A Complete Japanese Menu for €16 on Rue Mercière
Rue Mercière isn't exactly known as the best place to grab lunch without breaking the bank. Yet at number 64, Orizzo is shaking things up with a formula that deserves your attention: appetizer, main course, and dessert for €16 at lunch on weekdays. Yes, you read that right. In this neighborhood where terraces line the street, finding a complete menu at this price is almost like finding treasure.

And here's the best part—the price doesn't come at the expense of pleasure. We tested the restaurant and we're genuinely impressed. The Japanese cuisine offered here focuses on carefully plated dishes, thoughtfully crafted flavor pairings, and presentation that makes you want to savor every moment. This is far from a quick lunch wolfed down between back-to-back meetings.
A great deal without compromising on the plate
At Orizzo, the lunch menu lets you enjoy three courses served as a Japanese bento without watching every line on the bill. Appetizers kick things off, main courses take center stage, and dessert wraps up your lunch on a sweet note. And throughout, the kitchen is just as attentive to flavor as it is to presentation. At 16€, the value for money is particularly outstanding, especially at this address.

The restaurant also boasts a 4.7/5 rating on Google among over 330 reviews, a clear sign of the positive feedback from its customers. The warm welcome and the consistency of the dishes are particularly praised in the reviews. On our end, our visit confirms one thing above all: Orizzo is a great spot to keep in mind for a Japanese lunch in Lyon without breaking the bank. And at this price, you'd be crazy to pass it up.
