Celebrated table

Annabella's

Annabella's at Bel Ombre, Mauritius, holds a Wine Spectator Best of Award of Excellence – a mark of serious dining on the southern coast.

The story

Crafted with passion, served with love

A Table Worth Seeking Out

Annabella's sits along the Coastal Road at Bel Ombre, on the quieter southern stretch of Mauritius where the island sheds its resort-strip bustle and settles into something more composed. The address alone signals intent: this is not a casual beachside stop, but a destination for an evening worth planning around.

European Cuisine, Recognised at the Highest Level

The restaurant's European cuisine has earned it a Wine Spectator Best of Award of Excellence for 2025 — a distinction that reflects not just the food on the plate but the seriousness of the cellar behind it. Wine Spectator reserves this tier for restaurants that go meaningfully beyond a standard list, and Annabella's inclusion places it among a select group of dining rooms globally where the pairing of food and wine is treated as a discipline in itself.

European cooking in this corner of the Indian Ocean is a particular proposition: the discipline and structure of the tradition set against the warmth and produce of Mauritius. Annabella's is open for dinner, positioning itself firmly as an occasion restaurant — the kind of evening that earns its own memory.

The Setting

Bel Ombre is one of Mauritius's most unhurried corners, and a dinner at Annabella's fits that register: deliberate, refined, and worth the drive down the coastal road.
