Venus Restaurant Bugibba

Amazing experience!! Owner and his son are very attentive and involved in every aspect of dinner experience. Lobster and fish was fresh, watched them take it out of the tank or holder in front of us. Best food we had the entire 7 day stay in Malta. A must try if you love seafood, family-owned businesses, and good atmosphere.

It's a nice restaurant with authentic food, and the service was super. The meny reflects local ambition with quality and high standards. We will surely come back and taste other dishes, tonight's focus was on the rabbit. I strongly recommend it!

Hands down one of the best restaurants I’ve tried when visiting family on the island. Dishes were delectable and picking a favourite is tricky. Attentive service by the father and son who own the restaurant and other knowledgeable members of staff, and while the food took a bit long to arrive in between courses, we didn’t mind as the atmosphere was pleasant and we were satisfied with the food. The owner took the time to explain to us the specials and recommendations from the menu. We spent around 60-65€ per person, which is reasonable for the amount and quality of food we ordered. Would definitely recommend 👍🏻

This restaurant is an absolute gem! The family who owns it is so friendly and welcoming, you feel like part of the family yourself. The food was amazing – every dish was a hit, full of fresh ingredients and fantastic flavors. The service was outstanding, with the staff going above and beyond to ensure we had a great experience. Plus, the location is perfect, making it a great spot for any occasion.

This was my second time dining at this restaurant, and I must say I loved it. I will definitely be coming back. The seafood linguine, which I’ve had on both occasions, stands out. The flavour of the pasta is perfectly blended with the seafood, which is just spot on. The fish carpaccio is also excellent, and if you ask, they can prepare it with a mix of octopus, salmon, and other fish without any problem. The service is excellent throughout. During our first visit, we also tried the octopus, and although it was quite good, I would have preferred if it were prepared in the style we do in Spain, grilled with oil, so I leave that as a suggestion. My companion had the ravioli and commented that, while tasty, they were expecting a bit more flavour compared to my linguine. The service may be a bit slower than expected, but I believe that’s a sign everything is freshly prepared, which is reflected in the quality of the dishes. Plus, if you’re enjoying a conversation, the wait isn’t an issue, as they serve some bread as an appetiser. The crème brûlée for dessert was delightful. Overall, everything was great, and as I’ve mentioned, we returned again, and I will certainly be back.

The service at Venus is top-notch, exuding class and professionalism. The staff is attentive, friendly, and always ready to ensure you have an unforgettable dining experience. Having dined here every day during our stay, we had the opportunity to try every item on the menu, and we were never disappointed. The seafood, in particular, stands out – it’s simply the best we’ve ever had. Each dish is prepared with the freshest ingredients and presented beautifully, making each meal a delightful experience. Pricing at Venus is fair, striking a perfect balance between quality and cost. While it isn’t the cheapest option, it certainly isn’t overly expensive either. Additionally, their wine list is impressive, offering a wide selection of affordable yet high-quality wines to complement your meal. Overall, Venus Restaurant is a must-visit if you find yourself in Malta. With its cozy atmosphere, exceptional service, outstanding food, and fair pricing, it easily earns a 5 out of 5 from me. I can’t recommend it enough!

We recently dined at this restaurant during peak summer season and was thoroughly impressed. The food was exceptional, bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. Despite the busy dinner rush, the service was top-notch, with the staff being both attentive and efficient. The hands-on owners really stood out, adding a personal and welcoming touch to the experience. We sat outside at a well-lit table, which was comfortable, though the surrounding area wasn’t the best—but this didn’t detract from the overall experience. I highly recommend this restaurant for its excellent food, service, and warm atmosphere.

The food is by far the best on the island. The staff are so friendly and they welcome you with open arms. Choices are many and I recommend the Beef Wellington
