we drove to 07130 Saint-Peray, and had lunch at La Grappe d’Or. This is a small, unique restaurant that serves a delicious, excellently prepared lunch menu. The wine menu is attractive with a great selection of local wines.

Tripadvisor: We were in the Rhone River area visiting friends-they had heard of this restaurant in the neighboring village so we stopped in(check the hours they serve). We were greeted by a gentleman who proceeded to explain the menu, took our drink orders and returned to serve them. He then took our meal orders and "disappeared." There were 2 other tables with customers and he would appear at times to check on them. A little later he returned with our orders and we discovered he was the chef as well!! It Kind of seemed like we had walked into his home for dinner :-). The atmosphere is very personal in this small restaurant, very unique with not many tables but very fresh, light and open. The Wine menu is small but diverse and the menu is limited to a few dishes that are prepared fresh with local produce. A very wonderful, comfortable experience. The food was excellently prepared and very appealingly presented. Abundant and very filling. We all decided on the same dish and I have attached photos...It tasted as great as it looks! Our friends who live in the area have been here another time and enjoyed the peaceful environment and meal. Kudos to the Chef! If by some chance you are in this region give this very lovely restaurant a try.
