Prime Restaurant

Set on a private peninsula between a calm lagoon and the open Indian Ocean, PRIME occupies one corner of a resort built along a wide crescent of white sand in Flacq, Mauritius. The restaurant works as a contemporary grill, its kitchen turning out Mauritian seafood alongside Australian beef under the care of its grill-masters. It is a steakhouse first. The setting does the rest of the work: tropical gardens and coral reef lie within reach of the terrace, and the ocean air carries into the dining room through open sides. For gatherings, PRIME offers a private Chef's Table, with wine pairings and personalised service laid on for celebrations. Elsewhere on the property, sister restaurants RIVA and TAPASAKE cover Italian coastal and Japanese cuisine, while Le Badamier serves lighter fare in the shade of its namesake tree, giving guests a spread of registers across one stretch of coast. You can walk from a beachfront room to PRIME's tables in a few minutes, the reef and lagoon visible on the way. The resort holds 142 rooms in total, a scale that keeps the grill room from ever feeling crowded despite its renown among the property's dining outposts.
