This Nord (French for "North") is quite relative, since it is located in the heart of the Lyon Peninsula. The first brasserie open by Paul Bocuse - already 23 years ago with the takeover of Le Nord, famous Lyon brasserie inaugurated in 1907 by Edouard Herriot - is thus in a side street, within walking distance from Rue de République. One of the signatures of the Brasseries Bocuse is the verandas that allow you to enjoy the show of a little dark street throughout the year. You will undoubtedly prefer the traditional and cordial room. As usual, flawless reception and service to offer us the opportunity to taste "traditional", like the place. The upper floor offers private lounges where it is pleasant to discuss with colleagues or in family in a cosy atmosphere. You settle down on the red seats and you discover the specialties of an almost unchanging menu that are, according to the seasons, the sauerkraut and the Burgundy snails with parsley butter. Here, the cuisine known as "middle-class" is in its kingdom and you come to enjoy the suggestions of the Chef Franck Barrouilhet: warm sausage with pistachio in brioche, duck foie gras terrine, a mix of griddled fillets of market fish, a pike quenelle with lobster sauce, the chicken fricassee of calf kidneys with mustard... Without forgetting the Grandmother waffles which have contributed to the reputation of the place. A very classic address, in the best sense of the word.

Le service était un peu ralenti car un groupe conséquent à l'étage.
Cependant, un grand merci et bravo à la jeune serveuse aux cheveux noir avec des lunettes qui s'est occupé de nous, je crois que ses parents mangeaient à la table juste derrière nous et ça ne l'a pas empêché de faire son service de façon très pro ????.
