Lyon

Lyon was a pretty standard French restaurant for NYC. It's located in a cute part of the west village. They offered a lot of the typical French menu items. The food was decent, but nothing spectacular. There are other french restaurants in NYC that I have enjoyed more. The restaurant is fairly large and although it is compartmentalized, I found it to be quite noisy when we visited.

Items Ordered

Soup of the Day

Soup of the Day

The soup of the day was a tomato soup with croutons. It was a fairly simple soup, but it tasted really good. It wasn't too salty and had a strong tomato taste.

Steak Au Poivre

Steak Au Poivre

The steak was pretty average, and the sauce could have been more peppery - it was more like a lightly seasoned gravy than a pepper sauce. The fries were crispy and good, but there was nothing memorable or special about them. This was a very average dish.

Chocolate Mousse

Chocolate Mousse

The chocolate mousse was very rich and chocolatey. This was a good dessert for sharing, as it was too much for one person to handle.
