Best Paris restaurants located within a 5 minute walk of Gare de Lyon Station | Ratings, Reviews & Maps

A restaurant famed for its extravagant interior. We were early for our booking at 2:00 and they made us wait in the bar until it was time. We were expected to go back to the receptionist ourselves instead of having staff fetch us. We would've felt more welcomed if that was the case, but the staff were otherwise friendly and professional. The food is very expensive but I'm sure most people are here for the architecture and not the food. The baked alaska was a pleasant surprise though, as it was infused with some tropical elements.

With my friends, we had amazing g experience with this very beautiful restaurant . The first time I found this location on instagram. After that, I put mark in my wish list to be there sometime. I live in America and it’s so far away from Europe. One day I checked the tickets and found sale with a big discounts to Paris, France. In a moment we decided to fly to Paris. And I thought, my dreams from the wish list must comes true👏👏👏 Excellent service, beautiful design, very delicious food. Thank you for amazing time. ❤️ I do reservation at this restaurant four months in advance I highly recommend this restaurant to everyone.

The restaurant by itself is astonishing. Something you don’t see every day. Great architecture, and something worth visiting for sure. The food was delicious and you get many options in wine and cheese. The only observation was that in my plate the potatoes were undone. Other than that a great night at a great place.

The decor is amazing! Stunning palace. Service is attentive, though things came really slow, I assume being a Friday night, our waitress tried to explain to us with great attitude. Food is really no more than 3 stars, comparing to highly competitive French cuisine bistros/fine dining restos; and very overpriced.

We had 1,5h for our train and needed I nice restaurant to have lunch !! We discovered that amazingly beautiful place at the railway station! We just had quick lunch from the bar menu but it was very delicious ! Expensive but worth of the money. We love to eat in beautiful places !

An authentic and family restaurant, with excellent French cuisine at a very reasonable price. The service is very attentive and helpful! Without a doubt, a great option to eat and spend a wonderful evening in Paris. (don't forget to try their duck... simply spectacular!)

This restaurant is such a lovely place for dinner. The owner also be the waitress is so friendly and helpful, even though with tourists. The menu is simple but every dish has its own signature with an unbelievable cheap price. Really really highly recommend. P.s: the capacity is quite small so dont come so late after the opening time.

Small restaurant with French home made food and attentive service. We have been a group of 5 people, the waitress treated us very friendly and showed a lot of patience. The food was absolutely delicious. They offer combination of starters, main courses and a desserts. Thank you, we had a wonderful evening.

What a great find! Food was delicious (the duck was amazing, as was the chocolate gateaux) and the staff were super helpful with my lack of French language skills. I'll be back next time I'm in the area. What you see is what you get... a nice traditional Parisian bistro.

Traditional French preparation of food with traditional service. the waiters were kind and accommodating to us since we didn’t know much French. We returned 4 times over the week and tried something new each time. Everything was delicious. There was a place to store luggage. Always very busy but we were seated immediately.

Nice place. Food was delicious and the atmosphere is nice. Not the best smell inside the restaurant (fish…) Price is okay. For two dishes and a glass of champagne we paid 60€

The food was good for the price. The location is very convenient. We ordered ribeye steak, and it was thin by American standards. Not all staff speak English but they do have some who can help translate. My favorite thing was the bread and the cream topping it came with. They also had ice available for my water

Excellent location right next to Gare De Lyon station and next to our hotel. Table seating is very close to other guests. Menu had wide selection for dishes. Warm soft bread to start, the traditional french onion soup was a tasty starter. My husband had skirt steak, which was lean, and the salmon steak was a healthy choice. For dessert, the mango sorbet was exceptional.

Decided to try this place since it's close to the train station. Was very disappointed in the onion soup. Cheese is okay, but the soup itself is very bland, compared to what I have in the US. I need to try more place to see if this is how it suppose to be or what, but so far I don't like it. The bulot is good but might have upset my stomach a little bit after; the sauce is a little too garlic-y on its own but matches well with the food. Service is super slow, but I think it's just how it is here.

Been to a lot of places in Paris, but I think this is the best place to get anything from burgers to pastas. Also the service is outstanding. My family and I really enjoyed it.

Tucked round the corner from Gare de Lyon is this great little establishment. We popped in as we were staying nearby but wanted something better than hotel beer. As we both like trying different beers this made this place a great choice. For us awkward tourists you never quite know the protocol when going in to somewhere like this, but we were soon sat at a table by the friendly barman who took our drinks order and popped back with a menu and specials board. While I can read and speak some French, the barman soon took pity on me and translated a couple of the menu items I was unsure of, we did not want much so grabbed the little chicken kebabs with dessert option. The food was great, served nice and hot and arrived quickly. The Savernoise beer was a local brew and very pleasant if you don't want anything too strong. If you're in the area and want a nice quick bite and a beer you'll not be disappointed.

