This restaurant run by Tiago (Portuguese) and Eva (Hungarian) received its first Michelin star in 2021. L'Essência is located a few steps away from the Saint-Etienne basilica. The cuisine offered is a perfect blend of Portuguese and Hungarian flavors. The plates presented in a gastronomic way will be composed of a choice of octopus, asparagus and tuna, beef and vegetables... If you do not choose the tasting menu, you will then have as a dessert an orange pie, a "sponge cake"(pão de Ló)... Very good wine list, welcome and service.

Just go! If you can afford it, just go. It’s a wonderful experience and the food and wine are beautiful. As are the staff. No photos as we didn’t think to take any. Enjoying living in the moment here too much for a photo shoot.

My wife and I both had the 7 course tasting menu with the non-alcoholic drink pairings. I highly recommend NOT doing this pairing. It was mediocre for some dishes and horrible for others. The drinks were either too subtle or overwhelming for the dish they were paired with. Food was ok. Well prepared but just lacking balance and flavor harmony. Service was standoffish and didn't know the menu very well. Unsure if truly Michelin caliber.

What a wonderful dining experience. I can’t put a finger on anything. My favorite part about the food was that it was culinary art but I could still see and taste what I was eating. Highly recommend the 7 course tasting menu. Also dress lightly - restaurant is very well heated.
