"In the wake of his mentor Paul Bocuse, Christian Têtedoie has built a small gourmet empire. Perched on Fourvière hill overlooking the city, the Têtedoie is a gourmet showcase. A champion of Gallic culinary traditions, this fan of contemporary art is committed to finetuning and even modernising this heritage. Bites of snails, foie gras and pistachio; “portfolio” of red mullet, carrots and game sauce; mallard duck, grilled chestnuts and Jack Be Little pumpkins: his dishes sometimes read like an abstract art exhibition. It’s impossible not to mention his signature dish: lobster casserole with a calf's head cromesquis that he has renamed HTV (after Homard Tête de Veau in French). Generous, sensitive cuisine depicted by an intelligent array of textures and flavours." - Michelin Inspector

The 24 Best Restaurants In Lyon 2024

"It’s difficult to say what’s prettier: the presentation of the dishes or the panoramic views at this modern spot on Fourvière Hill. It’s the unshowy kind of fine dining where you’re equally welcome in jeans and sneakers as a pants suit. Set lunch and dinner menus have courses like pike quenelles in green crab and ginger bisque, candied duckling leg, or risotto with Pastis-flambéed prawns. Best of all is their liberal approach to sauce—after your cod ballotine gets doused, it’s left on the table so those who wish to fish for their own lunch in molten butter are welcome to do so. The café gourmand is a showstopper. " - anna richards

One of the nicest view restaurant that overlook the whole city. The food and service are both excellence. Would love to go back!

I ordered the 4 course lunch off the menu, with an accompanied glass of red wine. To start with. ... Their location looks down on the city from the west side with spectacular views. The restaurant is nicely decorated and very clean. The waiters were very attentive and good at explaining each dish as it came out. All the dishes were beautifully presented and all were tasty. Service was excellent! It was something that I'm glad I tried. But not really my cup of tea. I don't mind paying a high price for food that knocks my socks off. But I'm not one that requires my food to look like a masterpiece. If you are looking for a beautiful view and beautiful food. This is your place!

The view at this restaurant was stunning. I recommend arriving a bit before sunset, as the golden hour offers an amazing experience. The food met my expectations for a one Michelin star establishment; however, I found that six dishes were too much for me, as the portions were quite large. Our wine connoisseur provided attentive service, but the quality of service from other staff varied. For instance, they dropped bread on the table and placed some on my plate (which was fine), but they didn’t clean up the crumbs afterward.

The restaurant has an amazing view. The food is very well presented and the service is perfect. There is an affordable menu of the day if you do not have any dietary restrictions. If you are a vegetarian or have dietary restrictions prepare to pay double the price. I would definitely recommend it to anyone.

Came for dinner, and sadly the experience was a miss for a Michelin starred restaurant. On the bright side, the taste of the food was excellent for the most part. I enjoyed each dish in the 4 course menu, except for the dessert. It was an apple-based affair dressed up to look like a Christmas wreath. The textures fell flat with most of it resembling baby food. Only the bites with the crispy caramel had enough interesting texture. The service was poor for this level of dining. Our water glasses sat empty for nearly 30 minutes multiple times during the night, bread was not refilled at our table despite it being refilled at two right beside us, and the wine pours were inconsistent. The waiters free-pour by the glass however there was a significant difference in the amount between each glass. Menu wise there was also a confusing dish between the starters and main which was only served with one of the entree choices. This left my partner sitting awkwardly with an empty plate while I ate this course. Either omitting this dish, serving it along with the entree, or having one for everyone would be better. Overall while the food was good I would not recommend this restaurant over other options.

This Michelin starred restaurant has been on my list for a while. The chef, unlike most other starred chefs, takes utmost care to offer a fine dining vegetarian menu which is well balanced in its seasonal produce as well as protein balance in each course. A truly delicious meal, one that I will never forget! The wine pairing was well thought out and complemented each course. We did the weekday lunchtime special which makes dining here a more affordable option. The sweeping panoramic views of Lyon perched on the hilltop are just the cherry on the cake! A special mention to the pastry chef whose delicate raspberry dessert creation was nearly too pretty to eat! Thank you Team Tetedoie for your exceptional service and top notch dining experience.
