Vue de monde is a testament to the belief that dining can be a wondrous and unforgettable experience. The ever-changing chef’s menu pays homage to classical fine dining in a modern context by exploring the beauty of native Australian ingredients. While in the past the menu looked to Europe for inspiration, Executive Chef Hugh Allen continues to celebrate the unparalleled quality of home-grown produce with thoughtfully considered dishes committed to seasonality and locality.

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. The whimsical spirit at the heart of the Vue de monde menu has not been lost throughout the years, with the lighter-handed and more natural approach to cooking being no less infused with theatre.

    Fantastic experience with wonderful staff led from the front with the amazing Raj. The food was impeccable from start to finish and the wine marching highlighted and enhanced the meal in a wonderful journey from some of the best around Australia and around the world. Our first experience but we will be back

    From the moment we stumbled through the magnificent entryway downstairs on a miserably rainy evening, to the last bite and farewells, we were treated like VIPs. No question was left unanswered … each different waitstaff person showed eminent skill, pride and knowledge whilst remaining least intrusive to our whole experience. We expected a certain ambiance and were delighted with the subtlely sheik dining and drinks areas. The evident dedication to providing diner “space” (and we’re talking physical space as well as privacy) is unequalled with any other restaurant we’ve dined at. It’s difficult to find just one or two superlatives to adequately capture the cuisine so let’s try with these: quietly masterful, always surprising … sometimes beautifully shocking, but always providing a sensational taste explosion. Some of the flavours seemed so simple, yet combined with one or two others in the one mouthful made for a downright party in my mouth! We are extremely happy to have enjoyed such a lingeringly joyous evening at Vue du Monde … not to forget the skilful, kind and enthusiastic services of Barbara. It’s evident to us that the staff of VDM love their jobs and that leadership there is strong and positive. Donna and Peter The Whitsundays: QLD

    Vue De Monde is definitely a top restaurant and worth trying once in a lifetime. The atmosphere, views and service was perfect. The food was very unique and mostly tasty but because it changes here and there be open to try things you haven't tried before and not compare it to other restaurants or other times if you have been there before. I can say the 1st time I went many years ago was nicer food wise but this times was average for me for the amount it costs.

    13 courses with an excellent wine pairing. This is still the standout restaurant in Victoria (if not Australia). Staff are amazing and really went over and above.
