Top 10 European food in Marsaxlokk, Island of Malta, Malta
Reviews on European food in Marsaxlokk, Island of Malta, Malta. Marsaxlokk (Maltese pronunciation: [marsaʃˈlɔk]) is a traditional fishing village in the South Eastern Region of Malta, with a population of 3,534 as of March 2014. The village’s name comes from marsa, which means "port" and xlokk, which is the local name for south east. The word is related to the name for the dry sirocco wind that blows from the Sahara, comparable to the equivalent Catalan word, "xaloc". The village is known for the Marsaxlokk Market, a large market which takes place around the whole village on Sundays and tourist market all days during the week. The inhabitants of the village are called the Xlukkajri and are historically fishermen.

Our second time visiting Hunters Tower. Service was extremely friendly and the food was...splendid. Everything was super delicious, however the pasta there was the BEST I had. Always fresh fish, the owner even showed me how to filet a whole fish! Restaurant itself is just beautiful. Can't recommend it enough! Definitely worth a visit. Ohh, we even got offered a Limoncello:)

Situated a little further away from the hustle and bustle of Marsaxlokk, Terrone at 1 Wilga Street, is a real gem that we were lucky to stumble upon. We were really looking for the public loos at the time but having been. why not indeed. We hadnât booked but, if you to have a drink while youâre waiting, so with did just that, 15 minutes later who were shown to the table.We started with scallopâs with sandfire were cooked just right, and delicious. For mains I went with the seabass was excellent, I stayed on the beer with a pint of Cisk or two.Not only was the food excellent the owner was so nice and recommended great options to eat. The service was perfect! I highly recommend this restaurant. Overall a highly pleasurable experience, served and executed by locals with that exceptional (and rare) Maltese hospitality flare.

The best restaurant in Marsaxlokk. (2 people dining, aprx. 19:15)Service was truly excellent, friendly, but very professional. We both would recommend to book a table beforehand or be early in the evening when the restaurant opens.We had 2 cocktails, bottle of wine, two mains and dessert with coffee. Price was below what we expected, and quality of each food was first class. We would come back even for the bread, never had better, a big thank you to the whole restaurant, hopefully we will come and see you again!

We came here based on a localâs 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 donât want to see that while I have lunch. Also his legs were sticking out of the box and everything was going through it and Iâm sure it hurt him. I observed the reaction of the people walking by and a lot of them had the same reaction as me. Itâs maybe better to keep it behind closed doors instead of showing it off.

Set menu, wonderful! Everything so nice and fresh. Make a reservation 3 weeks before you want to come! This place is a local favorite because it is so good and so authentic, so you need to reserve a table. Victor himself, the chef, will come out and chat with you about the entrees he has that day. He is really dedicated to the craft, and loves serving excellent food.

Chose this restaurant because of the reviews on Tripadvisor and we were not disappointed. The food was first-rate. We had the seabass and the calamari. Both were fresh and very appetizing. For desert I wanted my friends to taste Maltese 'mqaret' and, although they were not on the menu on that day, the chef still prepared them for us and they were delicious

Visited La Reggia with my wife who has a wheat allergy. Staff were extremely knowledgeable and accommodating. All of the food was fresh and delicious and I would definitely recommend a visit while in Marsaxlokk.Location on the quayside is excellent and perfect place to chill outside. Be careful not to miss it though. We walked past as at first glance, the outside tables look like they are part of the larger pizzeria next door. The restaurant sign isn't as eye catching either. If you eat in one place in Marsaxlokk you won't be disappointed trying this place.

As mains my husband took the pasta with gorgonzola and i with the sausage! Omg it was excellent! Since i was full i took the unfinished pasta with me and two days after it was even better! Will sure visit again! The owner / chef is also a very nice helpful person. Well done :)
