Restaurants cuisine régionale Seychelles

In the enchanting, hushed setting of the Constance Lemuria, what a pleasure it is to sit down to lunch at Le Nest, between two swims on the delightful Anse Georgette. Perched high above the resort, this table seems to sit on a balcony above Petite Anse Kerlan, offering spectacular views of the Indian Ocean. After a cocktail and a freshly squeezed fruit juice, take advantage of the view to sample freshly caught seafood, prepared with Creole savoir-faire. An excellent moment in prospect. Don't forget to book!

Warm atmosphere under this beautiful and large garden hut with leaves from the mythical Vallée de Mai. You can add a service of almost European efficiency to the daily beautiful buffet and you will realise that this restaurant deserves laurels. At grills, the king of grilled fish, Edwin, the boss, who is also a sea champion. Diving, fishing, excursions: the pink guy must have drifted well on water before anchoring a little on land, for the love of a beautiful blonde woman, a Belgian named Sybille, who does not keep his forces to make his business work, successful, because we are right now in one of the two best reference restaurants of Côte d'Or. It is also better to make a reservation even on weekdays. In the afternoon, you can sit at a table around an ice cream, a cake or a fresh fruit juice.

This is a marvellous spot: here you can eat with your feet in the sand, overlooking the dazzling Anse Royale, salads made with vegetables from the owners' garden, homemade bread and pasta, good fish or pizzas concocted by the talented chef. And everything can be taken away if you're self-catering. After your meal, you can also take advantage of the deckchairs provided free of charge on the beach, showers and lockers (a good idea when waiting for your evening flight after checking out at a local hotel). Friday evenings feature live music.

A long way down the small road to La Digue, this paillote seems a godsend for cyclists in flip-flops looking for a delicious and hearty fresh fruit cocktail, or for strollers looking for lunch in a paradisiacal and often unexpected setting. On the menu: a few simple (and rather successful) Creole and international dishes enjoyed on the long wooden takamaka tables and a siesta on the gentle Anse Banane opposite the establishment. What more could you ask for? Of course, the hardest part will be leaving.

Le Nautique, the restaurant of the eponymous hotel, is first of all a dream spot facing the Indian Ocean where you can eat almost with your feet in the water. On the menu, light and fast at lunch time, mainly composed of good burgers, fish & chips, tacos with Creole sauce and octopus curry in particular. As the sun sets, it's time for the more sophisticated dinner menu. With a few options for carnivores, but above all seafood products sublimated by the chef that only add to the pleasure of the taste buds.

This new address in the small capital is the perfect place for breakfast or a quick, quality mid-day meal. Here, locals and tourists mingle and enjoy the dozen or so tables set up in the small air-conditioned room or on the terrace next to the pretty Hindu temple. The menu includes sandwiches, paninis, wraps, salads, pasta dishes and fish & chips. And don't forget the smoothies for a vitamin-packed break while exploring Victoria.

This pretty wooden house, which opened its kitchen in 2021, is the new table of Beau Vallon. Since then, it has been delighting its visitors, who mostly sit on its small covered terrace, with a rather original menu. Indeed, one can choose between excellent pasta dishes, with products directly imported from the Italian Botte, and Japanese specialties of very good quality. It must be said that with freshly caught fish (including an excellent raw tuna) directly from the Indian Ocean, the quality products are there! We like it a lot.

The Old Pier, a few meters away from the mythical Anse Source d'Argent, offers a few well-crafted Creole dishes, which change daily, and good sandwiches (on the spot or to go). Especially the setting, facing the ocean under a straw hut and feet in the sand, is really very pleasant. It's a godsend to enjoy an octopus salad between two swims, a fresh Seybrew or a good cocktail. The fruit juices are also delicious. The pontoon in front of the terrace also offers a superb view. A real call for selfies!

If the evening buffet (575 SR) is mainly for guests of the Paradise Sun Hotel, coming to lunch under the straw hut of Saint-Pierre overlooking the beach is a real good idea. Of course, the view, especially on the Saint-Pierre islet, is sublime, but the simple and well-made dishes (pizzas, pastas, burgers and of course some Creole specialties) also offer a very competitive quality/price ratio. Everything for a successful gourmet break between two sea baths.

Located on the waterfront, going up north from the pier, this Moonlight Beach Villa is a good option to get under the table and discover some Creole and international specialities for lunch and dinner. But we go there mainly for the view, which plunges into the ocean.

Opened in August 2017, this is the most popular new address in La Digue. This hut facing the ocean and the island of Praslin offers Creole and international cuisine but, above all, an enchanting setting. Here, you can enjoy first-class seafood, fish soups to fall and some good meat dishes, with your feet in the sand and a gentle breeze at nightfall.

In a romantic atmosphere by the splendid 700 ^m2 Savoy swimming pool, Pescado offers a beautiful menu of fish and seafood (we loved the red mullet ceviche) and some refined meat dishes. With jazzy music in the background and a pretty wine and digestive cellar, here is the promise of a good time together.

La Grande Maison is the new top table of Mahé. Opened in 2016, the establishment found refuge in a magnificent colonial home dating back to 1792 and is classified as Seychelles Heritage. Restored with noble materials and in the spirit of the day, it also allows you to live a beautiful culinary experience. The Belgian chef Christelle Verheyden, who runs a local and regal team with a card that changes almost every day. Here everything is made home, including bread, and typical dishes are superbly revisited. One can only advise the heart of fresh palm with truffle and cari leaf, before regaling Creole Creole served in a vase. Unless it is tempted by one of the three fish of the day, the selection of seafood or pig-grown pork on sugar cane. A whole program! Because in every plate, it's minimum 8 ingredients… In short, a table to be tested, especially on Wednesday and Saturday, when a local group occurs live.

Here's a great option for small budgets when it's time to sit down to dinner! Rey & Josh offers tasty dishes (fish curry, chicken curry, sautéed pork, etc.), tasty sandwiches (tuna, smoked fish...) and cold drinks that can be enjoyed right there on the few tables (and their umbrellas) set out on a terrace. Unless, of course, you'd rather take them with you and enjoy them on a dreamy beach. Just the thing, we're here at the junction of the road leading to the sublime Grande Anse.

After an hour's walk to climb the Nid d'Aigle from La Passe, what a reward to land on the breathtaking terrace of Belle Vue! During the day, you can have a snack and/or quench your thirst with a fresh fruit juice prepared by the charming Edna, before or after the hike to the Nid d'Aigle. In the evening (after booking by phone), we enjoy a memorable sunset and we attack the generous and succulent Creole buffet prepared by Lawrence and his young team. An evening to offer absolutely on La Digue!
