ION Harbour by Simon Rogan
Contemporary, Mediterranean Cuisine · ★★ Michelin
€€€€
Located on the seafront, on the fourth floor of the exclusive Iniala Harbour House, ION Harbour offers warm, precise service led by a youthful team, breathtaking views and truly exceptional cuisine. Chef Simon Rogan, holder of three Michelin stars at his Lake District restaurant L’Enclume in the UK, is behind the concept, while resident chef Christian Cali executes a complex and creative menu. The cuisine follows Rogan’s celebrated farm-to-table philosophy, using produce grown, reared or caught in the Maltese Islands whenever possible. The restaurant offers one tasting menu available at both l

Rubino
Traditional Cuisine · Bib
€€
Located in the heart of the historic centre, just steps from the iconic St. John’s Cathedral, this establishment is a genuine landmark of Valletta’s dining scene. Founded in the early 1900s as a Sicilian restaurant and pastry shop, it has preserved its period interior, along with a devotion to honest, generous cooking. Some dishes are long-standing favourites, like the highly recommended Fenek Moqli, rabbit braised in a red wine sauce with a delightful sweet-and-sour finish, while others change with the seasons and the availability of local ingredients. The menu is chalked up on a blackboard,

Terrone
mediterranean
€€
Tucked away at the tip of the small town of Vittoriosa and abutting the walls of Fort St. Angelo, Maltese-Australian chef-owner Adrian Hili has been at the helm here for over ten years. His cooking celebrates Mediterranean, Italian and Maltese traditions: the sole, for instance, is perfectly baked in a wood-fired oven and served with Castelluccio lentils from Italy, jazzed up with samphire, and paired with a small pan of homemade fries. Due to ongoing restoration work, the entrance is currently to the rear of the building (not particularly attractive), but once inside the elegant decor and alf

The Harbour Club
Modern Cuisine, Mediterranean Cuisine
€€€
Housed in an 18C building near Gozo ferry terminal, this restaurant ranks among the island’s most atmospheric for many reasons. The indoor dining room occupies a historic former icehouse, while the alfresco terrace offers a breathtaking view of the Grand Harbour. The kitchen rises to the setting with a distinct Mediterranean spirit, expressed through modern and imaginative dishes. Each course is tied to a street in the city centre, and a small tile bearing its name, along with a brief historical anecdote, is brought to the table as the dish is served.

Bistro Boca
French, French Contemporary
€€
With moorings just a few metres away, this bistro is of course popular with yachties, as well as to anyone seeking an authentic French dining experience with sea views. A Parisian-style décor sets the lively stage for a crisp, deftly crafted menu including moules frites, steak tartare, cassoulet de canard and the classic sole meunière in a festival of traditional flavours courtesy of premium ingredients. We recommend starting with a knockout cocktail - the bartender excels at timeless classics. Inspector’s tip: make the most of the small beach just below after lunch or before dinner.

Guzé
Traditional Cuisine
€€
Located in the heart of Valletta’s historic centre, this restaurant, unlike many of its counterparts, doesn’t offer outdoor seating, but features two warm, inviting dining rooms with old stone walls and a kitchen visible from the street. The focus is on Maltese surf and turf dishes that showcase fresh, seasonal, locally sourced ingredients. Guests can choose between two tasting menus, Land or Sea, or order from the à la carte lineup. The wine list includes Maltese, Italian and French labels, with some available by the glass. Be sure to book in advance.

The Seafood Market Grill
Seafood, Classic Cuisine
€€
A simple establishment tucked away from the tourist bustle, where everything revolves around fish, as one might expect given its name. Right at the entrance of the restaurant, on the left, the day’s catch is displayed. You can choose from a range of raw seafood dishes, ceviches and a selection of oysters, caviar, shellfish and clams, along with Mediterranean fish that can be pan-cooked, grilled, or fried.
