👍👍 My wife and I were on honeymoon who ended up being Morgan’s first customers in 2022! They offer wonderful persian cuisine and are beside the Lyon Opera. Great customer service and food was beyond delicious. It was delightful to experience Persian delicacy in French style.

    Just like mom makes it! Mojgan’s food was the best Persian food I’ve ever had a restaurant. The space is nice and the food is presented beautifully. Persian food isn’t almost the most aesthetic but the dishes here look as good as they taste

    Fresh ingredients and tasty food, thus, strongly suggested. Chef of restaurant is a kind person (her name is Mojgan) who host you respectfully and ask your opinion. They change menu regularly, therefore, it’s not the same which is a really positive point. Moreover, I think they can add vegetarian food in their menu officially because I’ve never seen vegetarian food in their menu. However , one time when I asked for a vegetarian food, head of restaurant kindly explained me that she can provide it even though it was not in menu. PS. For those Iranian people who are fan of traditional Iranian kebabs, should be mentioned that kebabs are not served there.

    My family and I traveled from the U.S to visit Lyon. We had a lovely & memorable experience at Mojgan Restaurant. The cuisine is elevated Persian food, and was a delight to experience. We felt welcomed and enjoyed all of our meals. Thank you!

    Came across this restaurant by chance and it was just Perfect ! Amazing menu and the mixture of flavors is just perfect. The safran taste is just gives the dishes a special taste! Ooh and the pomegranate juice is great. Simple and sophisticated at the same tame i totally recommend this place for a dinner.

    I am Iranian. I really enjoyed every meal I had there. Chef Mojgan made a memorable trip for me with her savory dishes and I will go back to Lyon for trying more of them. The patient, polite, friendly staff (speaking in both French and English), pleasant ambiance, acceptable portion sizes and affordable prices alongside the extraordinary food is what I've experienced there. The food and drink menu has a good variation. I highly recommend this restaurant.

    I'm a foody Iranian! I love food and I know good food. I can't find a better word to describe my experience then exquisite! This is not another run-of-the-mill Iranian restaurant that serves average quality Kebab! You can taste authentic Iranian food, the kind your Nana would make! The food tastes heavenly and looks gorgeous, presentable, and journal type. The chef herself, Mojgan, greeted all her guests at their table, talked to them and explained the menu, which was blissfully surprising! I felt special; it was like Mojan was hosting us in her home 🏡 If you're ever in Lyon, please pay Mojgan a visit! You won't regret:)

    Amazing food, great host and beautiful restaurant with a touch of Persian culture! I took a group of my colleagues to Mojgan to test traditional Persian food and they were all more than happy and satisfied and for me it was like taking a short trip back home ! If you’re thinking about testing Persian food, do not hesitate to try this great restaurant!

    Authentique Persian food, just like your mom's cooking. You'll have the opportunity to meet Mojgan, the master chef, because she wants to make sure you're receiving the food and hospitality which you would receive, if you were a guest at her house. The food is amazingly prepared and presented and the environment is cozy and and a complement to the food.

👍 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.
