    IL GARRA TRATTORIA
    by Balam
    Il Garra Trattoria is the bar and restaurant of the white Dolphin apartments, it is Open to non guests as well as guests the Restaurant serves fantastic Italian/Maltese style food and the excellent menu leaves you spoilt for choice with some great sounding pasta dishes, salads and steaks. You can sit outside in the courtyard area or inside in the equally lovely and tastefully decorated restaurant bar area.
    After some hard deliberation we opted for a brochette starter followed by Pasta dishes, I had pasta with mixed seafood and feta cheese, Evan had Pasta with tomato chilli flakes and bacon. They were delicious.
    Normally we would not have bothered with a desert but when offered a Maltese trifle, well you just have to try it don’t you? It was a delicious multi coloured trifle that went down a treat and left us wanting more. Resisting the temptation.
    They have a Maltese night on Thursdays, Karaoke on Fridays and a BBQ on Monday Nights. All the food is fantastic.

    The food at the all you can eat BBQ on Mondays was really fantastic. €17.50 each

  • The Tavern is owned and run by Robbie and Jane bell. The atmosphere was very relaxing and the restaurant was very spacious with a lovely breeze from the newly fitted air conditioning. The menu had a vast choice from Traditional Maltese food like beef olives, rabbit stew, fried rabbit, local fish and pasta to favorites like lamb shank, steaks, mixed grill and Sunday roast. There was a children's menu too and a fantastic home made sweet menu.

    I visited the restaurant three times in the week that i stayed and will be back again next year.

    Lamb shank slowly cooked in red wine.

    Chez Gaetane: Good Food & Simple Food

    Veggie Risotto
    by steventilly
    We ate at Chez Gaetane twice while we were at Bugibba - partly because they did good food that we enjoyed and partly because they did simple food that our parents liked.

    I had a veggie risotto the first time and spring rolls the second time. Both meals were really nice, and very filling. The staff were extremely friendly and attentive (but not to the point of being intrusive) - probably the best we encountered (and we found almost all staff on the Island to be excellent).

    Bugibba boasts many restaurants full of tourists especially during the summer months. Many of them are located around the main square and serve all ranges of cuisine from Italian to McDonalds, but also Maltese.

    The prices are convenient and even lower than we expected for the beer and wine.

    Mr. Kebab is a small joint at a busy corner of Tourist Street one block from the Bus Terminal. It's opposite a busy day tour booking office and it's a coming and going of public transport vans.

    All dish comes with rice and beans, a lot of nuticion at low price. Value for money!

    Time Out proved to be the best lunch stop we made. Amazingly it was within a minute walk from our hotel, but the Tourist street is not the first street people explore.

    Great service, excellent food and air conditioned!

    Lunch.

    This lovely restaurant was empty when we went in and we thought maybe we had made a mistake as the greasy looking cafe place over the road was full. We soon found that we had stumbled upon one of Malta’s gems, a total food experience that certainly left a lasting impression on my mind.

    The restaurant is tastefully decorated in a modern style that’s light but relaxing making a most pleasant atmosphere.
    service was quick and friendly and the menu offers a good range of Maltese food all mouth wateringly good looking and makes the choice of what to eat very difficult.

    They brought us some Pea and Mint soup (on the house) as a pre starter and on tasting it i knew we were in for some great food.
    I had a Maltese salad to that was delicious and consisted or Olives, capers, pickled onions, sundried tomatoes amongst other items. Evan had Bruschetta (and it was a plate full)
    For main course i had Rabbit done in a Traditional style, the main course comes with lovely Roasted potatoes and Veg, Evan had Rabbit as well but his was cooked in wine and garlic.
    We had drinks which were not expensive even by local standards.

    All in all this was a fantastic experience and the food was certainly the best I have had on Malta and in quite a while. It was not expensive as both our meals and our drinks came to €36.90 and could have been cheaper if we had gone for something other than the Rabbit.

    If you visit Bugibba then eating here is a must

    Turkish Delight is a good place to get something to eat to have outside on a bench somewhere or to take back to your Apartment. They sell Burgers and Kebabs that come with salad and / or chips, rice etc.
    Not the best food and you can get cheaper and better meals but as it is open late it is handy to go when you come out of the pub/club and are feeling hungry.
