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.

    We chose the feed me now option, which consisted of 2 small, 2 large and 1 side. Everything was amazing and delicious, especially the Massaman Lamb curry was amazing with melt in your mouth meat. The service was amazing as well, we did not wait long for the food at all and we barely were able to finish a drink before we were asked if we would like more. Best food we had in a while! We will be back!

    Excellent is the only word to start describing the experience here. It's hard to find a place that truly stands out from others. The service is second to none and the place is cozy and inviting. The dining room was full and the staff did not skip a beat, consistently delivering warm, engaging and genuine interaction throughout the evening. From the moment you are greeted to the time you leave the team make you feel welcome. The food is delicious and inspiring. We were recommended to order the Feed Me menu. That hit the spot perfectly. The pickled baby cucumbers were my favourite dish even though it's really hard to pick a favourite. I cannot recommend Lagoon Dining highly enough and I'm looking forward to coming back very soon.
