La Mère Brazier
Eugénie Brazier's 1921 temple, two stars under Mathieu Viannay
Reviewed by Mes Prestiges Editorial Team Last reviewed June 2026
The house that the legendary Mère Eugénie Brazier built in 1921, restored to two Michelin stars by Mathieu Viannay since 2008. Belle Époque rooms, white linen and a kitchen that holds the Lyonnais codes — the bresse poularde demi-deuil, the artichoke-and-foie-gras — while letting Viannay's own precision breathe. The reference point for serious Lyon dining.
Editor's Tip
Closed weekends; book the demi-deuil poularde for two when reserving. Lunch menu is the smartest way into a two-star room.
