4.8 / 5.0(35 reviews)
We had a fantastic dinner here. The food was sensational, the drinks stunning and the service was some of the best we had in Fiji. The char sui pork with fried rice, sugar cane prawns and Vietnamese espresso martini are highly recommenced. A memorable night My husband and dined at Madame So last night with our toddler and had the most wonderful experience. The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, especially with vegetarian options, and the service was absolutely flawless. Every dish was beautifully presented and tasted impeccable. We honestly wish we could eat here every night. Highly recommend to anyone visiting Sofitel Fiji Pretty delicious Thai food with some Unique offerings. The duck was particularly good. Also they had some Unique non-alcoholic drinks which I appreciated. The only thing I didn't like is the lighting was too bright giving it a cafeteria feel just a little bit dimmer lighting at night would have given it a softer more elegant atmosphere. I also was not a fan of them not bringing serving spoons when they bring out the communal dishes and made it very hard to get things like the fried rice.

Nice Vietnamese food , family friendly. The food here was delicious, we enjoyed the Atlantic salmon sashimi, sea bass , and tempura prawns. The kids had rice, and fish n chips which they enjoyed. The atmosphere was fairly quiet and subdued but OK. If your kids are loud and cant sit still like mine then its hard to get them to conform. Kids over five only.

One of the best Vietnamese restaurants I've eaten at. Stand out in Fiji for service, quality of food, atmosphere and service. Also great for kids. Also I have coeliac disease and found the staff knowledgeable. Double bonus. Half the time I won't experience that in New Zealand.
