Overview & Highlights

Nestled in the heart of Lyon’s vibrant 6th arrondissement, Bistrot Jaillet offers an authentic taste of French bistro cuisine that delights both locals and visitors alike. This charming restaurant, located at 146 Rue Vendôme, crafts a memorable dining experience defined by rustic elegance and spotless attention to detail.

The culinary offerings at Bistrot Jaillet are nothing short of exceptional, showcasing classic Lyonnais flavors elevated with creative finesse. Standouts include the Salade Lyonnaise, a hearty and satisfying dish that customers rave about as a meal in itself—fresh frisée lettuce tossed with crispy lardons, perfectly soft poached egg, and a punchy mustard dressing that awakens the palate.

Another highlight worthy of praise is the plat du jour, beautifully exemplified by the omelet with langoustine sauce. The eggs are flawlessly cooked to a silky consistency, richly complemented by luxuriant langoustine both folded inside and enveloping the dish in its delicately spiced sauce. Each bite provides a harmonious juxtaposition of creaminess and ocean-fresh sweetness that lingers delightfully.

For meat enthusiasts, the bavette steak with mustard sauce offers a tender, flavorful option skillfully prepared to perfection. The robust mustard sauce adds a piquant depth that elevates the natural juiciness of the cut, making it a memorable centerpiece for any meal.

Visitor Testimonials (518)

The food and service were excellent. The salad lyonnaise was practically a meal by itself. I had the plat du jour, which was an omelet with langoustine sauce, and it was great. Eggs cooked perfectly and ample amounts of langoustine both in the omelet and the sauce. My wife had the bavette with mustard sauce and it was also cooked perfectly and tasted great. We will definitely be back as it is right across the river from where we live.

What a gem! Superb food and a superb host! Great find!
