Venus

We visited this restaurant in April of this year and were totally in awe of the standard of food and service. Had to return, this time October 2026 on our return visit to Malta. The food experience is absolutely outstanding from beginning to end. Congratulations Venus. I wish we could take you all home to Belfast, Ireland with us. 👏👏👏

Absolutely fantastic and welcoming service, leading to incredible food. We have ordered a bottle of wine for our 10th anniversary l, they did not let our glasses go empty. Staff were checking if we are happy with everything, and we are. Everything spot on, we do recommend! Calamari starter absolutely amazing, so was the octopus, for the main, fantastic duck for hubby, but by rabbit rolade was a masterpiece! 100% recommended!

On our last evening in Malta we chanced upon Venus Restaurant and I am so glad we did. The ambience, service and quality is up there with some of the best Michelin restaurants I’ve eaten in. We’ve enjoyed some fabulous meals during our holiday but this was truly the best one. The highlight for me was the Prawn and Pistachio Linguini and the Mqaret (traditional Maltese Date Pastries). An absolute MUST visit!

Stunning! From the warm welcome at the start to the goodbye at the end a really wonderful night with excellent food. Found Venus on our second night and booked for our last night before we had ordered dessert. A really good menu along with a specials board everything explained and help offered in choosing. I can't imagine this place will be bettered for the rest of our holiday. If you are looking for a fabulous meal book a table here. See you Friday boys!
Additional review after second visit: Amazing! Staff remembered us from earlier in the week and food was superb. Can't say anything more than to say an excellent restaurant, from the food to the team. A must visit if you are in the area!

An absolutely outstanding dining experience! Everything was simply perfect, especially the incredible value for money. The risotto was delicious and a fantastic vegetarian option. The meat and fish dishes were both first-class and prepared to perfection. The strawberry mocktails were refreshing, beautifully presented, and absolutely delightful.

We will definitely be coming back again with our entire family!

Outstanding experience at Venus. The food was excellent, but the service was truly exceptional. Our main waiter was a true maître d'hôtel—professional, attentive, knowledgeable, and effortlessly making every guest feel welcome.

The entire team deserves recognition; honestly, they should win an award for service. Combined with the fantastic food, this was one of the best dining experiences of our trip.

Highly recommended.

We ordered red prawns and oysters for appetizer. Fresh and delicious. Lobster for the main. Half grilled and half cooked with pasta. Best seafood in town. The brothers served us very well. Highly recommended.

The food here was absolutely delicious! The pistachio pasta was exquisite, and the portion size was very generous. The oyster was incredibly fresh and smelled like the sea. The octopus was so soft it literally melted in our mouths. The fish soup was also outstanding. We are truly grateful for the opportunity to have such a wonderful dinner here.
Just a quick tip for families: the kids' menu isn't explicitly listed on the official menu, but you can always ask the owner about options for children. They will happily prepare something without any problem - for example, pasta with tomato sauce or classic chicken nuggets with fries.
Highly recommend this place!
