Portobello

As the evening light spills over Malta’s limestone walls, this restaurant stands apart for its unobstructed vistas of the bay, where the water glimmers under the Maltese sky and the city hums with quiet elegance. It’s a place where the setting becomes as much a part of the meal as the food itself. Regulars return for the fried squid and bass, both priced around €20-25 per dish, though the wait can be testing. As one guest noted, the service is ‘another level’, bending over backwards to ensure comfort. Wine and beer are served, making it equally suited for couples seeking romance or families sharing a relaxed meal. The atmosphere is unhurried, with the sea view softening edges—ideal for those who linger. For dinner, Portobello is open until 11:30 PM, and reservations are wise to secure a table by the window. Nearby, the Boro Boro Hotel offers convenience for those staying locally. If you seek a meal where the sea meets the plate, this is where Malta’s coastal charm truly unfolds. It's a natural stop for anyone exploring restaurants in St Paul's Bay.
