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.

Amazing and innovative food - so delicious (without being over the top) Professional and friendly staff - who go out of their way to showcase the food that has been created and what they do I can understand why Vue de monde has 3 hats - it deserves them all!

We had an absolutely fantastic experience at Vue de Monde. The service was incredible, with great attention to detail. The food was the best I have ever had in my life, with many of the dishes containing ingredients I don't usually like yet being my favourite of the night. An experience my partner and I will never forget. Thank you to all the staff for such a memorable experience.

Experience was so amazing. From the small details of when we arrived to the final meal. To what wine we like and to what water we drink(sparkling for my wife and flat for me) We have been the last few years for our anniversary , for them to make notes and remember, it is amazing. Can’t wait till next year

A remarkable, delightful restaurant. The shadowy room, enormous views, glowing glass, create a comfortable but also super-special mood. The food is perfect, the service exceptional. Shout out Marie our sommelier, who navigated the varied offerings of the wine pairing for us, with generosity and style. But everyone felt like a new friend! So well done. It’s expensive; it’s for a special occasion but completely worth it. 🫛🌼🐟💫

We celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary here and it was amazing. We had a pre dinner drink in the trendy Lui Bar which started the night off perfectly. Attentive and friendly service, incredible food & wine, lovely atmosphere. The surprise tour of the kitchen and photo with all the kitchen staff with a lovely card signed by all the staff was so nice. Did not feel rushed & would totally recommend Vue de monde for a special occasion

Once again we had a sublime dining eating experience. Fantastic food, service and it’s nice to remembered on return occasions. I had a retirement occasion to celebrate and the staff commented on it and congratulated me which was a nice touch. All of the staff that we contacted with were very friendly, knew there stuff and were ultimately professionals in their trade. Also a signed congratulation on you retirement document was very touching.

Definitely exceeded our expectations. From arrival to the minute you leave the entire experience was stand out and special. The food was inventive and interesting and so delicious. The passion from our lovely waitress to the team of chefs working away to the knowledgeable sommelier was obvious and infectious. Thank you so much for making our visit outstanding in every way
