Restaurant Vieille Rouge — Restaurant in Isle Mauritius

Busy place, exceptionally slow and unattended service, very long wait for food to arrive and everything we ask we get promised it will be served soon Table cloth were not replaced when we were seated. It was full of crumbes and dirty

Phoenix beer were cold. But took a while to arrive, it is clear the place were u der staff

Prawn croquettes were good but the wait was way too long

Grilled capitaine fish was excellent and highly recommended

Octopus curry was a tad cheesy and too soft the octopus, not the best octopus curry on the island

The place could do...

The place seems cozy and family style, including a live music show… but then service not at top. The waitress was a bit stressed and came saying “order will take a while” but not even with a “sorry” or “would you like a drink or so?” Then order of course took 30 min. / The second waiter, tbh, what was he doing there? “I don’t take orders” and was just walking around, almost lost. The cherry… paying the bill. Another grumpy face, adding a random item to the bill. Check before paying! Food, though, was nice. Singing show added an extra good value...

First of all food is great, that's for sure. HOWEVER , you have to be a really patient person to enjoy your night here. Patient as in, 30-40 minutes of waiting to give order, 20-30 minutes of waiting to ask for check. Not to mention more than an hour of cooking, which I don't even mind. There were around 30 people in the restaurant and only ONE waiter trying to serve everyone. He was trying his best so much, I felt bad for the guy and didn't complain to him. I hope business owner cares what people think and hire at least 1...
