Local tip
Smart-casual clothing suits the evening service, while swimwear should be covered in the restaurant.

Vasco’s Buffet Restaurant is the main dining venue at STORY Seychelles on Mahé Island in Seychelles. Set beside the sea, the restaurant combines a bright, open-air design with indoor and al fresco seating. Contemporary décor, natural light and a breezy oceanfront atmosphere give the space a relaxed resort character suited to both daytime and evening dining.

Breakfast and dinner are served in buffet format, with live cooking stations adding an interactive element to the meal. The cuisine brings together international favourites and flavours associated with Creole cooking, creating a varied selection for different tastes. Local influences sit alongside familiar dishes, making the restaurant suitable for diners seeking a broad choice rather than a narrowly focused menu.

Evening service follows a changing themed format. International, Creole and Asian influences feature across the dinner programme, giving return visits a different culinary direction. The rotating themes also provide an opportunity to explore food connected with the islands while retaining accessible options from international cuisine.

Vasco’s suits resort guests looking for a convenient breakfast or a relaxed dinner in an oceanfront setting. The buffet style works well for families and mixed groups, as diners can choose from a range of dishes and enjoy the meal at their own pace. The live stations add movement to the dining room without changing its informal atmosphere.

Breakfast has a casual resort feel, while dinner calls for smart-casual dress. Swimwear is not suitable for either service without appropriate cover-ups, and beachwear, sleeveless shirts and flip-flops are not recommended in the evening. Indoor and outdoor seating allow the setting to work in different weather conditions, with the al fresco area adding a closer connection to the sea.

Vasco’s Buffet Restaurant is a practical choice for visitors staying at STORY Seychelles who want varied food in one location. Its combination of international and Creole cuisine, themed evenings, buffet service and live preparation creates an easygoing dining experience with a distinctly oceanfront setting.
