Le 231 - Lyon 7e Arrondissement

For something a little bit special, not cheap but you get what you pay for. Unlike some places portion sizes are very robust and if you like speciality steak cuts this has to be one of the best in town. Very friendly staff speak a little English and bend over backwards to ensure you get what you want. Ambience is good, didn't book ahead, excellent night. A number of different set menus or choose a la carter. Wine good value but not cheap!

I came here invited by colleagues from the the nearby ENS. I had a great steak, with a fresh leafy salad accompanying it. The place was full of white collar workers on their lunch break. The restaurants has lots of mirrors with a classical bistro ambiance.

High quality of what is served, at a reasonable price

Very good meat. Very good dessert. The price is a little higher than elsewhere, but the quality is definitely at the rendezvous.

Served as at home, very beautiful waitress in mini shorts every Wednesday. Good atmosphere, superior cuisine, mandatory booking advice.
