Best Dinner Places to Eat in Malta

"A post shared by Natalie Palmer (@palmskii) on May 10, 2017 at 12:32pm PDT. This well-established wine bar is nestled in a 400-year-old vaulted cellar below street level, and has been open for over 15 years. Its extensive selection of wines and platters made with the finest charcuterie make it the perfect hangout on cosy winter nights as well as warm summer evenings."

"Trabuxu ('corkscrew') is housed in a cool 350-year-old cellar – an atmospheric place to munch on perfect platters and quaff wine."

"This concept restaurant is famous for the fact that it doesn’t offer an a la carte menu. Strada Santa Lucia’s Legligin takes pride in its scrumptious €26 per person tasting menu, which features a selection of seven small courses of Maltese and Mediterranean dishes. The food is unpretentious and authentically Mediterranean – two elements that make this restaurant such a popular spot."

"Legligin is a Maltese onomatopoeic word for glugging down a drink. In the case of Legligin, the drinks of choice are an array of delicious wines set and kept at a good temperature in holes in the walls of this cellar-turned-wine bar. When you order a bottle, the owner quaintly plucks it out of the wall and serves it straight to your glass."

"With more of a tapas-style dinner with a Maltese touch, Legligin is located in an old wine cellar. It is actually a wine bar and restaurants in Valletta, and the dishes are mainly made to accompany your drinks, but the food is excellent!. The tasting menu is incredible, with several small dishes that are regularly changed."

"A subtle pun on the bus route (81) that used to link Valletta and Rabat, Root 81 is one of the more modern bistros enlivening the dining scene around traditionally conservative Mdina and Rabat. It's worth booking..."

"The food is of a high standard… The standout here is the flank steak with the creamy peppercorn sauce… The atmosphere is romantic and very comfortable and the service was great… we really liked it here and the food was so good… We tried the mushroom risotto and duck noodles as starters and it was delicious… Could eat here everyday… TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence Winner https://restaurantguidemalta.com/panorama/il-mithna-restaurant/"

"The Grand lies outside the city walls, tucked beneath the northwestern bastions. It's a curvaceous concrete block; sea-front rooms have balconies with fabulous views over Marsamxett Harbour; the less expensive..."

"The collection at the National Museum of Fine Arts dates back to the Order of St. John (16th Century) – and includes the largest collection of paintings by the Baroque artist Mattia Preti (1613–1699) and a collection of rare, antique maps. The building itself is also historical and was originally one of the oldest in Valletta until a knight re-built it as his private home in the 1760s."

"If you are an art lover, this is undoubtedly the ideal attraction for you in Valletta. An amazing variety of Maltese art and crafts from several different of the time periods of history can be seen put up on display in this lovely and welcoming museum. Located in a historical palatial building, the exteriors of the building are as full of art as the interiors and hence worth a note."

"One for art lovers and yet another former residence of the Knights of Malta. The National Museum of Fine Arts is grand building where you will find Valletta’s finest art pieces from 11th Century to 20th Century. Most notable works of art is the Baptist of Christ painted by Mattias Pretti the prolific painter also responsible for some of the famous paintings in St John Co-Cathedral."

"Palazzo Preca is a pretty high-end place, tucked away in one of the narrow streets of the capital, they serve some great food, known mostly for their seafood dishes.

"Palazzo Preca Restaurant is just a couple of steps away from our main entrance within a 16th century Palazzo in Strait Street. Listed as one of the top 12 restaurants in Malta by the WRMS Restaurant Guide, Palazzo Preca offers a fusion of Maltese and Mediterranean cuisine. 54, Strait Street, Valletta"

"Palazzo Preca reminds us of that famous Annie Lennox lyric: sisters are doing it for themselves. Ramona and Roberta had worked in their family restaurant until their mid 20’s before deciding they had their own path to follow. But the success of Palazzo Preca isn’t just a nice story."
