Visited this place with my daughter. We probably made a mistake to order Lebanese food as just going by the name of the place we should have tried out the Indian dishes… The hummus was okish and the mutabel slightly better. The lamb shoarma (huge...portion) was very soggy and served without pita bread nor garlic sauce - it reminded me of a bad goulash … We will be back to try out their Indian cuisine and will defer final judgement till after our next visit.More

We booked the buffet for Saturday night and we were not disappointed. The instructions on the confirmation email made it really easy to find the place and get parked- for free! The staff were polite and welcoming and sat us outside with a beautiful view...of the harbour. The buffet had quite a few vegetarian options and you could go up as many times as you liked- which is a great deal for 15 euros. There was pakora, bhajis, soup and chicken wings for starter. The mains options were; chicken tandoori, vegetable curry, lamb rogan josh, chicken tikka masala, beef madras, chicken korma, pilau rice and basmati rice. Only odd thing is that you have to ask for garlic or plain naan and it will be brought to your table. Definitely ask for it, it was so thick and fluffy, it was delicious. Dessert was baklava, fruit salad and I didn't catch the name of the third but it was an apple and coconut cake and it was great. I would really recommend this restaurant.More

Me and my husband came here for dinner, we were walking round the marina trying to find somewhere to eat and this place caught our eye. We were greeted politely by staff and taken to a table. We were served drinks and got given the...menus. My husband had a chicken tikka masala and I had the prawn curry, we both had pilau rice and shared a naan bread and portion of chips. Whilst we waited for our mains we were bought out some complimentary onion bajis as a starter which we thought was a lovely touch. The food came out in perfect timing and honestly was one of the best Indians I have ever had ! Everything was perfect and tasted so authentic and delicious. The portion sizes were perfect aswell however I would suggest to get a naan bread to share as they are huge ! We will definitely be coming back to this place, the staff were lovely and kind, the service was amazing and the food was just perfection. We went for my birthday and it was just the cherry on top enjoying a lovely meal at the marina.More

The Sharma restaurant has a wonderful menu - a mix of Indian, Arabic and Mediterranean. We chose a mixture of Indian and Arabic, and it was all really delicious. The staff were so friendly and gave good advice on our order (and discouraged us from...over-ordering…always a problem with us!) And of course the view is fabulous, overlooking the marina. Great fun watching the boats mooring up. I highly recommend this restaurant. We’ll certainly be returning on our next visit to Malta.More

Booked a table at 9.30, on a Wed night, the first thing we saw was one the waiter lying on the sofa on his mobile :). We were like ok.. lets see this is.. The waiter asked rather surprised if we had a booking, although...I booked on the official restaurant website. I asked him if the restaurant is still open as there was no customer inside. He asked a guy behind him "if" they are still open, and me and my friend was shocked. In my mind I wanted to leave already. The restaurant was empty and I wanted to chose a nice table, but the waiter said "no" and escorted us to a table himself. There was no customer, no music, dead silent, with a waiter who was rude and don't know what his doing. I told my friend lets get out of here quick, and that was the best decision we made as Im sure the follow up service and Food would be terrible. What a disaster of a restaurant, if you can call it a restaurant, a waste of space in my opinion as the restaurant is located in a nice location. We went next door to Acqua Marine and had a wonderful dinner and service, It was like from being to Hell and then going to Heaven :P What a total DISASTOR.More

We found Sharma when we walked past as other reviews may not put it at the top of trip advisor but we found the food amazing. The Tikka Masala was the most flavoursome Indian dish we have ever tried ( even though it was also...the hottest even at a medium). Service was great, had some lovely free appetisers and lots of choice on the menu.More

Hospitality was not great, worst food, out of 10 of us, all of us went out hungry. The buffet had only one vegetarian curry versus 4 for non vegetarians. I would definitely not suggest or recommend this restaurant if any one is looking for authentic...Indian food.More
