August 6, 2020 Tynisha Seiler

Discover Restaurants offering the best Asian food in Lyon, Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes, France. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Lyon has 2,000 years of history imprinted on its streets (yes, the cobblestone kind). Explore this history in Vieux Lyon (one of Europe's most extensive Renaissance neighborhoods) and Lyon's two Roman amphitheatres, which still stage rock concerts today. It's no wonder Lyon is a popular area for travelers, with its dynamic university, first-class shopping, antique markets, vibrant theatre and music festivals, and a range of interesting museums, such as the International Puppet Museum and the Museum of Miniatures and Film Sets. (When we say "interesting," we mean it.)

Mamasan

Authentic Vietnamese & Laotian Bistrot, cuisine made by Viet-lao ladies (a mother and her a daughter), only good fresh products, organic ingredients as much as possible for yummy homemade dishes. This is how we want to do it, just like at home!

Loved Mamasan. Had a table outside on a warm evening and enjoyed some genuinely authentic Vietnamese food. Spicy beef salad to start and delicious satay chicken to follow. Ramp up the spice level and ask for some extra fresh chopped chilli.Welcoming, friendly service all add up to make Mamasan very much worth a visit. You won’t be disappointed Thanks a lot for your visit and very kind comment.May Britain stay with us!

L'Etoile d'Asie

Reviewed By radroumi

Thanks to TripAdvisor, I found L'étoile d'Asie as being the top Vietnamese restaurant in Lyon and #72 overall. I can now confirm that this is true, having gone there for dinner the other night. Afraid the place might be fully booked on a Saturday night, I called 30 minutes ahead and was surprised that they had a table for us. I was even given precise instructions on how to get there by public transport. We arrived and were politely asked to wait a couple of minutes while our table was being prepared. Exactly 2 minutes later, we were seated at our table.The waiter was very helpful and guided us in our choices. My in-laws had never tasted Vietnamese food before and were convinced to blindly follow our kind waiter's recommendations. Being notoriously tough on food, I was amazed as I saw my in-laws gulp down there food with barely a word spoken in between, such was the level of their gastronomic enchantment. My barometer when it comes to Vietnamese food is the Nems (Vietnamese spring rolls) and the Bo Bun. They came in at the very top of my personal scale. They were absolutely delicious! I ordered the menu with a dessert for a very affordable 20€. Most of the main courses are priced between 14€ and 17€.The restaurant is located really close to the Rhone river, not far from place Bellecour and if you are lucky to dine on the terrace you might get a seat with a view of the Fourvière Basilica between two buildings, beautifully illuminated at night. As we finished our meal, we were discussing places to go visit the next day and the waiter politely interceded to give us his advice as a local which we greatly appreciated. We chatted with him for a few minutes and left, feeling full, content, and happy at finding such a great place to eat. After 100 yards, we saw our waiter sprinting towards us with a sweater that we had left behind. Great service indeed from start to (beyond) finish. If you are hesitating about where to go eat and are sick of the typical Lyon "Bouchons", look no further than L'étoile d'Asie. You can go in there eyes closed. I can guarantee that you will not be disappointed!

Miko Sushi

Reviewed By SophiaK

We tried Miko sushi right after returning from a trip to Japan! So, our expectations were high. And we were not disappointed. The food was excellent: sushi, choux salad, miso soup, gyozas and yakitoris were all delicious. The service was fast and very friendly. The restaurant is a bright, welcoming space. Highly recommended.

Tapas restaurant with Southeast Asian specialties & cocktails New Asian street food spot on Lyon! Thai, Vietnamese, Indonesian, Cambodian cuisine ...

Reviewed By KPallini

Amaaaazing, great small place with limited menu (wich shows all is made fresh) of Asian tapas. We truly enjoyed it, great food and very friendly service. The vongole were amazing (we ordered an extra plate instead of dessert, which says enough). A must visit!