Incredible selection of beers on tap, one of my favorite places in Paris to taste unusual beers. And of course, don't hesitate to ask for a side of fries.

Great location... great choice of beers on tap. The italian Burger is probably the best Burger i ever had in Paris.
Martin Bauer - a month ago

Great beer selection, great burgers and fries as well as very friendly staff. Very decently priced for Paris and authentic and honest decor, our Airbnb was right across the street and we came here 3 times in 5 days! Highly recommend!

Excellent selections of craft beers! Glad I stumbled across this bar. Prices are cheaper than neighbouring bars. Friendly waiters and bartenders. Absolutely love the vibe. Went back the next day for food and wasn't disappointed. Would definitely recommend you to visit when in Paris.

After losing the rugby and wandering back to our hotel we stopped for a nightcap. The place itself is nothing special but the atmosphere and locals, this is a bar used by local rail staff, are the most friendly and forthcoming. Ok we were the only English in there and France had won but it wasn't all about the rugby. The owner treated us to a drink and so did a couple of locals. For just one drink before bed we spent over two hours such was the company.

Before me and my friends traveled further to Barcelona, we had a lunch break here. Staff is very friendly, and prices are not too high. There are enough places to sit, but the only thing is: there’s no toilet, so you need to go to the station for a toilet. But anyway: this is a great spot to eat and drink something and then continue your journey. Very nice location right in front of the station!

Had a portion from Too Good to Go for 5 Euro. Was great value, but the standard prices are a bit high.

It is a busy place conveniently located next to the train station. Prices are very reasonable. It is worth a visit to explore their plant based food options. I had the oatmeal with some fruits and a falafel bowl with couscous.

Someone was watching over the shoulders here :) Lovely cat which seemed to belong to the owner. We ate breakfast here and got nice and crunchy croissants and baguettes and of course coffee and tea. It was delicious.

A very nice place, with tasty food and reasonable prices by Parisian standards (especially next to a train station!). I was kindly allowed to sit with my laptop for a couple more hours after having lunch.

Absolutely phenomenal dishes. Japanese owned and operated, fine french dining. Set course menus with English menu available. My favorite was the pheasant wrapped foie gras. The meat was so soft and foie gras so fresh everything melted in my mouth instantly. Totally worth every penny, will definitely be coming back again.

Absolutely a must if you are in the Gare de Lyon area. Walking distance from the subway. If you are there for the Rugby World cup..GO! The "formule" is not too expensive (around 55 euros for 3 plates - entry, main and desert). But what makes it great is the quality of the ingredients and the cooking. One of the best meals we had whole year. The chef is simply great with flavours out of this world. Would recommend a visit. The service is also great and nice with the wife of the chef mending the front. An absolute must! FYI: this is not a Thai restaurant. This is not a Vietnamese restaurant. They do not serve breakfast only dinner. it is affordable.. so all of the reviews stating the contrary are in my opinion not valid. Check the chef's background.

Really nice food in a lovely atmosphere. Very friendly staff. A bit pricey, maybe (€50 for two courses or €55 for three), but definitely worth it.

If you’re looking for a very affordable Michelin star worthy restaurant then you have come to the right place. This restaurant that my girlfriend and I accidentally stumbled upon is AMAZING. They have great food and the portion sizes are fantastic. I spoke with the owner who is a waitress at the restaurant and the coowner is the chef. These two are a power team with one focusing on high quality service and the other ensuring every plate is made with love!

Just near Gare de lyon station. If you have some time left before your train leaves and wanted the best food. This is the place to be. Its a japanese french fusion. We enjoyed our food. Esp. The fish dish i had. It was cooked beautifully, clean and delicate. And i like the green bean tempura too! Dessert is also yum! The pie with thyme ice cream, lemon jelly is the best! so much texture and flavor! Yum

Very cozy and friendly. Delicious food. I had Croque Madame and my wife had Croque Italiane. Prices are very reasonable. Located very close to Gare De Lyon and Courtyard Marriott. Highly recommend.

Exactly what you expect from a traditional French Parisian brasserie down your building: nothing high prices or prestigious but local people, French baguette, nice juicy steak and salad, friendly waitress taking care and "Bonjour du patron" when you get in. Great to catch your train from gare de lyon.

After a tiring day sightseeing this was a welcome stop for a well cooked meal and wine. The gentleman who run this place were friendly and welcoming. If you are looking for reasonably priced food near Gare de Lyon, this is for you. oh and the Côtes du Rhône is very drinkable!

Me and my boyfriend came here every day for a week and we had an amazing breakfast every day, everything was so good and tasty and the people are amazing and really friendly! It opens at 6.30 am and you can order a lot of tasty and good things for a not-so-high price! Just remember it is still in Paris and still next to Gare de Lyon. It is really a nice place and I miss to go there dearly! Hope to come back as soon as possible!
