COCHET DANIEL

I had a great experience here. The food was delicious, well thought out and well prepared. The staff were polite and friendly. It was worth the money. It's better to come here than pay over $100 per person at other restaurants. It's for reservation only and you better book in advance. I would definitely come back when I have a chance.

Cute fancy vibe place. Not Michelin standards. The waitress was very nice and explained the menu that is only in French. We came with 2 kids and the place is not kids friendly!! The main waiter almost last it when we came in with my 3 year old sleeping in the stroller. The food was good but not epic. Not epic at all. Price was good.

Dimitri liked the food at this restaurant; Audre was not impressed. It was a comfortable and pleasant room with music that was barely audible. The temperature of the room was good too. Our greeting was correct by Maryline Delbergues but neither warm nor personable. The young woman server was much more likeable. After we had ordered, we were brought an amuse that was an émulsion of cauliflower and eggplant. Although the tastes were not distinct it was an enjoyable welcoming plate. Audre ordered the “amuse, entrée et plat” because the soufflé for dessert was made with chartreuse which she hates. Dimitri ordered the amuse, entrée, plat et dessert” because he wanted the emulsion de riz au lait for dessert. Audre chose the fois gras poêlé for her starter and the veal for her main (because she wanted the have the white asparagus). Dimitri chose the salad with chickpeas and asparagus and dates for his starter and really liked it. For his main he had the pork and also liked it. Audre liked the tiny morsel of fois gras with the hibiscus sauce and Dimitri really liked his salad. Audre did not like her veal because it was dry and the “douceur d’asperge blanche” was not visibly on the plate (nor did anything on the plate taste like asparagus). Neither of us could finish our main dishes and we asked for a box to take it home. For the first time in our entire 80-year lives, we were told by Maryline Delbergues that she would not allow us to take our leftovers because she feared that the cooked food would go bad before we got home. She was not pleasant about it either. Dimitri had his dessert and it was more foam than rice but he liked it anyway. We tried to joke with Maryline Delbergues about having the leftovers but she was stiff. We spent 88€. Audre said she wouldn’t return or recommend the place. Dimitri was not so sure.

Magnificent place for a two-person diner in a weekday in Lyon. Obviously, the food is delicious. The style is fusion, but with no overwhelmingly complicated dishes. Be ready to reserve the place some days ahead as the resto is rather small and well-known among locals.

The food was a work of art but it was lacking in flavor. The starter was okay, the citrus was an excellent addition but it needed more. The meat (pigeon) was supposed to be rare but it was medium...it also was not seasoned very well. The garlic dots tasted like raw garlic...not good. Everything else on the plate was just okay and under seasoned. The dessert was just bland...the cherries were neither sweet nor sour. The vanilla was the most flavorful part of the dessert. The fennel...I couldn't taste it at all. Again, beautiful but the taste couldn't match...it was like I was at Prairial all over again. Overall it was a 50€ meal to include the drink. I could have gotten 4x times the flavor at Djizan for 1/4 the price...Danton/Le 126/L'Inattendu are the same type of gastronomy but much better in price and flavor. Also, I couldn't help but wonder if some of these plates were made ahead of time given how intricate they are and the speed at which they came out...there was a bit of a refrigerator taste to some of the items.

If you like foie gras, make sure it is from France,huge difference! Highlight was the scallop risotto.

Excellent. The lunch menu is really great value for your money. Very tasty food, fast and friendly service, nice place.

Remarcable quality. Excellent value for the price. They even give you an amuse bouche and à treat if you don't take dessert. The menu sous le puce makes haute cuisine accessible. What a great place.
