Right in the heart of Valletta – great location, great food… and prices that definitely know they’re in the city centre. 😄

The location is excellent and the place itself is really comfortable – the kind of chairs that make you order another drink simply because standing up suddenly seems like unnecessary effort. 😂

Unfortunately, there was no live music when we visited, which would have added a lot to the atmosphere. But the food more than made up for it. The lamb was delicious, the ravioli was also very good, and the sangria disappeared suspiciously quickly. 🍷
It’s definitely on the expensive side, but at least here the bill hurts more than the food disappoints – which is always the better way round. 😄

Great location, very good food, tasty sangria and dangerously comfortable chairs. Just bring a slightly less comfortable wallet.

The host Alex was very kind , he explained the options and gave us some good options to choose from the menu , the waiter was prompt, funny and very accommodating, the food cam out fast and very good, the beef was made exactly as we asked medium-rare, the rissot di mare was very fragrant and delicious, seafood was fresh, the gin tonic was very well made , they had an extra type of gin that was not in the menu, the waiter recommend it. All in all a very good experience altogether relaxing and fun . We had the Linguine di mare, Rissoto di mare.

We went for a secoond time later in the day, the atmosphere was excellent, service was on point and vrey good even the seccont time and the food again did not disappoint,

Everything was perfect here! the atmosphere, the food, and the service. Definitely worth a visit!

The moment we walked in, Alex immediately seated us in a comfortable spot. He recommended some great food and drinks! (Highly recommended: the tomahawk steak)

We want to thank you all for the food and the great time! Special thanks to Ismael and to Alex for the service.

Best regards: the Dutch guys

We ordered the risotto with truffles and beef and the linguine with pistacchio, guanciale and buffala. To say it was perfect its an understatement. It was so good, we cleaned the plates. The pasta was cooked perfectly al dente, the sweetness of the buffala with the guanciale is just perfect, the risotto was also cooked perfectly and all the tastes were so perfectly combined. If i could give this place 10 stars i would. The staff was very welcoming, and we got our food and drinks fast. Overall an AMAZING experience✨

A very cozy restaurant right by the beautiful cathedral. The drinks were good och the pizzas were wonderful! We ordered the Hot Honey pizza which had a nice cheese-filled crust and the Cattedrale. The service was smooth and professional. Would recomend to anyone visiting Valletta.
