Chez Maillot
About
Chez Maillot in Réunion sits at 6 Impasse de la Chapelle, Rle des Bras des Etangs, Cilaos 97413, Reunión, tucked into the mountain village of Cilaos. The island's interior is mountainous, and the Piton des Neiges rises above 3,000 metres, so the drive here climbs through highland terrain. This restaurant has earned a 4.9/5 rating from 546 reviews, placing it among the most talked-about tables in the area.
Réunionnais cooking blends Creole, French, Indian and Chinese influences, and curries are served over rice. Diners heading into the highlands will find the venue on a side street off the main village route, with Saint-Pierre, Le Tampon and Saint-Leu among the larger towns further down the island. First-time visitors can expect a small, locally rooted restaurant where the kitchen works within the Creole tradition that defines eating on Réunion.
The Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100066919865842 carries updates and contact details for anyone planning a meal. Réunion lies in the cyclone belt, and its cyclone season runs from November to April, so travel plans are best weighed against that window.
The airport sits in the north, and a coastal road runs much of the way round, making Cilaos reachable by road from the coast before the final climb inland.
