Victoria (Rabat)
From the linen-covered tables to the extensive wine list and menu of complex fusion dishes, Patrick's is polished and professional. Asian influences, New Zealand beef and fresh local fish all come together wonderfully in a nautical yet elegant blue-and-white dining room. The restaurant is consistently a worthy contender for one of Gozo's most popular eateries.
A six-course tasting menu is available from Monday to Friday but must be ordered 24 hours in advance.
