Au Fare - Port Vila

The best restaurant in port vila. a combination of general pizza restaurant and a gourmet French restaurant. if you want a good eating experience, then simply ignore the laminated pizza and salad menu and look for the daily double blackboard gourmet menu. we had the best time here and the professional and friendly waitress on the island works here, she is called suzy.

After spending most of our time in Vanuatu on smaller islands and enjoying island food, we decided to indulge a little on our return to Vila. We stopped by for pizza and cocktails. We were lucky enough to get a waterside seat and enjoy the pretty harbour views. We shared a pizza and it was just the right size for us. Cocktails were reasonably priced and oh so tasty!

I did a reservation for 2 and it was wonderful to seat at only 1m away from the water. Very exotic relaxing atmosphere , we admiring Port Vila by night and the fish in the water. But most important was the food!!! Fantastic Very good welcome!

Pretty decent woodfire pizzas, really tasty crusts but the toppings are a bit lacking. The Family pizza is quite large, I would say the regular size is a more traditional large size (my family pizzas were sticking out of the box). I got takeaway, but from what I could see the eat in experience looked quite nice.

This place is a total disgrace ! We had to wait 1h45 minutes to get our food delivered... yes it’s island time, but don’t take that concept too far. 30pax sitting in the restaurant, 5/6 chefs in the kitchen. Are you for real? Yes the staff apologised for it, and we got given some pate to munch on -which was really average quality, but at some point this is not acceptable! You can’t expect us to think you are being slammed. In regards to the food, well again total disaster ! We order the seafood platter, asked for the items to be GF, and everything came over cooked. What a shame !!!! We also think some of the seafood wasn’t fresh. We got a discount on our bill, 1000VATU -not even 10%, but we didn’t ask for it tbh, we just wanted to leave this place ASAP. We could tell the floor staff were embarrassed because of the situation, so I guess some people are aware of what’s going on....
