Had excellent dinner for 2 at Mushi and really enjoyed the food and service. Excellent ambience and very good views of the sea. Definitely recommend Mushi for pan-Asian food. Thank you for a great evening.
Opened in March 2025, under new management - we thoroughly enjoyed our visit. The food and service were excellent and there was a really comfortable, welcoming atmosphere. The views are lovely and make for a very pleasant location. We found it good value for money. The young couple now running this establishment have created a really lovely venue and obviously care a great deal about their offering. (Mushi is a merge of both of their names btw). This one of those places that deserves to do well! Would definitely recommend.
I had an amazing experience at Mushi. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. The staff was very polite.
Had the pleasure of eating at the Rex. We fancied Italian and it was a choice of 3. The Rex was closest so we headed there and came recommended. We met with Abdul and what a delightful polite and friendly host. He looked after our night attentively suggested some wines and waited on our table excellently. The food was superb. For meat eaters we had dishes with no meat in and they were just perfect. There was not one piece left on our plates which tells you not only the quality of the produce but portion sizes were exact. We ordered the Gnocci, penne Aribiate, garlic prawns, fish cakes, chocolate cake and creme brulee. Just a lovely night and the view outside was just perfect.
Went on a Saturday night. Was very quiet. This place deserves to be busier! Excellent food and service, with a view onto the coast and sea. Seafood coconut curry was excellent
The Food was absolutely delicious . Great experience with sea view.
Fantastic little place,I had the fillet steak medium rare and it was cooked to perfection,my wife had a pasta dish that was amazing and the dessert was absolutely spot on we had first hand service from Abdul so thank you very much for all you’re effort
Come here for the steak, desserts, wine and personal service from the owner. One of the better places to dine in Ventnor. Be sure to phone ahead as they only open a few tables at a time.
