Marie Antoinette Restaurant
Marie Antoinette
A Creole institution opened in 1972, set in a century-old colonial wooden house in Victoria, serving only a fixed set menu.
Mahé's best-known traditional Creole restaurant, opened in 1972 in a colonial-style wooden house more than a century old on Serret Street in Victoria. Giant tortoises live in the garden. There is no à la carte menu. The whole table shares a fixed set menu of fried parrotfish, tuna steaks, eggplant fritters and chicken curry, served with rice and Creole chili sauce in generous portions. Recent reviews are mixed, and some diners find the fried items too oily. The set menu costs about 450 Seychelles rupees per person (about €25–35; vegetarian about 325), with drinks extra. Dinner reservations are recommended. Closed Sundays. It is a walk or a bus ride from central Victoria.
