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.

Under Grain

Modern Cuisine, Creative · ★ Michelin

€€€

Housed within the stylish Rosselli Hotel, on one of Valletta’s most elegant streets, Under Grain welcomes guests into a setting as sophisticated as its cuisine. The restaurant occupies the building’s historic lower level, where diners pass by the kitchen before entering a dining room crowned by a vaulted stone ceiling. Inspired by the tailor shops that once lined Merchant Street, the concept is woven throughout, from sewing-pattern menus to displays of garments, and even the pincushion used to present the bill. The offering is fully à la carte, with the option for guests to create their own ta

Noni

€€€€

In 2017, chef Jonathan Brincat transformed a centuries-old house into a restaurant, naming it after his own nickname: Noni. A small staircase takes you down to the main dining room, set beneath a stone barrel-vaulted ceiling. Guests can choose between a full tasting menu or a shorter version. Either way, the experience offers a vivid, personal journey through the flavours of Malta: seasonal, mostly local ingredients, flanked by a menu map that pinpoints the locations of their suppliers, and traditional dishes reworked with a creative, contemporary slant. A standout example is their modern take

In the warmer months, guests can also enjoy a panoramic terrace overlooking the city. In the open kitchen, chefs Andrew Borg and David Tanti craft a concise yet compelling selection of dishes, blending creativity with an international flair.

Fernandõ Gastrotheque

Mediterranean Cuisine, Contemporary · ★ Michelin

€€€

Tucked away in one of Sliema’s quiet side streets, this small restaurant has become something of a beacon for fine dining in Malta. The kitchen is led by talented young chef Hiram Cassar, a former sous chef with valuable international experience under his belt. The menu is concise and well-structured, featuring creative dishes that aim for balance and elegance and composed around a small number of cherry-picked ingredients. Stand-out dishes include a house-made agnolotti pecorino with delica pumpkin, pine nuts and mostarda di Cremona, as well as seabass escalope with leeks, preserved lemon, ca

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,

The establishment, part of the Rosselli – AX Privilege hotel, is open in the mornings for breakfast.

Overlooking Balluta Bay, Rosamì occupies a beautiful Maltese-style villa, whose first floor, pleasantly sheltered from the street below, houses a classic, stylish restaurant, with a distinctly romantic edge. The cuisine, now helmed by a youthful yet highly experienced Italian chef, showcases dishes with an international twang presented in two surprise tasting menus: one six course and the other eight, both flanked by a selection of appetisers and local cheeses from small producers - a delightful way to experience Malta’s artisanal excellence.
