Luis – Sweden

Very good restaurant with great atmosphere. The food was really good, decent portions and good quality ingredients. Had a good time

Valentina – Netherlands

The whole event is very well thought! From the great instructions of the pickup, to the restaurant vibe, show and the welcoming host. Me and my husband had great fun exploring Malta's cuisine and a little tradition via the folklore dances. We tried from almost everything on the 4 course menu (we were two so each picked different). The ravioli are spectacular, so is the rabbit. Squid was interesting but wasn't quite my cup of tea. Fish soup had plenty of fish and mussels. The experience is for food enthusiasts so picky eaters better choose a-la-carte option from the restaurant's site when booking. The overall vibe was very cheerful and uplifting which was a super predisposition for the dances after the show. I wish we could have stayed longer on the dance floor but the arranged travel was departing at 22:30. I guess Cinderella felt the same 🥰 definitely a great choice while visiting Malta! The host speaks english, french and italian and these were the biggest groups of visitors.
