What TETEDOIE does

Têtedoie is a privately held French gastronomic restaurant group headquartered in Lyon, founded by Chef Christian Têtedoie in 1986 and operating under the legal entity SAS RESTAURANT TETEDOIE (SIREN 377820477). The group operates a single-site multi-concept hospitality business at the Antiquaille site on the Fourvière hill (4 Rue Pierre Marion, 69005 Lyon), comprising a Michelin one-starred gastronomic restaurant, a bistronomic bistro (Le Bistrot Têtedoie), and a seasonal rooftop dining concept (Le Rooftop Têtedoie), alongside private event salons (Salon Jeff & Maxime) for seminars and corporate events, an RSE/CSR meeting service, and a separate establishment called Maison Léa.

The business model is direct-to-consumer fine dining and on-premises corporate/private events. Revenue is generated from per-cover fixed-price menus ranging from €21 (bistro lunch) to €195 (chef's lobster tasting menu), supplemented by à la carte items, optional wine pairings (€50-85), gift cards distributed through bonkdo.com, and private event packages. Reservations are taken via TheFork widgets, direct phone/email, and a corporate sales function staffed by Caroline Alonso. The restaurant holds 1 Michelin Star (continuously since 2000), a Michelin Green Star for sustainable gastronomy, and Chef Têtedoie is a 1996 Meilleur Ouvrier de France and President of Maîtres Cuisiniers de France since 2011. The company has no proprietary technology platform, no AI or digital product surface, no franchise operations, and no delivery/takeout offering; all revenue is generated on-premises in Lyon with local sourcing via the Mes Producteurs-Mes Cuisiniers network and heritage seed partnerships with CRBA.
