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.

A lovely night out to celebrate a birthday with family. Knowledgeable staff, hospitable service made us feel welcome throughout our stay. The food was delicious - well presented on the plate - the flaming chicken was a lovely touch also (recommend for special occasion). So many gluten free options, made for an inclusive dining experience (as often we need to order separately / make adjustments to the menu item to accommodate dietary requirements). We’ll be back!
