Les Fils à Maman, French restaurant in 1st district, Lyon.
Les Fils à Maman is a restaurant in the 1st district of Lyon serving traditional French cuisine made with seasonal ingredients. The menu features meat dishes paired with potatoes, prepared fish, and stuffed chicken breast, all made in-house from fresh components.
The restaurant network began in Paris during 2009 when three friends opened their first location with a mission to serve nostalgic food. This Lyon location represents the brand's growth beyond its Paris origins.
The walls display pop culture references from the 1980s and 1990s, including imagery from animated series and video games that many visitors recognize from childhood. This décor choice shapes how guests experience their meal, turning the dining space into a nostalgic backdrop for traditional food.
The restaurant operates on weekdays during lunch hours and on weekends for both lunch and dinner service with extended evening hours on certain days. Visitors should confirm their preferred time slot beforehand to ensure they can be accommodated.
Diners receive a jar of candies when their bill arrives and have the chance to spin a prize wheel for rewards. This playful tradition adds an unexpected element to the dining experience.

Lyon and its surroundings host restaurants housed in converted buildings that differ from the usual formats. An old convent downtown now hosts Les Téléphones, where customers order via vintage phones placed on each table. In Montagny, Aux Prisons occupies an old prison whose walls and cells have been preserved. Le Petit Meunier in Messimy is located in a 19th-century mill where the water wheel continues to turn during service. These establishments also offer different sensory experiences. At La Table en Braille, the meal takes place in complete darkness, served by a visually impaired team. Oto Oto mimics the atmosphere of Japanese izakayas with low tables and rice paper partitions. Les Fils à Maman relies on nostalgia for the 1980s-1990s with its home-style cuisine and retro decor. From the baroque of La Nef des Fous to the Ethiopian specialties of Messob served on injera, these restaurants combine French or international cuisine with settings that add an extra dimension to the meal.
