  1. Eat

    Family Restaurant

    Hunanese home cooking by Chinese for Chinese that doesn't pull its punches on the chillies. Try the braised hongshao pork belly (Chairman Mao's favorite dish), the steamed fresh snapper or the daily rice bowls. Cash only.

    Tue-Sun 10:00-21:00From 1300 VT

  2. Eat

    Kai Vanua

    Possibly the only sit-down restaurant in all of Vanuatu that serves a (slightly jazzed up) version of actual Ni-Vanuatu food in a lovely, rustic courtyard overflowing with greenery. Curries, ribs, steaks and tuna served with your choice of yam, manioc, taro or kumala. In addition, the Farmacy cafe here serves up coffee, smoothies and breakfast favorites.

    Mon-Fri 09:00-20:00Meal with drink from 1000 VT

  3. Eat

    L'Houstalet

    Likely the most famous restaurant in Vanuatu, l'Houstalet has been serving up an eclectic menu of "French Pacific" cuisine since 1973. The specialties here are lobster, coconut crab and civet de roussette, giant bat in red wine sauce. It's pricey for what you get, though, and service can be glacial.

    Daily 17:00-21:00Mains 2000 VT

  4. Eat

    Stonegrill

    Often ranked as Port Vila's top restaurant, the concept here is simple: steaks of premium Vanuatu beef that you grill to your liking on a sizzling hot stone. Basic steaks from under 2000 VT, but wagyu will set you back closer to 5000 VT.

    Daily 11:30-21:30

  5. Eat

    Three Pigs

    Casual garden restaurant that serves up the best tacos in Vanuatu, although this is admittedly not a terribly lofty bar. 500 VT tacos and 1000 VT margaritas on Taco Tuesday.

    Daily 11:30-21:00Tacos from 700 VT
