The story
Maison Clovis delivers a refined creative cuisine to Lyon through the steady hand of executive chef Clovis Khoury. His kitchen prioritizes seasonal produce and global influences, crafting plates that remain substantial without relying on heavy reductions. Wines are selected to complement these lighter preparations, allowing both premium and everyday vineyards to maintain their natural character alongside each course.
The main floor accommodates quiet dinners and organized group events without sacrificing acoustic comfort or service pace. Staff coordinate complex private parties with the same measured attention given to standard evening reservations. The venue also offers curated tasting journeys for those who prefer a guided exploration of seasonal techniques. Visitors seeking a slower pace often step next door into Clos Bis, a compact wine bar that extends the kitchen’s straightforward hospitality into the evening hours.
The We’re Smart Green Guide awarded the venue two radishes in 2026, highlighting its deliberate push toward lighter sauces and responsible sourcing. Chefs consistently strip away excess fat and rich thickeners so primary ingredients define each plate. This grounded philosophy keeps the creative cuisine accessible while meeting the technical expectations of a serious gastronomic restaurant.
