The dining scene in Nancy gives a glimpse of French cuisine in all its forms. You’ll find local bistros, restaurants in old houses, and some international spots from Italy, Japan, Thailand, or Lebanon. Some chefs work with Lorraine recipes, others put a fresh twist on French classics with modern techniques, and many create their menus around seasonal ingredients. The tables are spread throughout Nancy’s city center, but also in nearby villages like Lunéville, Richardménil, or Ceintrey. Several restaurants are housed in old buildings, where stone walls and beams sit alongside simple dining rooms. Others focus on modern minimalism. Menus change often with the market’s rhythm, offering fixed-price options to taste the chefs’ work without spending too much.
