I had such a wonderful experience dining here — the hospitality was truly exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel incredibly welcome and well taken care of. We ordered pasta and steak for 2 which took a little longer to prepare, we honestly didn’t even notice the wait. What impressed us most was that the staff came to apologise on their own and kindly offered us a complimentary platter of bruschetta, which was such a thoughtful gesture.
The food itself was absolutely outstanding — easily some of the best I’ve ever had. Every dish was perfectly prepared, full of flavour, and clearly made with great care. To finish, we had their homemade tiramisu, and it was simply incredible — without a doubt the best I’ve ever tasted.
Amazing service, amazing food, and an overall fantastic dining experience. Highly recommend — I’ll definitely be coming back!

This restaurant should absolutely be on the list of the top 5 restaurants in Malta. If you decide to come here, you definitely won’t be disappointed.
They are very well known for their ribs, which are served in very generous portions. Since I had already tried the ribs on my previous visit to Malta, this time I decided to go for different dishes — and they did not disappoint at all.
We ordered the ricotta-filled gnocchi in gorgonzola sauce, and they were incredibly tasty. The gnocchi were extremely soft and pillowy, easily some of the best I’ve ever had — they literally melted in my mouth. The gorgonzola sauce was a bit rich for my taste, but the gnocchi themselves were outstanding and worth ordering on their own.
Along with that, we ordered the steak, served pink with mushroom purée. The steak was perfectly cooked and so tender it melted in your mouth. Honestly, one of the better steaks I’ve had, and I would highly recommend trying their steak options.
To finish the meal, we had the homemade tiramisu, which was also excellent.
Every dish we tried was top quality — easily a 5-star experience across the board.

“Yes that’s me on the menu” the waiter said before we could even ask we loved this laid back family restaurant! It’s the place for big celebrations, intimate dinners, family dining and reservations are a MUST. The space goes on forever into different nook and crannies of the building. The walk to the ladies loo is an adventure in itself, but there are ramps and plenty of space.
You must order the beef ribs. That’s their signature specially and the way it falls from the bones and melts in your mouth…
Staff are attentive and run like clockwork. They are serious and playful. It is a destination restaurant! It turns heads from the street and people walk out smiling and laughing. A wonderful place!

The food here is just amazing, first of all the staff are super lovely and attentive. Helped us choose what to get from the menu. We went for the steak platter and the pork ribs, vegetables on the side and fries. Between 3 of us there was SO MUCH food the portions were amazing! I’m used to small portions eating out in London but coming from a Caribbean background we like to EAT so this was great. We managed to eat 90% of the food
The ribs were absolutely divine, soft, fell off the bone. the sauce was delicious they were also huge! The vegetables on the side were some of the nicest vegetables I’ve had. The steak was just amazing, the best steak I’ve ever had and I am a foodie! Lastly the tiramisu was to die for, it was divine. Everything tasted sooo good, the restaurant itself is really pretty inside and and cute. The food tasted like grandma cooked it and it was made with love. We couldn’t stay long as had a flight to catch but will definitely return. I have recommended this restaurant to everyone back home in London as it’s just so good. Amazing restaurant! I wish I could give 10 stars!

This is our first experience to dine here. And I would love to express my appreciation with the organization and your team. A huge well done, the staff is well mannered, professional and friendly. Shout out to Jinny who was first impressions last, she welcomed us with a generous smiles. Asking our booking details and she brings us to our table, until we ordered the “ribs deal” and for our son order. While the other staff is very attentive to the details, for me they give us the top notch service. Recommendable!
The atmosphere and ambience are amazing looks unique and chic.
Here’s the catch! Shocking moment the portion of the rib is unbelievable! Hard to start to finish. It was massive and delicious fine, well cooked ribs so tender and we enjoyed every bite. Our son is so much joy to see the ribs. Well done to the chef.
Over all as first time dinners definitely! we will come back for sure and we will recommend to our family and friends. Happy guest! Happy tummy! 5 ⭐️

Stopped by this place on my travels in Malta as the locals mentioned this was a great spot for authentic Italian pasta and foods. The Pasta and chicken did not disappoint and it was a great meal! Service was great too and wasn’t too busy when we arrived for dinner too. Great spot if you’re in St. Paul’s

The experience was unpleasant; the only good thing here is the atmosphere and appetizers. But even though we found a hair inside the meatballs, the waiter took it instantly and gave us 1 extra meatball. But after that we couldn’t even look at it.
Burger taste was plain, bun was dry, lettuce was old, soggy and bitter, beef was dry and overcooked. Even though food aesthetically looked really promising.
Can’t recommend this place at all.

Very pleasant atmosphere, one of the best restaurants we have ever been to, the beef ribs have a fantastic sauce and the tiramisu is definitely the best in our life, we have never had such good tiramisu in Italy. Magnificent wine selection and wonderful staff. A restaurant for every recommendation, we would especially mention the waiter who is originally from Macedonia and how wonderful he is with people.

Tried their slow cooked pork ribs and they were amazing. Very rarely am I not able to finish a meal but the portion was huge! The staff were very attentive and pleasant. Tiramisu and homemade cassatella for dessert ended the evening well. Will visit again.

Mid experience. For the price nothing special. My colleagues they ordered the pork belly, 2 of them we were 4 and they forgot to bring the roasted potatoes that were supposed to come with. My pasta was okay. Regarding the mistake that they know they did, they didn’t offered anything to try to compensate the situation.
