About this restaurant

Good for special occasions
Fancy
Great for scenic views

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.

Not our first time there, but after a long break we had a special celebration and a good reason to come again. Food was great, no question about it. Beautifully presented, sophisticated and delicious. You might think those portions are small, but believe me you will roll out full from Vue de Monde. I must say the drink service was a bit of a disappointment. We had our initial drinks, which took ages to come, even a glass of coke (except a glass of sparkling since this was on a cart right next to the table). Then nothing. We were after a wine pairing option, but after a few starters proper dishes started arriving and no question about wine or any other drinks. Had to wave and ask. Sure thing, we got apologies etc. etc., but at this level of dining this should not have happened.

Vue de Monde is a very special place. It is a fantastic experience with each course a work of art and each flavour recognisable. The wine selection is outstanding with choices to compliment each course. The international staff were experienced, attentive, friendly and knowledgeable and epitomised the term ’Vue de Monde’.

This was my third visit to Vue De Monde and I was excited to take my partner for the first time! We thought the food was fantastic, although the caviar/oil/nut butter dish wasn’t for us. Highlights were the maron dish, cheese and the soufflé! We loved the tour and particularly the young energetic chef that showed us the kitchen and function room. We did the Prestige wine pairing and as great wine lovers we thought this perhaps let down the experience. The service was fantastic although we felt our sommelier didn’t take our wine preferences into consideration as much as we would have liked. The little note is such a nice touch and we look forward to coming back!

Good afternoon Stephanie, Thank you for visiting Vue de monde again, and for taking the time to leave us a review. While we're delighted to read that the kitchen tour and our Marron, Cheese and Souffle dishes were a highlight; we are deeply sorry to hear that your wine pairing fell short of expectations. If you could kindly contact us via email at reservations @ vue . group to discuss further, we would be most appreciative. We hope that you both had a wonderful Anniversary and we look forward to welcoming you back in the future!

Dining at Vue de Monde was nothing short of magic. Every course pushed the boundaries of culinary excellence — imaginative, masterfully executed, and unlike anything I’ve ever tasted. It was an impeccable experience from start to finish, and easily the best food I’ve ever had. The entire team, from the incredibly knowledgeable sommelier to the super friendly waitstaff and extremely talented chefs, made the night feel personal and unforgettable. Their warmth and professionalism elevated the entire experience. Vue de Monde sets the bar for fine dining — not just in Melbourne, but anywhere in the world. I left inspired, amazed, and already dreaming of my next visit.

We recently celebrated our anniversary at Vue de monde. The attentive service that we recieved really made our dining experience unforgettable and we loved the way that each unique dish was presented to us. It was interesting to learn about how some of the ingredients were sourced and the staff were very knowledgeable about each dish. We loved the little gift that we received at the end - it was such a thoughtful touch to end the night with. Thank you for having us!
