La Paillote - Reservar una mesa

I went there with a friend for a lunch on a week day. This restaurant is located on the bank of the Saône river about 10 km to the North from Lyon. In the same area on the bank there are a few restaurants. We looked around and decided to try this one. We were seated on a covered terrace overlooking the river. The menu of the day was proposed at EUR 13.90, which included an appetizer buffet, a main course and a desert. The appetizer buffet was not so big, but offering enough choice. For the main course, the choice was between fish and meat. So, I took the meat (emincé de boeuf with pasta), and my friend took the fish (rouget like fish). For a desert, both of us took a Stracciatella ice cream....

This is exactly what you’d expect from these little guinguettes on the banks of the river Saone, a very friendly, relaxed, typically french place. If you’re looking for “haute gastronomy” look away, but stick to Fritures (traditional fried fishes) or Cuisses de Grenouilles (the infamous frog legs) for which these places have been renown for centuries and you won’t be disappointed. The friendly staff, honest house wines and relaxing flow of the river will do the rest... and you’ll end up spending much more time than you expected around the table in a very french “bonne humeur”!

We had the worst fears about this place but it was the only one we could find that was open. But this was actually a very good place. Starters and mains were top quality. Salmon tartare, foie gras and carpaccio were truest good choices. The entrecôte and tuna steaks were again very good quality and perfectly prepared. Give it a go; I do not think you will regret

Very popular restaurant, with pretty reasonable prices, menu from 22eu. The cuisses de grenouilles were excellent, France on a plate. The service was great, we left well satisfied.
