A good cultural experience - The unique venue, the fast and friendly service, the delcious 4 course menu, with choices, and the traditional folk dancing all contributed to a really enjoyable night. The host ensured that everyone felt welcome and got into the party mood. Efficient pick up and drop off too. We recommend this activity as something fun and different.

Delightful way to spend your night - FANTASTIC. Most important: the food was phenomenal and there was so much of it. I felt like I needed to be rolled home at the end. If they do the squid when you go, you must opt for that. I will dream about it for months. The manager of the restaurant was a delight - a wonderful host for the night. When we arrived, the restaurant was fairly empty and we were sat with the others who had used restaurant transport. That was unexpected but despite a language barrier, my seat mates were a delight. The music! We were treated to local guitarists who played both traditional and popular hits (Beatles, jazz, etc.), and then the manager introduced the dancers, who were beautiful and put on a stunning show. After that, the music turned to dance hits (such as Mamma Mia and It’s Raining Men and everyone was invited to the dance floor. This was a highlight of my trip - sign up! It’a well worth the money.

Great - Dancing was amazing and hosts were superb. Lovely family run restaurant. Four courses of food. My daughter loved the food, me not so much because I’m vegetarian. Two of the four courses were meat only-that said it didn’t spoil the overall experience.

Great Experience - It was a very enjoyable evening. We had lovely conversations with strangers at nearby tables, really appreciated the service and enjoyed the food. The one thing I think might be done is to highlight what is on the menu. A couple of people around me were really put off by the horsemeat.

Great atmosphere, great... - Great atmosphere, great family business, perfectly organized, absolutely recommend. Be aware that the place serves Maltese specialties (Rabbit, Horse Meat, etc), which I found great, but might not be the perfect choice for younger children

Great evening but bad transfer! - Excellent night, great experience, fabulous host and staff, however the transfer left alot to be desired...the guy had a bad attitude and he drove like a maniac through narrow streets both there and back. We were scared he was going to crash! It's a shame as we had a wonderful evening apart from that.
