Xaghra’s highest rated restaurant (and rated 4th highest on the island) is away from the centre, located just a few hundred metres down the road from the Blue House. Gianni’s offer a mix of Italian and Thai inspired dishes with a Mediterranean twist. It’s the perfect spot for those who like to dine around sunset, with its prime location offering a full panorama of Xaghra and the sea.

If your looking to relax in front of the TV with a good film, Iz-Zajbra offers pizza and just next door you can rent a DVD from Victor's - this makes for a tasty and low cost evening in. If you want a change of scenery from eating in Xgahra, if you venture out of Xaghra there are a number of alternatives - your only a 10 minute journey from anywhere on Gozo! You’ll be spoilt for choice at Marsalforn Bay as there are a number of fantastic little restaurants dotted around. Pierre’s, Il-Kartell and Piùtrentanove Lounge Bar are popular amongst tourists, offering a good mix of cuisines to suit all tastes. Many of our customers have given great reviews of Otters Bistro, which is located a little further out than the rest, nestled by St. Anthony’s Chapel and offering a true taste of Gozo.

To the west is Xlendi where again everything is focussed around the bay. Ta' Karolina is the most liked restaurant in the area and offers a good mix of Gozo style food that will keep even the most fussy eaters happy. If you enjoy seafood you’ll want to get a table at The Boat House, which sits right down by the water.
