Vue de monde has been synonymous with Melbourne dining for almost 20 years, continuing to present an exciting and dynamic experience with a progression of flavours and sense of curiosity.

We had such a great meal here. It is a beautiful setting on the beach and the food was so good. We were there for a special occasion and tried a lot of the menu and every dish was delicious and presented so well- simple but beautiful. The pipi’s pasta, a fig and stracciatella entree and the steak were standouts.

Absolutely beautiful. We love Indian food but this was next level. A very special way to spoil my husband for his birthday. There were 5 of us, they sat us at a round table, we could hear each other easily, even grandma could hear. Beautifully designed place, & service was excellent. We loved it!
