La Scala — Italian / Creole Fine Dining, Mahé
La Scala is a renowned restaurant in Seychelles known for its high-end Italian cuisine with a Creole influence. Run by chef Gianni Torsi and his wife Silvana, it has been building a reputation for years as the most accomplished European-influenced kitchen on the island — reservations are advisable due to its popularity, which reflects the consistent quality of the cooking and the warmth of the family-run hospitality.
The cooking takes Italian fine dining as its technical foundation and allows the Seychellois Creole influence to inform the ingredient selection and the flavour language: the pasta prepared in the Italian manner with the Indian Ocean seafood that the island provides, and the desserts of the Italian confectionery tradition applied with the tropical fruits of the Seychellois landscape.
The wine programme is Italian and serious: the producers of Tuscany and Piedmont alongside the broader Italian selection that a restaurant of this quality demands.
La Scala is the Mahé restaurant for those who want the refinement of Italian fine dining in the most beautiful island setting in the Indian Ocean.
