A lively, modern restaurant in Vieux Lyon with a pleasant atmosphere and a mezzanine. Very friendly, youthful service. The menu is short and changes daily, focusing mainly on seafood and mushrooms. Quality is high, but portions are small despite the “sharing” concept—plan on ordering several dishes per person. Not a classic French bouchon; it feels much closer to a Spanish tapas bar. Fills up quickly, so booking is highly recommended.

We went without a booking but managed to get a table. The staff spoke really well english. Food was amazing and each dish came in perfect time to be enjoyed in between sets. If you're searching for flavourful and quality-price food this is your spot. I'd recommend people to go.

An amazing find. Recommended by Nacre. A wonderful share experience. We had Ceviche, Langoustines and Squid, Green beans and the Quail. A great differentiator to the Lyonnaise cuisine. Very friendly and welcoming staff. Merci beaucoup ❤️

Food here is SO NICE! Every dish we ordered is nice and the quail risotto is beyond AMAZING! Service is nice and the vibe is great too. Recommend it so much.

An atmospheric bistro in Lyon's old town. Imaginative, well cooked food with a good wine choice provided by friendly and knowledgeable servers. The dishes are designed to share but that's up to you.

Can’t say enough how best the food is. It’s a combination of superb creativity and decent flavour in a French way. Every dish I tried is fabulous and it’s a restaurant I’ll definitely come back if I had the chance to visit Lyon again. FYI this place is most suited for group as the dishes are ideal to be shared. However, eating alone is also fine as I’ve tried 3 dishes plus 1 dessert and that should be good for a person. The staff are all really nice and welcoming. Apologies for my poor french but they do very patiently explain every dish and it’s a life saver to have someone recommend wine to you too. Again thanks for the amazing dining experience and look forward to coming back!

This was the best restaurant we ate in for our France trip and that's saying a lot. Everything we ordered here was just so balanced, flavorful, and accompanied by an amazing sauce. The concept is great where you order a bunch of dishes to share which is what we prefer. We got the Kingfish ceviche, pappardelle, red mullet, aged simmental beef, octopus, and almond dessert. Each dish felt so masterfully put together with all the ingredients and thought into balancing all the flavors and textures. The vegetables all tasted more fresh than I've had before. They really did a great job of highlighting the natural flavor of the vegetables. Plus, the dishes all came with a sauce that was simply divine. We couldn't stop dipping the bread in the sauces. You really can't go wrong with anything on the menu here. It was cool to see the chef at work at his station and doing the final plating and check before sending out. It really did feel like a well-oiled machine where they just really know what they're doing. This is a place that I'll be thinking about for a long time until the next time I can come back.

Amazing food and service! I love how they change the menu every season, it’s spring time we had artichoke and white asparagus, super fresh, perfect grilled with delicious sauce. Speaking of sauce, only one dish we had I’m not particularly fond, the lamb sweetbread skewers with XO sauce, as a Cantonese me personally can’t accept sweet and sour flavor XO sauce. The waitresses are definitely bringing extra points for the restaurant too, introducing every dish with a smile, not a fake smile if you know what I mean ;)
