Island Babe Healthy Food — Restaurant in Isle Mauritius

The ambiance and the pancakes were truly the highlights of our visit — they deserve recognition. Unfortunately, the rest of the experience left much to be desired.

Upon arrival, we were greeted by a waitress with an unwelcoming attitude, insisting we sit indoors despite the garden being completely empty. From there, the service only deteriorated: we waited 35 minutes just to receive two juices and a coffee. Ten minutes later, our food finally arrived — cold.

Throughout our time there, it became clear that rudeness wasn’t directed just at us — the staff were consistently dismissive and unprofessional with every table around us. It felt like basic hospitality was completely missing. The situation escalated further when the tension between the staff and a customer boiled over into a visible altercation, making the atmosphere even more uncomfortable for everyone present.

When it came time to pay, we encountered another frustrating situation. The staff were gathered around the cashier area, gossiping about a table that had complained about their cold food. Instead of focusing on improving service, they decided to delay the overall service for everyone — including us and several others who were simply trying to settle our bills and leave.

Sadly, this experience overshadowed the location’s true potential. I sincerely hope the management takes these issues seriously and provides proper training, because with the right team and attitude, this place could genuinely thrive. For now, I would not recommend it, and I will not...

This place should be called "Island Babe Great Atmosphere and Veggies" instead of "Healthy Food"

Music is great, atmosphere is great but that's about it. I ordered Quinoa Chicken, asked the waitress if there's a lot of chicken in it, she said yes absolutely!

Plate comes fast, food looks great, lots of greenery but it was a bowl of Quinoa (surely cooked and stored in the fridge for convenience), lots of greeneries, veggies and A FEW TINY pieces of chicken!!

I ask what the hell is that and the waitress tells me I was supposed to get 150g of chicken 😂😂 While I got a max of 10g of chicken.

I don't mind paying at all, but I don't like to pay to get scammed.

Taste wise I'd give a 3 on 10, salad dressing tasted amazing in the first bites but when you eat more, taste is gone since there's no more salad dressing.

Plus eating healthy means eating good amounts of protein and balanced meals ... I don't know where they read that 10g of chicken was enough for a healthy meal.

To finish, healthy means cooked fresh ... not cooked and stored in the fridge like the tiny pieces of chicken I got ... specially for the price!!

I also bought a dish called PROTEIN WRAP cause I needed proteins ... where again I got a wrap from the supermarket, lots of veggies and not more than 70 grams for sure

Very disappointed, terrible value for money 👎

They deducted 1Euro from my bill for the issue about the...

Right so I rarely leave negative reviews but I really feel I have to. The food was fine, place was cute BUT we waited over 40mins for the food and when it did arrive it came in weird chunks so we were sitting with cold toast for 30mins before the eggs with it decided to turn up. We asked for the bill, another 20mins go by and get told by various harried looking staff that someone else was bringing it. Decide to go up to the till in the hopes that someone will take our money and release us, only to find the owner herself there. Amazing. But alas. She asked how everything was and we said the food was fine but that she was clearly severely understaffed. Her response, verbatim - 'well you've come on a Sunday and it's busy on Sundays. Next time come on a weekday.' Maybe don't open on Sundays if you refuse to hire the right number of people. The poor staff were sprinting between tables like headless chickens, zero empathy from the owner. 0/10 do not recommend, Bloom is nearby with a larger range of options and much...
