One of my favorite restaurants. It is a quaint restaurant nestled in Mgarr Harbour. In fact, many visitors to Gozo get off the ferry from Malta and the restaurant is their first stop to get some dinner. I’ve eaten there probably about eight times, several of which I’ve brought my family, so I’ve sampled much off the food and all of it has been delicious. I recommend being seated outside because the view of the Harbour is spectacular. If you decide to go, you must make a reservation, as it is a popular restaurant - not just with tourists, but with the Maltese, as well. Parking can be a little tricky so give yourself an extra 15 minutes. I promise it will not disappoint. They have a sister restaurant in Rabat, Gozo called The Patrick. It also serves exceptional food, but is a more romantic choice.

Patrick's Lounge, Restaurant & Steakhouse

Reviewed By StephanieAtt

Visited last Saturday with my family. We enjoyed our evening in a warm atmosphere with, as usual, outstanding cuisine. Patrick's is one of our favorite restaurants to visit, always offering a nice ambiance, great service and a top class wine range. If you're planning on going on a Saturday evening, I suggest booking in advance to have indoor Seating. We booked late and were seated in the outdoor garden area which had a canopy and was heated. This area is a designated smoking area for diners, however our dinner was still enjoyable and we almost preferred the quiet and private Seating. Our choice of dishes for starters were Risotto, Fried Brie pillow, Salt and Pepper Squid and Chicken liver parfait. For main courses we chose Duck Breast which was fantastic, tasty and very tender, Fillet of beef and Tomahawk for two. For dessert we had the lemon tart, creme brule, apple tart and the special of the day, the bread and butter pudding. Well done Patrick as always! To enjoy a real steakhouse, don't miss out on this restaurant. They know how to get top quality meat cuts and know the secrets of cooking them to perfection!

Oleander

Reviewed By WilfredtheHairy - Xaghra, Malta

We spent wonderful four days in Xaghra and Oleander was our favorite restaurant. It had a good menu offering daily specials featuring local fare to delight any foodie. Outdoor dining at night in this beautiful plaza was unforgettable. Don't forget to visit the Cathedral, the inside is not to be missed.

This is my absolute favourite restaurant in Gozo. Impeccable service, amazing food, great location and atmosphere.. what more can you ask for?? If you are lucky to visit when the weather is good enough, the view outside is unparalleled. If not, the restaurant inside is cosy and gorgeous just the same.

The Clubhouse

The clubhouse -Burger 804<br>As a Gozitan I always dreamt of all those burger joints we watch on American tv having the best mouth watering burgers with all the ingredients you wish for not just the typical salad and cheese.Growing up the idea still in my head but telling the truth it was in the back of my mind but realistically thought it will never happen. 2011 was the beginning of the clubhouse a local football club in Ghajnsielem which caught our eye as a primary location for our first time business experience. With just a huge renovation and a basic menu made from scratch we began our adventure trying to built a local clientele and a maltese base clients.<br>With just 7 years of experience in this industry we started the first year and have to say it turned out to be successful with a simple basic menu.as the first year had gone by we started to think of how can we even get our business even bigger and after some thinking it was clear that my childhood dream although it had faded a little was to become a reality. After some thinking I just made a pretty vast menu in burgers and from the two burgers we had initially on the first menu we went to 14 burgers. In the meantime we started making our own patties with an 80/20 meat to fat ratio.<br><br>The new burger menu went down well with our customers,maltese started raving about our quality and cost of our new burgers. Witness of this is our great comments we have on trip advisor page. After the sucsess we had with the burgers it was our time now to give something back to those in need, in December 2014 we broke the record for the biggest burger in the maltese island with the record standing a 98kg we wrote our name in the maltese record books, with the same burger being sold and all proceedings went to puttinu foundation.<br><br>2016 was the year for another menu change we introduced some new traditional dishes such as braised lamb,horse stew,octopus stew.We went from dry pasta to fresh home made garganelli and spaghetti,we introduced also the marinara pancakes,stuffed pork loin and Chicken Roulade along with our daily fresh soup and weekly specialities mosty meat.<br><br>As we start 2017 our aim will continue to be upgrading our services and always giving you the best<br><br>Rubert Azzopardi<br>Chef patron.
