ION Harbour By Simon Rogan

Where to Eat, Stay, and Play in Valletta, Malta's Eccentric Capital | Condé Nast Traveler

"Opened during the pandemic, I found this harbourside restaurant to be something very special, notable for its sweeping views across the harbour and for sourcing ingredients from farms, foragers and fishermen across the island; signature, impeccably tweezered dishes include a grilled brassica salad and a stuffed grouper with black courgettes and watercress. The original chef Alex Dilling left to open in London, and Simon Rogan (of L’Enclume) has since taken over the kitchen. It is the island's only two-Michelin-star restaurant." - Rick Jordan

By Leaning into Its Past, Malta Is Shining a Light on Its Future | Condé Nast Traveler

"At Ion Harbour, long-unsung local ingredients are being reimagined on the plate: dishes like rossi prawn and sea jelly with a whey-and-smoked-pike-roe sauce helped the restaurant become the island's first two-starred Michelin restaurant last year, and its wine list includes offerings from indigenous grape varieties such as Ġellewża and Girgentina." - Adam H. Graham

"On the sea front, on the fourth floor of Iniala Harbour House, one of the most elegant hotels in Malta, you’ll find impeccable service, a great view and truly special cuisine at ION Harbour. The kitchen is led by chef Simon Rogan, who holds Three Michelin Stars for his Lake District restaurant, L’Enclume, in the UK. Resident chef Oli Marlow offers complex dishes, using produce grown, reared or caught from the Maltese islands wherever possible, following the chef’s farm-to-fork philosophy.Our advice is to reserve one of the tables alongside the windows on the terrace (covered and heated in winter) to enjoy an even more spectacular view. The wine list is extraordinary, featuring around 500 bottles offered in various tasting journeys, as well as a wide selection available by the glass." - Michelin Inspector
