Well, Im writing this review 3 hrs after our visit for lunch, and my stomach is still upset. As a tourist, maybe diarrhea is one of the last things that you'd like to have over your journey.

Some positive points : First, the concept of the restaurant is pretty interesting. Old decoration & narrow underground could give you a feeling of nostalgia.

However, they failed in both taste & service. Maybe they are now too comfortable with many reviews in the past. It was very disappointing. As a tourist, you would expect some nice culinary experience in Lyon.

Chez Grand-mère only gave me diarrhea experience. They have lunch set meal : starter / main / dessert at 26.9 euro, basically dessert free. But we were not even curious about dessert by the time when we received the main course since we couldn't half finish the meal.

Poached eggs in salad will be served with egg shells. I wonder how a chef can make poached eggs with shells in it.

The chicken was not fresh and chewy, and the pork sausage was very piggy (smelled too strong). Maybe that's why I had to run back to the hotel for the toilet😅.

I believe a good dish comes from good ingredients, but this place has failed from the basic.

Also, it was a very unpleasant experience, like the other reviews say - you can definitely see that they allocate Asian customers at the corner or right in front of the toilet. We (Swiss asian) asked to change the seats, but the staff said no, without any excuse, although there were plenty of other seats! It was a very odd experience eating while you could hear others peeing & flushing. 😳

We will not let them ruin our first day in Lyon and find some other positive experience. However, if you are not a French speaker, a foreigner - especially not a Caucasian - and a tourist, it's not worth for 60 € to get the experience we encountered. Or maybe it's their strategy, only wants racist customers.

There are just too many better options in Lyon, so my humble suggestion to you all is to avoid this place.
