2 middle eastern places in Lyon we have eaten in, sorted by editor score. All cuisines in Lyon | Middle Eastern across every city.

Middle Eastern cooking in Lyon is best sampled on the Croix-Rousse slopes, where small kitchens trade on flavour over formality. Nafas on Rue Rene Leynaud in the 1er is the address that defines the category, known for its falafel and mezze in the Martiniere quarter. It is a single strong recommendation rather than a wide field.
