The story
In Saint-Priest, just a short walk from the train station, Le Restaurant offers a welcoming dining room where chef Frédéric Virte crafts refined, creative French cuisine. The kitchen relies on fresh produce sourced from local artisans and producers, with a menu that changes every three weeks to follow the rhythm of the seasons. Daily suggestions add further spontaneity.
The restaurant’s commitment to quality and authenticity has earned it a Michelin Recommended distinction for 2026. As the chef himself says, “There is only one true cuisine: good cuisine.”
Open for lunch from Monday to Friday, and for dinner on Thursday and Friday evenings, Le Restaurant also accommodates groups of twenty or more by reservation. The atmosphere is warm and unpretentious, allowing the food to take centre stage.
Whether you are a regular or a first-time visitor, expect a seasonal, market-driven menu that respects tradition while showing a creative touch. The restaurant’s location between the town centre and the station makes it an easy stop for anyone exploring the Lyon area.
