Fodor's Review:

This charming 400-year-old house is one of Lyon's most frequently filmed and photographed taverns. Simple wooden tables in wood-paneled dining rooms, quirky art on every wall, heavy-bottomed pot lyonnais wine bottles—every detail is obviously pampered and lovingly produced. The salade lyonnaise (green salad with homemade croutons and sautéed bacon, topped with a poached egg) or the rognons madère (kidneys in a madeira sauce) are standouts.
