What travelers say:
I saw it on the road on the way back from Place des Terrestrials to Place Blanche. Seeing how elegant the facade was, I decided to go in and give it a try. It turned out that this is the legendary oldest café in Lyon. Since there were so many people, I had to wait for the waiter to finish. We were not served until other tables were served, and we waited for 15 minutes to take our order. I was supposed to have a coffee, but I didn’t have the desire to drink coffee at night, so I had a glass of white wine, Lyon’s famous fish cakes with cheese sauce, crispy chicken with milk sauce and penne with tomato sauce. Fish cakes are a famous Lyonnais dish, made from sea fish. Mince the fish meat, add flour and make it into a large piece. It's a bit like our fish sausage, but softer and smoother. It has a bit of fishy smell. The fishy smell can be covered up by dipping it in the fragrant cheese sauce. Just give it a try, anyway. I think it's average. The crispy chicken tastes very salty, and you really need to cook a lot of white rice. The penne with tomato sauce is not too special, and the portion is quite large, but at least the pasta eaten in France is cooked quite soft, and there is no raw-like center. . A meal costs 85 euros, so it is better to drink coffee in a cafe.

The environment of this cafe is very good, suitable for couples, or lovers to talk and dance here. The dishes are worth experiencing in all aspects, and this restaurant is highly recommended.
Although this restaurant is not big, it is very popular in Lyon. Their most recommended dish is steak, which is very tender, juicy and delicious. My husband especially likes it.
It's a very retro place, not everyone likes it.
