Modulo, French restaurant on Quai du Général Sarrail, Lyon, France
Modulo is a restaurant located inside a barge moored on the Rhone River with three adjustable dining rooms. Large windows frame river views throughout the space while guests eat.
A traditional river barge was transformed into a contemporary restaurant, continuing decades of floating dining venues on Lyon's waterways. The river has long served as a place for gathering and eating.
The kitchen draws on regional ingredients and classic French cooking methods that have deep roots in Lyon's food culture. Seasonal changes guide what appears on the menu based on what local suppliers offer.
The restaurant welcomes guests on weekdays with adjusted hours for weekends. Access is designed without barriers through a gentle slope leading to the entrance.
The space can be reconfigured with flexible room divisions for different types of gatherings and events. An outdoor shaded terrace on the water provides another area for dining and socializing.
