Café Terroir Lyon

We had a beautiful dinner at this charming, very well run restaurant. The two amuse buche to start were the perfect introduction of what was to come. Mum chose the best meal, the sweetbread vol au vent. Insanely delicious. But all of our meals were lovely and the service and presentation were perfect. The wine list is so impressive.

Our server, Bastian, went over and above board by helping me get my lost luggage. The airline had lost it and for three full days I was without essential items besides clean clothes. We were at the restaurant when the call came that delivery would be made in 10 minutes to our Airbnb. We were 20 minutes away and the driver didn’t want to let it inside w/o one of us there to sign for it. Nor did he want to deliver it to the restaurant. Bastian was able to convince him to leave it inside the foyer. We don’t speak French and the driver didn’t understand English very well. Without his help I would still be without the suitcase. So thank you so much for your kindness. The food was excellent and the other servers were top form. It was only the second time I had escargot and the first time was 34 years ago We had a great time.

Great food, every course, wonderful atmosphere and staff. The wine list is something to behold and the sommelier was extremely knowledgable and magnetic with his enthusiasm. Please list a hermitage next time! Thank you so much for noting my birthday too!!

It was great night with food. Recommended wine also great and perfect.

We enjoyed a really great dinner at Cafe Terroir, and it was the best experience so far during our trip. We tried the white wine and sausage as main to share, and they were never a disappointment. You can also feel at home and warmly welcomed at the moment when you step into the place.

Went to La Cave Cafe Terroir which is the same restaurant as Cafe Terroir. Ask for the English menu, they have it. Had lunch on my own, didn't try their rotisserie. Ordered a glass of Alsace to start, they served it with some cold cut sausage which was quite nice. Escargots was tender with very mild seasoning, didn't taste much tbh. The wine was so good I had a second glass. Pike Perch the fish itself doesn't have much favor but the texture was soft and delicated. The hazelnut parsnip puree was a highlight, smooth and rich, gave all the favor for the whole dish. Chocolate mousse was delicious! Ended with an cup of espresso. Maybe I didn't pick the best dishes from the restaurant. 60euro for the above, surely can find something better around.

It was a great place for a fancy meal. The staff are all kind and professional. Food was great too we enjoyed a lot. However the wine I ordered in carafe had loads of sediments which personally not keen to drink.

We found this place through the Michelin app. We loved it! We shared a full chicken that was so flavorful and the meat was so tender.

We stayed the night in Lyon, driving from Paris to St. Tropez. We were lucky enough to find Cafe Terroir on the Michelin Guide website and made the reservation before our trip. Our experience here was wonderful. The restaurant is small and the decor is rustic and on the darker side. We were sat at a wooden table in the center of the restaurant. It felt totally appropriate for the overall vibe of Lyon. On communication, my partner and the kiddo both speak French, but I do not. This confused a lot of folks on our trip, as they don't expect to see the blank look on my face when they speak to me in French, after having just interacted with a native speaker. While most of the staff spoke with my partner in French so that I didn't understand what was happening or being conveyed, one staff member spoke to me in English, which I really appreciated because it made me feel less left out of the dining experience. It felt like a true act of kindness. To be clear, I don't go to restaurants in a foreign country and ding them if they don't speak any English there. I just wanted to note that it meant something to me that one of the servers noted our situation and made the effort to make me feel comfortable. Overall, the service was excellent and attentive as you'd expect from a restaurant of this caliber. Okay-onto the food. Oh the food! We started out with the soft boiled egg with cheese and bread and escargot. The escargot was very good. The kiddo ordered the soft boiled egg, said it was "so good," and sadly refused to share any of it with us. Needless to say, this is probably something you want to order. My partner and the kiddo shared the steak for two. Fortunately, they shared this one with me. This dish really was the star of the show. The steak had a depth of flavor I have not experienced before. Truly. There was something very special about this steak. I had the salmon dish, with a butter sauce and a stuffed squash blossom. This dish was perfectly cooked and flavorful, but the steak was so good it overshadowed what was otherwise an excellent dish. We ordered coffee after dinner and the ice cream. Oh wow. Order the ice cream for dessert. Do not miss this dish! The dish comes with dollops of a variety of ice cream flavors -the chef's choice. There was vanilla, and coffee flavor and a speculoos like flavor, among a number of others. They were so good-if I didn't have to avoid dairy, I would have ordered it myself. You cannot go wrong dining here when in Lyon. I'd absolutely come back for a visit.

You need to make reservations! We came here for lunch and service is good. They have English speaking staff and everything is delicious! First time I think fish is cooked better in France than in China. Most of the time fish is either too dry or under cook, but this space is just prefect. Quiches is better than any bakery we went. Love this little cafe.

Excellent food and service and a good wine selection. When in Lyon a must place to enjoy good food with friends.

A hip and pretty place with a delicate cuisine in a casual setting. The staff is fun, their wine recommendations spot on.

Incredible! From the service to the cuisine, an amazing experience. Great wine. Thank you Cafe Terroir for being patient with poor French. I will be back!

We loved it so much we went back for a second meals during our one week stay in Lyon. Excellent fresh cuisine and a comprehensive wine list. They are super helpful and will steer you away from wines you might not like.

Located at a quiet corner. Nice to sit outside. Great food. Pork cheek was very tasty and chocolate moose was fantastic. Local beer. Definitely worth coming back.

A modern and trendy interior design with authentic local food. I cannot recommend enough this place, if you are visiting Lyon and want to taste regional specialties you got to stop here. I had backed Crozets (some kind of pasta) that was amazing and they recommended a pairing white wine that was a great match. I took a couple pictures before they closed so it looks empty, but you may wait to make a reservation as it seems to get popular.

Thanks fellow Yelpers. This place doesn't disappoint! We had a steak and the escargot in the shell, which was delicious. The cooking style is a nice departure if you need a break from the traditional Bouchons. The ingredients were local and fresh. All in a tastefully decorated environment.

A delightful find while out for an evening stroll. We both started with the escargot in the shell followed by the duck in mashed. A different but delightful take on shepherds pie. Both were excellent. We took the waiter's recommendation on the wine that was a great compliment to the meal. Cute out of the way stop in Lyon.
