We popped in here for pre dinner drinks as there were few bars open on a Monday in this area. Located down a tiny laneway, it would be easy to miss. However, I'm glad we found it as it wasn't a bad spot for a drink.
Service was friendly, and we sat outside in the laneway where there was plenty of seating. Inside has limited seating and it doesn't have a lot of atmosphere. However, the staff were super friendly and we enjoyed some happy hour drinks. The food sounds interesting as I haven't tried Mauritian food, so I will have to head back to Bistro du Peuple to try it to see if I enjoy it.
Some interesting items especially if Mauritian cuisine is something you haven't tried before.
Dholl puri, $12, great flat bread and curry to go with it.
Vindaye, $14, tuna is cooked through so some tougher pieces, but nice flavour and roti to accompany it.
Fritters are small very crunchy bite size pieces.
Small venue, can be quite loud on busy nights.
Found this lovely place in a small alley - had $6 beers to start with and got me hooked!!!
Had squid tentacles, Mac n cheese blocks and chicken ribs to eat... AMAZING!!! Everyone needs to try them!!!
Lovely atmosphere sitting outside, watching the world go by...
Come and experience this for yourself... you won’t regret it!!!
A true hidden gem of melbourne! Had the lamb burger and was amazing and will definitely be back and the service by everyone was great.. thanks guys!!
Cozy little restaurant hidden in one of Melbourne's laneways. I only went there because my partner is Mauritian and I wanted to try their cuisine. I can't say I disliked any if the dishes, but nothing was really outstanding for me. Service was friendly and attentive. Overall would be back!
The menu had plenty of options and staff were super attentive. I chose a couple of share dishes - including the beef brisket, prawns, taro balls and eggplant fritters. They were all generous in size and super tasty! The prawn and zucchini fritters are a must try - I'll be back! Thank you
Really friendly staff and reasonable prices. Can't wait until they get tap beer! Small and cozy, so get a table early. I'll certainly come back - and it's a perfect place for an afterwork catch-up with mates

For bar food, this place does go beyond your expectations: portion are reasonable for the price and definitely look out for their daily specials! #greatdeal!
Taro fritters:
This was recommended by the staff! She definitely know her thing. These little guys are amazing! The texture reminds me of lobster roll! So, it's like vegetarian lobster roll ! Definitely worth the go if you are a big fan of taro like myself
Fried Octopus tentacles:
The promotion is huge for a side ! Definitely a good deal. It's not too salty and goes well with the chilli mayo as it has a stronger kick of chilli compare to other places. The chewiness and the crisp. Well balanced
Mauritian fried noodle:
As a Malaysian, this reminds me mamak mee goreng. Taste was slightly bland, and noodles abit too dry. Didn't like it as much until.. the staff gave me garlic chilli sauce- garlic and chilli infused vinegar or so. Added that, and voila, the dish was good. Nothing beyond extraordinary but it was good. For $9 (originally: $18) daily specials, it's definitely value for the money as the portion could feed me two meals!
It's tucked away in flinders ln, very very hidden, and very very cozy especially upstairs. If you go in a group, I recommend you head upstairs and have a little party for yourself, could fit about 10 pax. It will be like having a party at your own home !
Very good service, professional and efficient staff! Excellent food to enjoy in good ambience! Don't forget to use Liven as it will give you a $50 bonus when you eat here! Will surely come back and recommend to my family and friends! Cheers :)
Wow! I was advised that there was a new chef with a new menu. Had a few friends come with me to try it out. Nothing short of amazing. We shared a few dishes and we found them all to be full of flavour and cooked to perfection. The chicken wings (my fav) are always juicy, the ribs fall off the bone beautifuly and the new parmasan aoli is something i need in ny fridge. Truely a hidden Melbourne gem 🍻🍲🍤
Nice dinner place that does tapas entree meals to share. Good selection of alcoholic beverages also.
nice and friendly staff and great food.
Great food from Mauritius.
You can call yourself lucky if you find it by accident.
And if someone have told you about it and you haven’t come... what are you waiting for.
We have the 5-entree package and 2 mains.
And if you like spicy you can ask for the Mauritian chili
