Moorea Restaurant Guide: Handy suggestions for dining in Moorea


Le Bateau

Ask your hotel to make reservations and organize a taxi to deliver you to Le Bateau restaurant. Anchored permanently, Le Bateau (The Boat) continues to be a regional classic. This vintage boat has cleverly been converted into a restaurant and bar! Upon boarding this vessel, the waitresses, donned in pareos and fresh flowers, present the menu with an array of choices from the local waters. Be sure that someone in your party tries the fish with the native "Vanilla sauce" or better yet, be daring and try the spicy "Devil sauce!"




Blue Pineapple
The very popular "Blue Pineapple" moved their operation to the Club Bali Hai Pool Bar on May 18th after losing everything to a fire last May. They are an immediate success; serving breakfast and lunch 7AM to 3PM daily. Yes, those monster pancakes, poisson cru, grilled hamburgers, fish dishes, omelets and super fries are still available.




Le Pecheur
(The Fisherman)
Under new management we hear. Some fancy seafood specialties. Free pick up.

Closed Wednesday.



Le Sud
(The South)
A new restaurant that we hear good things about in the village of Maharepa. Nicely lit with a varied menu. Next to the banks across from the shopping area where the post office is. They do not pick up or accept credit cards yet, but the food is well recommended.



Allo Pizza
The favorite with all is "Allo Pizza", that is all they do, make great pizza and they deliver, allow a half hour or so. Or, if you are walking, turn left out of the Club, ten minute walk, you will see their oven on the right.
Closed Mondays.
Tel: 561822

The Mahogany
Excellent varied menu from steaks to Chinese to local delicacies at reasonable prices. New tables outside in a nice atmosphere. Francois, who was formerly the Chef at the Hotel Bali Hai, knows what you like. Call them for pick up.
Closed Wednesday. Good wine and beers.



Alfredo's
Across the street from the Club, a one minute walk. The Club's favorite and rightfully so. Soup, Alfredo's salads, pick your own live lobster in the tank, other sea foods, steaks and of course, some great Italian dishes. On Sundays and Thursdays arrive early as there is music and singing, you join in. The amiable Christian runs it all, you can't miss him.
Closed Monday.



Snack Rotui
At the foot of Cook's Bay, a 15 minute walk from the Club Bali Hai. They are open daily (except Monday) from 7,30am to 5pm (on Sunday they open at 8am). Sell sandwiches, fried chicken, cakes, soft drinks, and daily luncheon plates, etc.



Restaurant Chez Jean Pierre
You'd never guess by the name, but this is a good Chinese restaurant just 10 minutes by foot from the Club Bali Hai. Just past the restaurant "Honu Iti (The Little Turtle).
Closed Sunday noon, Monday night and all day Wednesday.
The Cocotier
A surprise, and delightful small restaurant set in a Tahitian garden. Two charming happy Tahitian girls will greet and serve you. The menu is exquisite as are the wines. Don't miss the Mahi mahi with almonds dish. Pascal the owner/chef who does everything, will stop by to see you. You may have to chip in on the pick up vehicle, it's worth it. Moderate prices.
Closed Tuesday.



The Little Turtle
Make absolutely sure that you plan a 5 minute walk at least one night to Roger's The Little Turtle. Don't call for a pick-up, they are too busy giving excellent service from a first class menu. Take a table on the verandah (they call it the terrace), look at the fish under the light below and contemplate the menu accompanied by excellent wines.
Open 7 nights, you will return.



Chez Claudine et Jules
A great little food wagon located at the main dock beside the Fish Market. Take-away or eat there. Good prices and generous portions. A popular eating place for the Moorea residents.
Closed Mondays. Open 6pm to 8.30pm.
