"On a peaceful street corner in Lyon's Presqu'île neighbourhood, this neo-bistro has stylish credentials: a counter with a few seats, raw concrete pillars, an open kitchen behind an industrial-style glass partition, dim lighting, and electronic music playing softly. Chef Alban Joriot (Têtedoie, Le Neuvième Art, L'Établi) turns out seasonal dishes featuring clever flavour combinations, executed with precision and bags of character. Think white radish marinated in chilli, house-made pita, tempura vegetables; stone bass stuffed with wild garlic, braised sucrine lettuce, smoked tarama. There is a simpler set menu at lunchtime; more ambitious cuisine in the evening. A top-quality restaurant with a laid-back, trendy vibe: brutal by name, refined by nature!" - Michelin Inspector

All I can say is wow! Came here for lunch after finding it in the Michelin guide, not yet rated but the write up seemed perfect for us. Firstly the service was 10/10 from both the wait staff. Baptiste (I hope that's how his name is spelt) even went out of his way to suggest some sights and restaurants in his home town were were planning on visiting the following week. Great drink recommendations too. The food was exceptional. 11/10. We had the 5 course lunch, which was extremely good value for what we got. The dishes were very creative, beautiful and most importantly very delicious. Perfectly balanced flavours and textures, ticking every box imaginable, so well done to the talented kitchen and head chef. We also enjoyed the music in the background...cool tunes, perfect volume. Really nice venue to spend a couple hours. It's only a matter of time before this place has some Michelin stars against its name. Go here.

Brutal delivers an incredible dining experience that goes beyond expectations. From the moment you step in, you're greeted with warm and friendly service that makes you feel right at home. The dishes are nothing short of outstanding, with flavors and textures that are perfectly balanced and complement each other beautifully. Each bite feels thoughtfully crafted, showcasing the chef’s attention to detail and creativity. The atmosphere is modern, inviting, and tastefully decorated, creating a space where you can truly relax and enjoy your meal. It’s the perfect setting for any occasion, whether you're dining solo, with friends, or hosting a special lunch. The lunch menu, in particular, offers unbeatable value for such a high-quality experience. It’s rare to find such a combination of excellent service, exquisite food, and a beautiful ambiance at such a reasonable price. Highly recommend this gem in Lyon—I'll definitely be back!

We had good food but someone cancelled at the last minute and they told us we'd have to pay for 8 even though we were 7. I thought for the business we brought them (we got two wine bottles as well) they would focus on providing a good experience but instead kinda killed the mood for us at first. We ignored it and decided to pay but this is the first time this happened to me and thought I would share. Perhaps this was due to the inexperience of the waiter.

An excellent experience celebrating a birthday. We went for the full tasting menu and weren’t disappointed; an extremely fun and creative use of ingredients made for a memorable meal. Special mention to the front of house team for their excellent service.
