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.

    My wife and I enjoyed our dinner to the max. Very lovely staff, warm and energetic ambiance, and the food was very delicious. The location is top notch. If you’re after some delicious seafood, in a prime location and lovely atmosphere, The Atlantic is the place to be. Definitely will be back again.

    We had an absolutely fantastic experience at Vue de Monde. The service was incredible, with great attention to detail. The food was the best I have ever had in my life, with many of the dishes containing ingredients I don't usually like yet being my favourite of the night. An experience my partner and I will never forget. Thank you to all the staff for such a memorable experience.

    Had a great experience at Ming’s Dining doing their bottomless brunch set menu. There was so many options available for beverages even our non-alcohol drinkers were happy with the value of money for this package. The food alone was spectacular and had our whole table talking. We had a few vegetarians and one vegan and the staff were so accomodating with food options. I will definitely be back to enjoy more of their tasty menu!!
