We had here noodles and chicken curry. Both were very average. In total I think 5 people were serving our table. Very hectic. The waiters and waitresses were not very welcoming and kind. I understand that the place is cheap but a little bit of smile would not hurt.

LA ROUGAILLE CREOLE, 2 mains, 2 rum cocktails, 1 small local beer, 2 low calorie colas: MUR1780 (US$50, £41, AED180)Creole food is many things to many people: Afro-Brazilian, US Louisiana, Seychellois, Criollo. Itâs a big brush, a broad roof to house a people rooting back to colonial immigration. Europeans leaving to settle in Africa, Latin America, my West Indies and the Southern United States. Itâs the slave trade triangle, an ethnic diaspora and the resulting melange of people, food and language. So step forward La Rougaille Creole: a seafood Mauritian creole restaurant tucked a back street in Grand Baie (or Grand Bay). I asked a shop owner if it was a good place to eat great local food: she smiled and nodded which was all the approval I needed. Itâs a modest restaurant with honey-wooden furniture and sunset orange walls. The menu welcomes you to the restaurant calling out that itâs focus in clearly creole and angels towards seafood. We needed no further signalling - we were picking up what theyâre putting down. Other options are available should someone in your group not care for creole nor seafood (but it makes this place an odd choice!). We opted for the curried fish with aubergine and a curried crab with aubergine. The waiter warned me that itâs a delicious dish but the crab is cooked whole and it takes some time. My inner id was triggered; wide eyed and anxious. The scarlet crabs dipped in yellow curry arrive chopped into segments accompanied with rice, salad and a type of soft, local yellow pumpkin. Itâs a plate nostalgia served without ceremony but with personal significance. Iâll spare you the personal journey of this dish (which takes easily an hour to finish properly). The aubergine is a very pleasant addition that lends little flavour itself but serves as an obedient sponge to dutifully absorb this unctuous curry sauce. The crabâs distinct natural sweetness balances the dish out. If you are reluctant to fish every morsel of crab, you get 80% of what you need in the meaty crab backs and claws. The backs are soft and tear apart easily with you hands. Oh yes, this is a dish for your hands. It comes with a crab claw cracker and spike, which is thoughtful. There is no discernible coconut milk in this dish which is no big loss. It means the sauce is more prominent and it doesnât dull the crab. The fish curry is another generous dish but considerably easier to eat. The long slices of aubergine plays a grassy role. Coconut milk would be a good addition to this dish to bring it all together and provide some richness. I should mention we were given a complimentary starter of deep fried aubergine slices in a thick batter with a citrusy-sour-meet-spicy dipping sauce. The unseasoned batter and naturally bland aubergine are unremarkable leaving it all to the tangy spicy dipping sauce to make a mark. To wash this all down we indulged in Phoenix, a local Mauritian beer, and two rum cocktails made with fresh juice. Service is friendly and quick: this is not always a given based on some horror stories we learned from other travellers.Would I return to La Rougaille Creole?I admit nostalgia played a heavy hand in this experience. But it delivered. Nostalgia is a fickle mistress; sometimes makes you a voracious critic when authenticity fails to be achieved. It can also put the wind in the wings of a dish unintentionally triggering memories. I would definitely return nonetheless to find the courage to resist that crab dish and eat more of the menu. Should you go to La Rougaille Creole?Yes, you should step away from the hotel fodder including their sanitised renditions of creole food. #creole #mauritius #mauritianfood #crab #beer #cocktails #curry

We were amongst the first to arrive and be seated so things started off nicely but once the restaurant started filling up it was a completely different story. We had to wait over 1.5hrs for our main course to come and that's despite informing the waiter. All he had to say to us was "it's coming" well... all the tables around me were getting served but poor old me was left hanging. You'd think that after making me wait so long they'd double check before sending out the food but nopes... food was overcooked, the duck was so rubbery you could barely cut it with the knife. Completely unacceptable, to avoid at all costs. Terrible terrible experience.Dear guest,Weâre very sorry to hear that you had a bad experience in our restaurant. Itâs our goal to deliver the highest quality of service to all of our customers . Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us. We will take the necessary measures to rectify this situation and we hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you very soon.Best regards,Jean PierreOwner /Director

We have been spent 1 month here in Mauritius (and last year 3 weeks), travelling for 2200 km all around , visiting all the beaches in both coasts and always eat in restaurants on the beaches both for lunch and dinner.Itâs good that the Kiosque brings to you the food directly to the beach , but 55⬠(2500 rupees) for a dish of grilled seafood not including lobster itâs a fortune (also in Europe... letâs imagine here in Mairitius!!!! ) Just consider that in one of the most beautiful restaurant of the Island (Domain Anna in Flick en Flack) you pay 35⬠for the same plate, in an amazing location (you can check it directly here in Trip Advisor), including Southern Africa white wine with a table on the water and 1 dedicated waiter for you.

Iâve been coming here for 25 years every time I visit the island and Chez Ram never disappoints. The fresh caught, grilled Lobster here is simply the best Iâve ever tasted ... ANYWHERE.This place deserves a Michelin star for its simple yet exquisite cuisine. Crab Gratin is another exceptional dish and the Salade dâOurite (octopus salad) is âsensationelleâ.Thank you family Coolen for your insatiable desire to deliver the best fresh food in the region. You are the best!!
