Chez Alice is a no-frills, home-style restaurant serving solid Creole classics in one of Réunion’s most beautiful villages. Located in Hell-Bourg, right near the heart of the action but never trying too hard to impress, it’s the kind of place locals eat and hikers refuel.
You’ll find:
Caris and rougails done the old-fashioned way — especially cari poulet, rougail saucisse, and cari poisson
Gratin de chouchou and lentils as staple sides
House chili on the table — punchy, homemade, not for the timid
Local ti-punch or a Dodo beer if you want to settle in
Décor is basic, but service is warm, and the portions are generous without being touristy. It's walkable from anywhere in the village and especially satisfying after a morning hike.
👉 Local tip: Sit on the terrace if the weather’s good — it's one of the few spots in Hell-Bourg where you can eat outside with a view of the peaks.
