    The Good— The view. The service is simply unparalleled. Live music on the weekends. Reminiscent of the luxury lounges found in NYC. Not So Good — Pricey. Some might find the beverage card to be limited. You could experience long wait times. Verdict — If you’re looking for a comfortable lounge to take in the views of the Rhône with the illuminated Université Lumière, and Le Crayon (Tour Part-Dieu) in the near distance, Le Melhor is a must. The seating by the windows are on a first come first serve basis, so expect to wait if you do not arrive early. Nomad Index — WiFi ✅ Power ☕️ Tables ☕️☕️ ☕️

    Not only is the view over the Rhone quite special but the level of service provided by Ludo and his team of Thomas, William & Orphee is fantastic! They do everything to make your stay in the bar something quite magical! Well done to you all! Oh,, and the cocktails are delicious!

    Lovely view of the river, I highly recommend to get there earlier at around 8pm so you can get the best seats facing the view!

    I’m not quite sure of the vibe they’re trying to go for in here. At first it gives off the appearance of a classic club lounge of sorts but when you look at it further it does seem a bit tacky, there is a horrendous club singer singing live over what I can only describe as a karaoke machine. The layout strikes as odd as there are three chairs to each table even with most of the clientele being couples, the problem this creates is there are loads of actual seats but no where to sit - why not move some? The service is okay but I feel that they should move people to maximise the people that can be allowed in, there was one guy spread over 3 seats by the window and people being turned away at the door as there wasn’t anywhere to sit. The cocktails are quite good as is the view which was one of the reasons for coming.

    Nice view but terrible cocktail. Just get a beer or wine; you can thank me later.

  • 5/5 Virgil R. 7 years ago on Google
    Excellent place. A bit pricey however it is justified by the view and the service.

👍 Nice experience in this new restaurant. Gentle staff, there is a nice feeling. I recommend the salads which are super tasty and creative. Could not experience the fresh juice as the restaurant seems to have some teething problems but I will come back in a few weeks to try more.
