Our story
In the heart of Grand Baie, behind a discreet sign, a tropical garden. Plants, flowers, birds, green geckos hiding in the leaves. In the middle, a table.
Here a Mediterranean cuisine awaits you in a warm, family atmosphere inherited from the South of France. Local fish, a sushi bar, and one of the most complete wine lists in the North. Olivier and Warren are part of the faces of Le Poivrier. A little Provençal paradise in the middle of the Indian Ocean.
The experience
Three pillars, one common thread: take your time. At Le Poivrier we don't serve quickly, we serve just right.

An absolutely perfect experience from start to finish. A real gem for anyone who refuses to choose between gastronomic finesse and generosity.
By far the best restaurant in Grand Baie. Generous portions, taste and quality on the plate. I've found my favourite restaurant.
Great atmosphere, fantastic welcome, exceptional food, and an excellent wine selection. A classic of the North to book.
