A really nice, new, welcoming place, polite staff, good food standard, but kitchen struggles to serve within decent time frames if the place is full.We booked a table of eight on a Saturday night and within 10 minutes of being seated, we had ordered our starters and mains. Our starters appeared after 45 minutes, and our mains were served after 1 hour 15 mins after our starter plates were cleared...and we had to ask the staff whether they had an idea of when our mains were expected...Clearly the kitchen could not cope with the volume, including the extra tables placed outside...When one considers the pricing of some of the items (burger @€19.50) this place is not cheap. But when a long wait is compounded in having your main dish (in our case duck) not cooked properly, then this becomes a really bad situation....To be fair, the head waitress serving our table (after all the restaurant witnessed her putting up with another incident by probably another impatient customer) did notice that the duck was not eaten and said that this will be deducted from our bill, together with any complimentary desserts and liqueur, which we had.Our bill arrived, I gave it a glance to see whether the duck was removed (it was) and we paid up. Looking at the bill again at home, we found out that we were charged for a second bottle of white wine (which we didn't have) @€25... by coincidence, the price of the duck main...an genuine error or sneaky intention?If it wasn't for the fact that we were enjoying a long awaited family reunion, in a new, nicely decorated place with polite (but helpless) staff, one would think twice on revisiting, especially on busy days.The place has real potential, but they must solve their kitchen capability to cope. Otherwise if they want to become just another pizza place, they will lose out on restaurant patrons that are willing to pay a little extra for some really good new idea dishes.

Oleander

Visited this restaurant on our first night with friends on the off chance!Excellent service, food and the general ambiance is good.Starters were out of this world grilled calamari which was so tasty and tender.For our mains:Two of us had the local fish “ lam puki” which was “ filleted” at the table and the other two had rib eye steak all served with fresh vegetables.Overall the meal was very reasonably priced with very generous portions.Highly recommend what a find. Could not fault.

Sicilia Bella

Just had an excellent lunch there with 2 Maltese friends. We chose a wonderful fresh fish from the display and were not disappointed. It was superb! We started with mussels and lobster pasta and enjoyed a wonderful white wine from Sicily which was just perfect. Highly recommended. Well done to all concerned!

We had a really nice experience at Fliegu as the owner and staff were welcoming and they always welcomed us with a big smile. The view towards Malta and Comino were amazing. The pizza was one of the best that we had on the island, cooked in the authentic stone oven and the pasta portions were so massive that we couldn't finish it. we can definitely recommend this place when you visit Gozo.Thank you from all of us!

Reviewed By Paul D

We ate here many times and found Veranda to be a very nice location comfortable and lovely views out to sea. The quality of the food was good and everything was very tadty. Service was very good, although when one particular head waitress is in charge, the minute you have your glass or plate empty, she is straight down to you wanting to know what else you would like, some people may find this a bit pressuring you in to either making another order or trying to get you out. Personally we leave when we are finished, but some people may see this as a negative. All the other waitresses werevery pleasant and gave good service. Recommended.

Order 3 meals one was a starter position and came up as a main course the ordered 2 pizzas we had a starter then we eat one piece of each pizza and wanted to take the rest away when we asked where our pizza was he said in the trash what is the meaning of can we take it away ? We couldn’t believe the way we were treated no apologies just that the waiter just couldn’t be bother to listen to what we wanted. Unbelievable my husband is Maltese and we have never been treated like this before and they wanted the bill to be paid in full. Never go back again.

Went here the other evening based on the reviews... well I’m not sure how it has such a high rating here other than the location. We were there at least two hours and we only had a main course! Service seems very disjointed and the food was very very bland. We had to ask for our bill after being left sat there for ages despite making it known we wanted to pay. Poor food and poor service.Dear Sir / Madam Thanks for the rating as well the review that we had left us. Sorry we did not meet your expectations., We try our best to meet everyone expectations, but sometimes, it seems that is impossible to do so . We analyze all the reviews are are taking into considerations. Can you please email us back, to see what happened. You email is an asset to us. Looking forward to hear from you.
