all, we are attracted by its terrace on the shaded sidewalk of a charming avenue. But you should not miss the particularly successful garden of the main room - woody notes, bright touches of orange, ice, flat screen broadcasting fashion shows, butterflies in pasta… - and the more intimate mezzanine. Another success, the plate. The salads are generous, the pasta is really good with their sauce, the tasty gnocchis, the lasagna as it should be, the tartar with its little potatoes well seasoned, the well-stuffed pizzas and the maison house are simply eat. A place that has managed to capture the spirit of the neighborhood well.
ONCLE DIK
Read moreA bridge between the Armenian and Mediterranean cuisines in a New York decor, original not? Pleasant terrace, stones apparent to the lights "color keys", from the mezzanine to the superb toilets, no taste of taste at this Uncle Dik. Then there is the homage of an Armenian to his grandfather, Dikran, that one can see a cart on a moving black and white photo. Welcome is adorable and efficient service. But this beauty does not mask the quality of the kitchen. On the contrary, it emphasizes it! The wood oven pizza that can be taken to the avalanche avalanche is eaten. Coeur with couteau, dont mullet fillets on a crispy pancake and roasted chops parfaitement. The desserts are remarkable and the chocolate quenelles of good taste. Beautiful homage to the roots.
WOKO
Read moreOn the esplanade of the Terraces, among the catering offers, Woko stands out by offering us a pleasant trip to Vietnam and Asian cuisine to the Wok. A trendy, healthy and tasty cuisine that allows us to eat in the right timing, whether one is a busy worker or between two shopping sessions at the mall. In a contemporary, soothing setting, economic formulae are available quickly, and many possibilities of varying pleasures. Before you settle, you will get to the counter - open kitchen, nothing is hidden - where you are received with the smile and all the necessary explanations. One chooses a menu, the size of its bowl, normal or XL, then "mixing" its dish with authentic family Asian recipes: Vietnamese noodles, Thai pasta, canto rice… and grills of our choice with pickled meat: Saté chicken, sesame beef, pork to 5 fragrances, paprika shrimp, poisson fish, green lemon or tofu for vegetarians. All you have to do is choose from the entrances, with fresh rolls, and desserts, like these banana nems, to get to table! Regularly, a country is put forward on the map and its recipes complement the offer of dishes. Woko is also installed in Vaise, near the Pathé cinema, and at the Confluence shopping center. There is even a delivery service in the west of Lyon! All Lyon can therefore have the Woko attitude.
CONFLUENCE SUSHI
Restaurant of greed and conviviality in Lyon.Read more
MRS WYNN
Read moreCan Asian rhyme with chic? Answer given by Mrs Wymm, alias Sylvie Huynh: yes, of course! This address in the very central and very required Rue du Palais-Grillet shows how much Asian cuisine is capable of "fusion" while preserving its traditional soul. It is always a happiness to sit in terrace in this quiet street of the city centre, but even more at Mrs Wynn where the reception shows great kindness. Service with wide opening hours to start at the afterwork (specialty of Wednesday at Mrs Wynn's) with an aperitif accompanied by Asian tapas - very wide menu with bouchées vapeur, spring rolls, sushis, chicken skewers with lemon grass or a delicious beef & chips with Thai herbs - and to finish after midnight by listening to good sound. In dining room, soothng deco rwearing red to enjoy the cuiisine of a chef, Patrick Ramsany, who has remained at the helm of Key Largo in Saint-Tropez for 17 years. Very beautiful dishes, tasty, to travel between Asian countries and to go back to France: foie gras terrine with Asian spices, Thai pepper chutney, lobster ceviche or a banh-cuon revisited with duck to get started. Coming up next, a delicious wok with prawns seasoned with garlic and black pepper, a sea bass in banana leave to be discovered with a beautiful gourmet curiosity, an astonishing Thai bouillabaisse with seafood, a Black Angus beef fillet with Thai sauce or a bo bun. Fine choice of very successful sushis. Apple ginger tarte tatin or chocolate nems and spicy caramel sauce to finish on a sweet note. A destination full of gourmet attractions.
TAKUMI
Read moreThe Ainay area offers the finest surprises and best culinary travels. In Rhône, just steps from Rue de la Charité, here is a novelty which takes us to the opposite, since Takumi is a genuine Japanese restaurant in "dim bar" version. Small summer terrace on the street, but especially a room which is both sober and warm. A counter with a few chairs for those in a hurry and a room in the mezzanine to relax and enjoy the kind welcome and service. Even the "novices" of ramen (Japanese pasta served in seasoned and seasoned and garnished broth) will soon become unconditional regulars of Takumi. What are the reasons? The quality of the reception and service, as we've said, but also the quality of the dishes elaborated with quality ingredients. Homemade cuisine made at the moment, full of freshness and flavours, in "bowl plate" which are both beautiful and delicious. The ramen are complete and comes in a "simple" version (pork slice, soy shoots, bamboo heart, young onion, algae), in "Tempura" version with shrimps, Chashu with eggs, Bollywood with eggs, Bollywood with curry or Vegetarian. Other dishes on the menu, chicken curry and rice or a Gyu-Don, chopped beef with onions, which are also delicious. Wonderful Tiramisu with green tea to finish and a beer or Japanese lemonade as accompaniment. A new sweet destination.
