We stayed in the hotel San Andrea which is linked to the restaurant. Food and service were good, varied menu. Would visit the restaurant again. However, bar opening times not as advertised.

Ottavo Senso by Capitan Spriss

Pizza, Food & Drink Our pizza is made from flour imported from Italy. The dough is left rising for a minimum of 48hrs and cooked in a wood-fire oven.

Reviewed By AttentiveTraveller

We were in Gozu for the day and came across this in Victoria when looking for somewhere to stop for breakfast. Although the menu was quite extensive, the food we ordered was definitely on the disappointing side, and not to mention pricey. I would instead go to one of the snack shops on the street, where the food is a whole lot nicer, and a fraction of the price.

Ta' Frenc Restaurant

The story of Ta’ Frenc as we know it today is the story of two very young men, Ino Attard and Lino Cefai, who, more than 30 years ago, recognised in the crumbling limestone walls of this centuries-old farmhouse, a possibility, a dream, a promise, a renais

We had our wedding here last week. It is the most beautiful venue. Joseph and his team couldn’t have done enough for us, the staff were so hard working and professional. All of our guests commented on how amazing the wedding meal was, it was so well presented and the best meal I’ve ever had in Gozo by far. Highly recommended if you are visiting Gozo and we’ll definitely by back 10/10 :)

Il Panzier Restaurant rated "excellent" by 63 travellers Sicilian home made cuisine,vegetarian,vegan and gluten free friendly

Reviewed By NayOates

We visited Il Panzier twice during our stay on Gozo - after our first experience of the four-cheese pasta, we had to come back for more! The tables are set in a covered garden, with a semi-open kitchen producing delicious, authentic Sicilian food. There were plenty of veggie options, and the owners (and their children!) were very friendly and hospitable. It's worth noting that they sometimes close a little early, and that there is a minimum spend of 25 euro per person at weekends.

La Stanza

La Stanza Restaurant is situated in a 400 year old farmhouse in a quiet outskirt of Victoria enjoying a vast view of the historic fortified Citadel from its terrace. La Stanza is not just a place in which we work, it is our passion. We want you to feel we

La Stanza was able to accommodate our group of 10 (six adults and four children) with a last minute Saturday night booking. We had a table on the upstairs patio with the Citadel as our backdrop. The food was excellent. The beef carpaccio, risotto and rabbit ragu with homemade pasta were standouts. Service was very friendly and they were great with the kids. The restaurant has a lovely atmosphere and we enjoyed watching fireworks and the Citadel lit up at night from our table.

Outstanding location. Attended the wine tasting with five course. Food and wine tasting was hosted by a passionate chef, who guided us through eight different wines. As I said, the chef was extremely passionate about both the wine and the gorgeous food. Prior to his we went on the walking tour, which we enjoyed as the guide was very informative. Enjoyed the evening a great deal.

Myself & my partner had the maltese board starter which had enough food to be shared between 4 easily, it had various cheeses, olives, tomatoes & breads etc and was lovely and tasty! I then had the seafood pasta which was brimming with king prawns, clams & mussels, very tasty and a huge serving of pasta with a light sauce of white wine & garlic which went perfectly with the seafood. Partner had the vegetarian ravioli and loved it, all the food was tasty and huge portions! Didn't have a pudding as we were too full but all options sounded and looked fantastic! 2 courses, a bottle of wine & a bottle of water was around 40 euros which we thought was well priced.Dear Guest,Primarily I would like to thank you for you kind feedback. We are pleased to read you enjoyed your dinner experience. We sincerely hope to see you again during your next stay in Malta.Sincerely,Martha
