There are plenty of tacos in Lyon! And with good reason: this is the town that invented the French taco, which has now been exported all the way to the USA! We already told you about his story in this articlehere’s our selection, based on recommendations from our readers!
1. Marinade, the must-have taco
Everyone’s heard of it, and anyone who hasn’t heard that it’s the best taco in town is not from Lyon (yes, well, that’s a bit of an exaggeration, but still). The tacos are good, juicy, the meat is braised, and the gratin… Frankly, one of Lyon’s best addresses for us too! If you haven’t heard of it yet, take the time to visit Villeurbanne and try it out!
📍 110 rue du 4 août 1789, Villeurbanne
2. Le Bônois
If you want to find the best, you’ll have to go out of town. Décines is home to this second little nugget, which doesn’t offer tacos, but “roulés”! More aptly described as a pizzeria, this restaurant also offers this divine dish invented by the best city in the world (no, we don’t overdo it). All products are fresh and of the highest quality! We’ve never had a chance to try it out yet, but we’ll soon.
📍 83bis avenue Jean Jaurès, Décines-Charpieu
3. Chamas Tacos, the safe bet
This chain remains a safe bet: Well, reasonably priced, and they’re all over the city. It’s a brand you don’t have to be afraid to enter, because you know it’s going to be good and you’re going to get your money’s worth!
📍 All over Lyon: Terreaux, Bellecour, Vaise, Dauphiné…
4. Diwan Tacos
Between Place des Terreaux and Hôtel de Ville, there’s a well-known street where it’s good to eat when you’re a little too tipsy. Fast food from all over the world, this is where you’ll find the famous Diwan! Generous, well-grilled sandwiches that will satisfy our bellies at any time of day, right up to 2am!
📍 15 rue Puits Gaillot, Lyon 1
5. Sun7 in Saint-Priest
This one, too, is on the right track. We’ve already heard about it several times, thanks to its “iPad” menu, which assures you of one thing: you won’t be able to walk afterwards because your belly will be so full of goodies. Why iPad? Probably because of its distinctive shape: wider, taller! Still a little far from the center, but well worth the detour!
📍 60 rue de l’égalité, Saint-Priest
6. Uskudar tacos, the meeting place on the rue de Marseille
This Istanbul district needs no introduction. In the 7th arrondissement, Uskudar reigns supreme in taco know-how, and serves up some excellent ones! Simple, effective, succulent… The miracle recipe to satisfy everyone!
📍 26 rue de Marseille, Lyon 7
7. Croqu’Sandwich Tacos Burger, Guillotière’s gourmet restaurant
There’s no shortage of fast-food outlets on the streets of Marseille. But some stand out from the rest for the quality of their products. If Uskudar was one of them, Croqu’Sandwich also has its say! Fresh produce, a cheese sauce to die for… Here too, we bite into our tacos with our eyes closed!
📍 36 rue de Marseille, Lyon 7
8. Tacos World in Terreaux
It has often saved us from our 4 a.m. hunger pangs, don’t deny it. Tacos World and its large windows call out to us when we’re really hungry, and its location does it all! Located behind the Boston, it has everything to attract the most morbid of us. And in addition to their geographic strategy, their culinary strategy has a taste of home!
📍 8 rue Sainte-Marie-Des-Terreaux, Lyon 1
9. 160 food, a treat in the 5th arrondissement
We haven’t had anything in the 5th arrondissement yet, but here it is! Several of you mentioned the 160food. An address that builds customer loyalty through the flavour of its food! We love the DZ.
📍 160 Rue Commandant Charcot, Lyon 5
10. Master Tacos, the innovator
An extensive menu, signature sauces and a generous galette, Master Tacos offers quality food. Their QuesoSalsa is to die for, and let’s not even mention the Chika, an oriental sauce made with peppers. The tacos are baked in the oven to retain all the flavour of the ingredients, but above all to achieve that crunchy-melt-in-the-mouth texture we love!
📍 80 rue Paul Bert, Lyon 03
11. Eat Tacos
At Eat Tacos, you don’t want to take the easy way out: you come here to enjoy the “Maxi Tacos”, the star of the house, a taco so generous (and so good!) that you’ll have trouble finishing it!
📍 189 Gd Rue de la Guillotière
12. King Tacos
With decent prices, good meat and very satisfying fillings, the tacos (lighter but just as good) at King Tacos offer some of the best value in town. Test it now!
📍 66 Rue Villon and 2 Avenue Paul Santy
