Frommer's Review
Le Lyrique contains both a formal restaurant and a brasserie. The restaurant opened in 1981 but was cleverly patterned on turn-of-the-20th-century models. It bustles with urban vitality and is very tuned to the arts and business lives of Geneva. The restaurant is only open on Saturday and Sunday when there's a special presentation at the Grand Théâtre de Genève, just a short distance away. The brasserie, which has a terrace, is open all day but serves hot meals only during specified hours. In the restaurant you can try such carefully prepared dishes as filet of sea wolf with grapefruit, a roulade of rabbit with pasta maison, and tagliatelle with scampi. In the brasserie, menu items include chicken supreme with ravioli and leeks, and an assiette Lyrique, a meal in itself that combines four vegetarian and fish dishes -- tartare of salmon, tartare of vegetables, terrine of vegetables, and eggplant "caviar."
