De Mondion
french, regional · ★ Michelin
€€€€
De Mondion delivers a stylish dining experience that fully matches the magnificent, fortified city of Mdina in which it is set. The gourmet restaurant occupies the top floor of the charming Xara Palace hotel, a 16C edifice. The indoor dining room is intimate and elegantly appointed, with lush carpets that lend it a soft, refined vibe, while the outdoor terrace commands a breathtaking view stretching over the island’s eastern side all the way to the coast. Chef Clint Grech and his team add a modern, light twist to Mediterranean fare, accented by a few French influences. An example: the tarte tr

Grotto Tavern
tea, sandwich, coffee_shop
€€€
This cosy, stylish tavern, in the heart of the charming town of Rabat and just a short walk from the St. Paul’s Catacombs, is both romantic and mysterious. A few steps lead down from the street to the main dining areas: the colourful Garden Dining Room, a riot of lush ornamental plants, and The Cave, carved out of the rock, which offers its own tasting menu, the ‘Grotto Experience’, alongside the à la carte and tasting menus available in the main dining room. The repertory is rooted in local produce and traditions, which are reinterpreted in a modern, creative vein.

In the historic centre of Rabat, you can dine in the covered inner courtyard or in the rooms on the upper floor of a period building, thus experiencing all the charm of this extraordinary district of Malta, just a stone’s throw from Mdina.

The Medina
Mediterranean Cuisine, Traditional Cuisine
€€
After you pass the fortified walls, it is a pleasure to lose yourself in the narrow streets of Mdina, the perfectly preserved ancient Arab capital of Malta. The food pays homage to the island as a crossroads of culinary cultures with the most typical dishes of Malta and other countries bordering the Mediterranean Sea, all within the setting of a charming historic building. If you are dining in company, we recommend the “casual bites” appetisers, which are perfect for sharing.

Scala
Mediterranean Cuisine
€€
Set in an enviable position at the entrance to Mdina, this restaurant stands out by its terrace with sweeping sea views and the rich, expressive Mediterranean cuisine of chef Sheldon, that has earned it a reputation as one of the island’s finest establishments. The staff is always at hand to help you choose between locally sourced fish and expertly prepared meats. Signature dishes include yakitori-style octopus and Rossini-style beef fillet. While in the area, make sure you visit the nearby historic attractions; we also recommend getting a taxi to Mdina, unless you are staying nearby, as parki

€€
A simple yet modern bistro–trattoria, depicted by a warm, friendly vibe and run by a local chef who draws on his experience to craft Mediterranean-inspired fare that is firmly rooted in local traditions and producers. The focus is mainly, though not exclusively, on turf ingredients, resulting in generous, flavoursome dishes that are as appealing to the eye as they are to the palate. The bouncy, spot-on staff is happy to offer suggestions and recommendations, from the daily blackboard specials to insightful wine pairing options.
