Del Place Restaurant
A waterfront restaurant at Port Launay on Mahé's west coast, known for Creole seafood, a Seychellois tapas platter and sunset views.
Opened in 2014 on Port Launay Road on the west coast. The terrace sits right by the water and is busiest at sunset. The Creole seafood menu includes a Seychellois tapas platter of seven small dishes for sharing, local crab curry (rare elsewhere on the island and singled out by Lonely Planet), grilled red snapper in banana leaf, octopus curry and mixed seafood platters. Tripadvisor has about 1,700 reviews and a 4.5 rating, though some diners report slow service in peak season. Average spend is about €35–50 per person, relatively high for the island. Dinner, especially on weekends, must be booked. There is no bus service, so drive or take a taxi.
