About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Fancy
  • Great for fine wines
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.

    Perfect venue for a special celebration! The food is exquisite and perfectly presented with full explanation by charming, attentive and informative staff. The kitchen tour and immersion was a joy. Sommelier was very helpful and so generous with information. Wasn’t our first visit and won’t be our last 👏

    This is not just a mind blowing food experience it is theatre and magic. The food was magnificent, creative and at times mind boggling in the most wonderful way. The theatre of each dish was breathtaking. The staff are just beyond wonderful, story tellers wonderful personalities and such exceptional high quality service. We cannot wait for the next menu to roll out so we can book our next experience at Vue De Monde. There is absolutely no questioning why Vu De Monde is one of the best restaurants in Melbourne and you definitely do not leave hungry or without a ton of stories to tell and memories to savour. There are not enough positive words to encapsulate the experience but we are so grateful to the incredible staff, chefs and creative wizards cultivating the menu. Thank you Vu De Monde for an evening we will never forget.

    Sensational experience. Everything was perfect and on point. The experience starts from the moment you walk into the lobby. The customer service is high class and you always have someone accompanying you on this culinary experience. The standard is very high and strong attention to detail. Overall this was a perfect way to celebrate our wedding anniversary. At the end of our dinner, we were given a note from the restaurant signed by all the staff to congratulate us on our anniversary. A very heart warming gesture to end a magical night. Needless to say, the food was just exquisite!

    Has been and still is the best and my favourite restaurant in Melbourne. Tried some exceptional new dishes - maybe some of the best yet. Staff were all exceptional in days where it has become the exception in any business to have exceptional staff. Thank you VDM for a very special day!

    This is my second visit. Food and presentation is just as wonderful. The winter menu is planned to give the creamy and rich feel and matches well with the non alcoholic drink pairing. The non alcoholic pairing is interesting. The beef is magnificent. And love the chocolate soufflé every time. The international mix of staff group is very interesting and added to the rich culture and vibrant variations as each dish of the menu does.
