Fabulous! I had the coffee, caramel and chocolate. I'd happily be a regular if only I had an Amorino near me. Absolutely delicious, smooth and delightfully presented.

Lovely unpretentious atmosphere in this excellent gin cocktail bar. The staff really know all the 220 gins and have great suggestions. They are knowledgeable, welcoming and friendly. Alexa, from Canada, is a mixologist extraordinaire. Seek her out for a great cocktail.
Tapas is delicious here as well

If you visit Valetta it would be a shame if you wouldn't visit Sotto. One of the best pizza in the world. Best ingredients. Beautiful interior. Kind and easygoing staff.
We tried one with pork cheek and parmigiano and one with Parma ham. Both outstanding. Delicious. Perfect.
And then tiramisu, light as the air. Perfect end of fantastic late lunch.
Highly recommended experience.
7. Vecchia Napoli

We are returning customers at Vecchia Napoli & I suggested the place for a casual family lunch, we were a table of 8 for a midweek lunch. Although it was midweek restaurant was full up and you could see that they were very busy and short of staff. We were served the starters and when the last one of us was still eating and enjoying his starter, the maincourse arrived. The waiters took his plate and gave him his maincourse leaving abruptly not letting us to voice out that he was still enjoying his starter. Which was quite disappointing.
I cannot complain about the food or the service in general, as food was delicious and service over all was ok. But to remove a starter that a person was still eating and give him his maincourse is a bit non heard of.
I would still recommend this restaurant for their delicious food, but expect that sometimes 1 in 5 service will be poor.

Reviewed By BritishBetty
We ate here last night and we had the fillet of beef and the ribs followed by the cheesecake and they were all excellent. The portions are big and the meat is very tender. The young Macedonian waitress is very attentive, friendly, smiley and went out of her way to ensure we were happy and well looked after. They also had live music with a lady singing and playing guitar which was very enjoyable. We have eaten in other restaurants in Valletta, but for us this was by far the best and we highly recommend it.

Why Bert's Kitchen? Because this is exactly what we do. We cook and we sell beer - good food and top beers as the accompanying drink. The first two hours of parking are on us, complimentary

BEATI PAOLI Restaurant, located at 240, St Paul's Str, Valletta. If it is a lunch or a dinner, BEATI PAOLI is the ultimate restaurant to eat in.
Reviewed By Michael R - Chilbolton, United Kingdom
We had read reviews, and were looking forward to a great meal. Limited menu, but no problem if cooked well. Indifferent (unsmiling) service. Main courses all served on cold plates. Rare veal chops on cold plates? Cold vegetables. Chef asked if we had enjoyed the meal. We said the food was cold. His explanation was that the electric plate warmer was not working! (We didn't ask if he'd thought of hot water in a sink.) Sweet limited to three choices (not even an ice cream option). Big big disappointment, and not cheap. We appreciate this may have been a bad night, but suggest there are better places to eat in Valetta.
