Filippo, Italian Restaurant

Reviewed By florencevl226

We came here based on a local’s recommendation and it was very good. We are outside on the terrace overlooking the port and the market. Upon the owners recommendation I took the king prawns freshly caught. It was delicious. Simple but delicious. We had the octopus tartare and it was very fresh and delicious as well. Grilled calamari was well cooked , melting in our mouth and seasoned to perfection. I would have given you a 5* review but the fact that the lobster was alive in a see trough box in front of me during my lunch, disturbed me. I am obviously not vegan but it was disturbing to have that poor little lobster suffer in front me. I don’t want to see that while I have lunch. Also his legs were sticking out of the box and everything was going through it and I’m sure it hurt him. I observed the reaction of the people walking by and a lot of them had the same reaction as me. It’s maybe better to keep it behind closed doors instead of showing it off.

We were lucky and got the last table for lunch on Sunday, when Marsaxlokk is manic with people strolling around the large market. The restaurant was very busy and this showed in the service, with our vegetables arriving when we were well into the meal.My wife had grilled calamari that was very good and our friend polished the plate of her saffron seafood risotto. I had linguine alla vongole that was very tasty; the portion size was too large for me to cope with.

Looking at both their online menu and the fact that this is TA's #1 for "fine dining", we expected to have something rally fancy. The clues should have been there when we arrived at 8pm - the only people in the restaurant.Lovely modern decor, but a very dated menu - things like duck à l'orange, chicken marsala and beef wellington. Prices are also relatively high by Malta standards.We opted for just a main course. My wife had the beef wellington: nicely cooked except that the pastry on the bottom was raw. The waitress said this was because the beef was medium-rare, but my wife is a brilliant home cook and said that the trick is to cook on a rack so the heat gets to it - sear the meat all round, higher heat for 25 minutes etc etc. I had the beef fillet, which was nicely cooked. The asparagus that came with both meals was way over-cooked, stringy and limp.Considering that we were on our own for an hour, service was quite poor. They did bring us two lots of free drinks at the end, which was nice. I wouldn't go back there again.€99 - definitely not worth the money!Dear David,Thank you so much for taking the time to review us and note that we are number 1 on TripAdvisor for fine dining, something we worked very hard to achieve. We are so fortunate that over 92% of our guests ranked us as either excellent or very good with the majority being 5 star.So we are very disappointed that you did not have the same experience and I did send you a private message to discuss your evening at 59.We appreciate your kind comments on our lovely decor and that we gave you two rounds of complimentary drinks. Regarding our "dated" menu these are classics and sit next to many contemporary dishes. However the menu is on the website, social media and at the front door and you stated that you did see the menu before dining with us so I am not sure why the comments calling it dated. I would appreciate the opportunity to discuss further and ask you to get back to me on the message that I sent.We would love to welcome you back to 59 and show you what the majority of people experience.

Reviewed By Chris A

I have not visited this restaurant for some years but the food is good and it is located opposite St. George's bay BBugia.It took us more than a couple of minutes for a waiter to clear our table, bring us a menu and take an order. I understand that 8pm is the peak time on a Sunday night. If there are 100 patrons seating at the same time, I understand that there must be some minutes delay, however if you are not equipped to cater for such amount of people, you have to get more staff .It took us some time to catch the waiter/waitress attention both to order food and a coffee. We did not bother to order a desert. The service must be improved.
