Its located in a very central area near the beau vallon beach between two other restaurants. They have a very limited menu and the service staff are very slow to respond to a new customer walk-in. Most times we passed by the restaurant was dead. The decor is done well and is attractive.

Food was average, if a little overpriced. Service was OK. Parking in that area can be difficult. Menu very limited.

When you receive a recommendation from a local, you know it's a good bet. When we were on La Digue Island, the lady who owned the wonderful guesthouse cocotier du rocher said that she had heard from a friend that this was good creole food. We went to check it out and we were certainly not disappointed. It's great to... More

Salads were pathetic and uninspiring. The three fish dishes bere very average - grilled and baked. The deserts were a few very basic puddings; banana and coconut based. There was no shellfish, no other sea food dishes and for the price it was a total rip off. There were 6 of us and all said they were very dissappointed and... More

Had lunch during my stay in Seychelles. The general impression I had in Seychelles is that it is very few restaurants that offer good food at reasonable prices

Expensive, poor food quality. I was 1 time there only and never come back. You are paying one time and you can eat as much as you can. For drinks you must pay additionally. But...what eat? That's a question

A selection of strange salads, curried chicken and fish, braaied fish and pathetic desserts. Food is not labelled so you are not sure what you are eating and lighting is so bad you can't see what you are eating. No entertainment and staff look unhappy. Charged us 100 rupees corkage for our wine. Really not worth the 400 rupees per... More

As a frequent traveller to Seychelles I am always trying to get the best service, food with minimum financial effort. We were here on April 2013 enjoying the best food from Beau Vallon. We ordered tuna steak and fish and chips and the food was very tasty. We received complimentary fried breadfruit from the house which was a nice touch.... More

The food was excellent- the chefs there are really good. Service also was ok but not the best- the place was crowded and the waiters were a bit overstrained but friendly.