CASA DEL GUSTO
Read moreWhat is beautiful this Edgar-Quinnet square and how pleased it is to have found, at one of its ends, this Italian store-restaurant held by a happy female band, from the kitchens to the service. A nice terrace from the beautiful days and the friendly room, its stall with antipasti, cheeses and meats and its high slate where the formulas of the day are announced. A cuisine based on the quality of the Italian products offered in a generous salad served in a superb dish or in fine sauces. Sausage plates, vegetables or cheeses complete the offer of the day. But we must not miss the tiramisu house, one of the few that can be said to be better than ours… To lick the bottom of the dish, is it not Madam? Address especially appreciated by Petit Smart.
NAMASKAR
Read moreFrom the facade of Indian temple to the vast contemporary room, Namaskar does everything it can to make us travel in this environment that is ultimately unsuitable for escape. Special mention for the service that really folds in four to make us discover India's best face and traditional cuisine carried out on-site, including the tandoor, the Indian oven par excellence. Very large card and virtual obligation to be guided by the server to make its choice. Do not miss to taste the "dal makehni", the inevitable dish of Indian lentils, and to a famous naan billed 4 € for a cheese version…
PLANET SUSHI
Read moreIt was not mentioned last year, but already Planet Sushi had hit the 6 th arrondissement. It was probably thought that the sushi invasion would stop there, satisfying the needs of a chic and demanding clientele working at the Brotteaux in search of new culinary sensations. Well no! How not to react to the opening of a new address in the heart of the city, at the emblematic corner of Grenette street and rue Mercière, even though the latter has not been the guardian of the Lyon gastronomy for a long time. We will probably be treated with old "réacs", but we had to dare to offer sushi, especially of this poor quality, at this location. We talk about "culinary creation", but we are always looking for the fish in this maki! We talk about fusion food, but how do you enjoy a maki in foie gras? Planet Sushi is apparently more than 180 products to "taste", but how do you want this to be fresh when the products are presented as a ready-to-eat collection? In the area of marriage between Japanese and European cuisine, Lyon offers so much better than ignoring this address.
SUSHI WA LOUNGE
Read moreSushi is an art that few cooks master. True, very little on Lyon and we are happy to enter the world of Sushi Wa Lounge, small frêre of an excellent Japanese restaurant, the Takeyama located on the same street. Eating at the Sushi Wa Lounge is an unforgettable experience to renew as often as possible (and as it is open every day!). Without being frightened by the word "lounge", too, in all the sauces, we discovered a splendid interior, a harmonious blend of Japanese tradition and modern touches. If the small lounge with a low table is most pleasant, you can settle near the famous treadmill where the wonders prepared by a Korean chef in sushi, maki, sashimi and other California roll. The plats soups, salads and original dishes that bring us to the land of the rising sun are also included in the plats. A quality, dépaysante and tasty address in the heart of Lyon.
DU CÔTÉ DE CHEZ XANE
Read moreWe are not really on the side of Chez Swann, since this passage (careful, it is not a traboule) open between Quai Saint-Antoine and Rue Mercière takes us to Thailand. A totally unexpected setting for an exotic restaurant in many ways. First, because among a series of bouchons and other custom-tailored restaurants for the many tourists who pace up and down the neighbourhood, this one takes us where we do not expect to be, in Thailand. Secondly, because the restaurant occupies a more than discrete passage, more visible by the Saône-side wharf than by Rue Mercière, and that it is settled on both sides of the passage! Two dining rooms facing each other to taste a good-quality Thai cuisine, made by a traditional chef. For the reception and the service, Futé continues to claim that they are irregular and you can be received with a smile, just as you may feel really unwanted. Futé tried to eat there this year, but a person told us that the service wouldn't start before 1pm! Don't get hungry too early… and resume work at 2pm. Another weak point in the house, the desserts that are not a specialty of the destination. Original address rooted in the local landscape, but too "uncertain" to be recommended.

THE NEW WORLD SMOKE
Read moreIn this American style BBQ, passionate men smoke meats, sausages, but also octopus in summer. The result is a menu based on "pulled pork" smoked for 12 hours, ribs, marinated chicken and American Black Angus beef smoked for 12 hours. Meats cooked at low temperature that are very tasty to share, why not, on generously garnished platters. For dessert, a bit lonely, it's cheesecake or brookie. Beers rather than wines. Adorable welcome and guaranteed conviviality. An address that takes us far away!
