Salini is a slightly trendy restaurant specialized in delicious Mediterranean food – there are local dishes as well as Italian, Spanish, Turkish, Lebanese, Moroccan and Egyptian dishes… There’s also a good selection of tapas and delicious wines – which unfortunately you can’t buy by the glass but only by the bottle.

The restaurant is open for dinner 7 nights a week & lunch on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays.

Favorite Dish: I had Tadam Mimli as a starter, which is a cold dish of fresh tomatoes, bread crumbs, capers, anchovies, mint, parsley and marjoram. As my main course I tried Saw dat dajaj, a dish of chicken liver, garlic, lemon juice, parsley, coriander, pomegranate syrup, mixed spice and cumin. My husband had some simple grilled tuna. All dishes were truly delicious.

Hibiki is a delicious Japanese restaurant inside the Fortina Spa Resort… when you go there you can choose to eat at traditional tables or at the teppanyaki table – where a chef cooks in front of you and puts up an interesting culinary show.

The restaurant is open daily for lunch and dinner, except on Tuesdays when it’s closed.
Reservations are not necessary for lunch but they are necessary for dinner. If you are a guest of the hotel, you have a 25% discount.

Favorite Dish: We had sushi and sashimi… you can select the different types of rolls or fish that you want, or else go for the set menus for around 30 euros.

A nice place to stop for food, drinks or in our case dessert. It's cosy and it's part of an international chain with restaurants mostly in the Middle East - but also in Italy..

Favorite Dish: The creamy dessert… served in a small cognac glass, and similar to a tiny tiramisu. There are several types but the base is generally the same: mascarpone cream, a sponge biscuit, a shot of coffee... what varies are the toppings, for example dulce de leche, cocoa powder, fresh strawberries, meringue, etc. my favourite? Argentina and/or Roma!

If you are walking on the promenade towards St. Julian's bay area, then this is a lovely spot to sit and sip a cool drink, coffee, snack etc., and "watch the world and his wife go by."

It is very popular, and is open early evenings as well.

Favorite Dish: The hot chocolate is lovely.

The restaurant is small, but cosy. It is set back a little from Tower Road, down a side street. The owners were welcoming and the food was of a good standard. Their menu was quite extensive for such a small place, with lots of fish choices as well as meat dishes and Maltese specialities. I'm sure anyone could find something to take their fancy from the menu here.

Favorite Dish: As I had been living on Italian and Maltese style food, I opted for something with a more familiar taste: Lamb chops and mint sauce! It was served with an accompaniment of chips and peas. The garlic bread starter came with a tomato topping which was very tasty.

If you are looking for pizza, Mozzarellas is a good place to go. Sit by the window for sea views and a bit of fresh air.

Favorite Dish: The food is very well priced and as the name of the restaurant suggests, they do pile on the mozzarella!
I tried the American style pizza with pepperoni and it was huge. You definitely needed a hearty appetite to make any kind of dent in it!

Overlooking Sliema's promenade on Tower Road, this small restaurant has great views out to sea. The main selling point is the food. Maltese specialities are aplenty on the menu and the staff are friendly and eager to please. It's worth being adventurous and trying something new here such as rabbit in wine or the locally caught lampuki fish.

Favorite Dish: I tried the Maltese bragioli- a minced steak haggis-shaped local dish. Strangely it is known in English as beef olives, although the dish contains no olives whatsoever! It was very filling and I could not finish the plate but definitely worth a try. It was served with peppers and potatoes and the mixture of tastes worked well.

Strategically situated in Sliema, MISTO is not only a wonderful place to eat but a great location to meet.

With outsite waterfront seating and a stunning interior, Misto is a fantastic venue to enjoy a coffee , abusiness lunch, a relaxed meal or just a bite with friends.

It has a well compliled-fusion Mediterranean menu and an accomplished wine selection catering for all tastes and appetites.

Favorite Dish: I enjoyed very much the seafood dish and also the meat.
