Les Fines Gueules

We had a wonderful 3 course meal here. Great gluten free options. You could have as many courses as you liked. I had poached egg in a red wine sauce with bacon and shallots to start, sausage and potatoes for main and cheese for pudding. They were very aware of allergies as well as coeliac and I felt very safe throughout. The wine was also delicious

We went here because we wanted to have the experience of an authentic Bouchon in Lyon but weren't very satisfied with it. The location is good in the old town, the place/ restaurant is very cute, full of details and nicely designed. The waitress was very friendly and kind and even spoke English (which is very rare i must add) and helped with any questions we had, but the food was not great, we couldn't even eat it, and didn't like it.

Les Fines Gueules is a right bouchon to taste typical Lyonisse dishes. Not all the bouchons with "Bouchon Lyonnaise" tag should be necessarily good. . They may differ dramatically in quality and taste particularly for typical Lyonnaise dishes. There are bouchons although having the offical tag, are tourist trap and cannot keep up a standart quality . But "Les Fines Gueules " is a bouchon with right quality and taste deserving the tag. I definitely recommend for those looking for authentic Lyonaisse dish.

Warm welcome, great sense of humor, and patient with English-speakers. Food was excellent. The filet de boeuf aux sauce morilles was a perfect portion size and the potatoes gratin were outstanding. Our group of six had a very good, memorable experience at Les Fines Gueles!

Really good spot We liked these Wine:communard Bread + Terrine

Great local lyoneese dishes . The fishe souffle in clam sauce was amazing as well as beef tounge macaroni. Truly an excellent place that displays what's best in this kitchen. Would recommend with two thumbs up

Good food (great dessert and starter) with specialties from Lyon, good price (28 EUR for 3 courses), descent staff, casual and warm atmosphere.

The food is delicious!!

Fabulous food, professional service, warm inviting ambience. We snuck in just in time. Were completely impressed with the top notch everything.

A special night out in Lyon, France at a little restaurant in the heart of Lyon, near the universities. We ate outside on the patio, in a small walkway so we could people watch. The server was very helpful in guiding us to the kind of meal we wanted. Various staff members speak English. It is a romantic little stop, with good food and wine.

Delicious bouchon. Was brought here by a local tour guide for lunch, and everything was just amazing. Highly recommend!

We chose this as our target Bouchon during our visit and I'm glad we did. The food was good, they're rated authentic, and the owners were really nice. I recommend getting a reservation. We went during down season and they asked when we came in for lunch, but very kindly seated us without one.

Les Fines Gueules is right down the street from an apartment we were staying in back in October 2014, and it was recommended to us by the apartment's owner. It turned out to be pretty good, for the most part. Sadly, we arrived too late to take advantage of their lunchtime 'menu formule' deal, but they still had a reasonable 'menu bouchon' that included a starter, a main, and a dessert. My wife and I started off with a salad Lyonaise, a traditional Lyon salad with mixed greens, tomatoes, bits of bacon, and a poached egg on top. Simple, but everything was super fresh and tasty. The main dishes were a mixed bag. The wife ordered the quenelle, another Lyon speciality, which is essentially ground fish (but it can also be meat) that has somehow been transformed into a tender, savory soufflé, shaped like a big bun or dumpling. This one was sitting in a tasty pool of crab bisque, and it was delicious, well seasoned and totally fun to eat. I ordered what wound up being this blah kind of pasta gratin: mini ravioli in a cheesy, potato-y, creamy mound with oyster mushrooms. The mushrooms seemed to get lost in the dish - they were basically just kind of there, drifting aimlessly. My wife liked this one better than I did, and she kindly swapped dishes with me halfway through (probably so that she wouldn't have to hear me bitch about it throughout the meal). Dessert involved a small chocolate lava cake and a creme brûlée, both of which were right on the money. Not a life-altering experience, but we'd go back if we were in the area again.

Great spot, true to bouchon lyonnais. Had a wonderful lunch involving some of the traditional dishes, lyonnais salad, escargot, and pike fish souffle. Easy walk from the Basilica in Old Town Lyon. Check in for Sags! #checkinforsags
