Mauritius Dining Reviews

Very bad service - tried to pay by card and was told they only accepted cash. I explained i had no cash and the manager said "thats not my problem". I tried to leave with my wife and baby to get cash from the ATM and the manager would not let us leave. I asked if she was accusing me of trying to leave without paying and she said yes it happened before. I was extremely insulted. They demanded i leave my passport there while i went to the ATM and questioned why i didnt have it with me when i told them i didnt. Extremely rude and bad attitude. Ruined our visit to Port Louis.

Resto très sympa avec des jolies serveuses.... mes filles ont adoré les repas, surtout les desserts. Et il faut pas oublié le fameux patron ( Le Marseillais ). Je conseille vivement d'aller chez le marseillais. ..allez l'om

I went there for a morning meal at 10.30/11 on a Wednesday. After hesitating for a few minutes for a grilled fish, I was confirmed it was frozen and went for a Creole Calamari recipe with rice at nearly Rs400. Quite a disappointing experience I could feel the back taste of a frozen meal and the recipe itself lacked of spices. I was literally tomato sauce, with tiny pieces of overcooked potatoes. That's it - nothing creole, no spices, no intention or interest to cook and to please. I swear it was like a ready meal put in the microwave. The waitress was very friendly though. For the atmosphere, there was none from the restaurant itself, but I liked the view. In fact I always wanted to have a meal there, but I guess, while thats the only restaurant I tried on this side, I would go to another one but for a drink. I guess its a tourist trap; sad - such a nice location.

Suis aller dans ce restaurant parce qu'il y a une ambiance extraordinaire avec le patron et ses super serveuse. Surtout quand vous rencontrer un marseillais ça s'oublie pas. Son fruits de mer grillé ete succulent avec le bon vin de cassis ont croiraient a cassis pour de vrai. Je recommande ce restaurant .

First of all, we only stopped here to grab a mid-afternoon treat while touring Port Louis last Saturday, so our review may not be an entirely fair reflection of this cafe. It has a great location overlooking the harbour, marred a little by the odd smell coming off the water (which is, of course, not their fault). A nice place to sit in the lunch and afternoon, complimented well by an excellent singer with a good repertoire. Truly, I'd go there to here her again, her voice was amazing. The food (just an icecream and a flambeed banana, was slow to come, and unremarkable. Obviously bought ice cream with squirty cream and now effort to make the experience anything more than cafe snack. Waitresses were polite, but the whole experience is very pushy along the front there, with waiters acosting you for the different establishments.
