Restaurant with terrace near Place Jules Guesdes, a great place to enjoy home-cooked Japanese cuisine.
Near Place Jules Guesdes, Kinoko cut her teeth at La Commune before opening this beautiful Japanese-inspired street bistro. In a picturesque setting, Kinoko takes us on a tour of Asia, and more particularly Japan (Kinoko meaning "mushroom" in Japanese). A small, pleasant terrace on a quiet street, a warm welcome, authenticity of place and home-style cooking prepared with great skill and carefully selected products. Try the Gua Bao, tonkatsu (marinated pork with breadcrumbs, a real treat) and tataki. A well-executed cocktail menu and house-arranged sakes complete this gourmet journey.

Kinoko is an Asian street bistro located at 34 rue Bancel, in Lyon's seventh arrondissement. Much more than just a place to eat, Kinoko embodies a deep connection to nature, through dishes served in homage to the earth. Inspired by the spirit of bustling Asian alleyways, the place invites you to experience an authentic culinary immersion in a warm and friendly setting. Open Tuesday to Sunday, for lunch and dinner, the restaurant offers a short menu featuring specialties from Japanese, Korean and Taiwanese cuisine. Product quality is at the heart of our approach: freshness and homemade are paramount, whether for marinades, breadcrumbs, sauces or desserts. Our signature dishes include crispy Tonkatsu, soft and generously garnished Bao, well-balanced Kino Bol, and precisely prepared beef or fish Tataki. These dishes are designed to be shared, to make the experience around the table even more convivial. Kinoko also offers a fine selection of tasty drinks to accompany your dishes, in a relaxed and cheerful atmosphere. The atmosphere of the place, punctuated by colorful lanterns and a decor inspired by Asian streets, contributes to a true sensory escape. Kinoko is a must for lovers of Asian cuisine in Lyon.

On est pas sur de la grande cuisine mais tout est bon et relativement copieux pour un prix très correct.
Le service est rapide, l'accueil et le lieu plutôt sympa. Attention cependant, pas de clim à l'intérieur.
Si vous êtes dans le coin et que vous cherchez à vous restaurer, ça vaut le coup.
Les plats étaient super bons.
Les serveurs très sympas.
Une soirée à rééditer dès que possible..!!
