We dined here week of 10th June and what a lovely evening. Thes restaurant is very subtly decorated in neutral tones, and the tables are laid out with pristine tableware and cutlery. We went on a Wednesday night, when the restaurant is lit by candlelight. Very cosy and intimate. The staff were very attentive without being "over the top" and... More

Came across this restaurant by chance but what a delight. Lovely atmosphere, professional and discreet staff and wonderful food and wine. Particularly loved the creme brulee which was finished off with blow torch at the table!! Sadly, it was our last night but would have gone back there!

We had lunch on May 25th, we were six and we ordered based on the menu, fish was fresh, presentation was nice and service was on line with the place, we did not have any wine. However, when we got the check was 324.00 euros, a little more than 150.00 euro more than what we expected. I asked for an... More

Tucked down the narrow Strait Street just off Pjazza San Gorg this could be easily missed, but if you do you will miss out on a wonderful meal in quaint surroundings, fresh fish every day, extensive menu with excellent choice. A comprehensive wine list all at reasonable prices, friendly service, what more do you need?

We've decided to push our luck & popped in without reserving a table, greeted with a smile & we were given a table in a damask room. The service was slow but can't complain with such a short notice. Food was prepared & served professionally, I had fresh fish & Anna local octopus in garlic, it was delicious & perfectly... More

We have been going to Malta for years and visit many restaurants, the food here is clearly the best yet. Amazing! The staff were very friendly and professional.

This is by far one of the best restaurants in Malta. Went on a candlelight night (Wednesdays). Atmosphere and surroundings were spectacular. Service was excellent and food simply AMAZING. Food very reasonably priced. Our party of 5 had mainly fresh fish dishes and were not disappointed. Ramona and her fiance are doing an excellent job - will certainly be paying... More

Absolutely fantastic restaurant. Thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience. Food was wonderful (check out the fresh fish), surroundings beautiful and atmosphere charming. Staff very attentive and helpful. Wednesday night is candlelight dinner night and the whole restaurant looked beautiful. Cannot recommend it enough and will definitely be booking in again next time I am in Malta.

my wife and I visited your restaurant and we were greatly impressed. The food was absolutely exquisite, the service impeccable and the décor breathtaking. A great experience without breaking the bank Duncan, the person that served us was top notch and a credit to his profession. We look forward to visiting you again
