Sammy’s Il-Kcina Tal-Barakka

A MUST visit!! Very fresh and delicious food, for really good prices. As can be seen in the photos, these are the prosciutto and burrata and calamari fritti staters and the linguini with mixed seafood and creamy chicken pasta. The service is friendly and helpful while the atmosphere is very homey which overall just adds onto the beautiful Xatt view. Had a really great time, will definitely be visiting again.

Best fried calamari we had in Malta/Gozo! Very good fish of the day (sea bass), ravioli was very nice as well. You can pay with a card here.

Beyond expectation. Went with friend & Rose was so welcoming and her recommendations were excellent. We were welcomed with free good bruschetta. As starter we had aljotta - local fish soup 🍲. We met Chef George who prepared the fresh fish 🐟TOP NOTCH. FRESH fish & food at very good price🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

We had dinner here yesterday and were really impressed. The prices are very reasonable, the service was super friendly and attentive, and the food was absolutely delicious. We’ve honestly never had ravioli this good before. If we didn’t live in Germany, we would definitely come back here on a regular basis.

Very tasty food, the scallops were amazing and unique. The octopus pasta was amazing. There was more then enough food.

Situated just off the harbour, with a shadey terrace at the other side of the street, it's quite unassuming and when we got there, without guests. The food is delicious, the fresh fish brought out and served wonderfully fresh. While we were eating, more people showed up and the other terrace filled up quite easily. Still, compared to the more hurriedly busy spots along the harbour, this is a highly recommended find. Prices are very reasonable, staff is quite friendly, the bruscchetta on the house is a great treat. Highest possible recommendation.

Sammy’s Sammy’s Il-Kcina Tal-Barraka is a small, iconic local restaurant located in Mgarr Harbour. We are told it was named after Sam, one of the two brothers who own Glen Eagle Bar, which sits above the restaurant. Their specialty is fresh fish purchased from one of the local fishermen bringing in the morning catch. Gozatins and Maltese have been going to the budget-friendly eatery for years. Everybody is welcome and treated like family. It is most likely you will be greeted by Rose when you come in. Rose has been running the restaurant for the last twelve years. I love the seafood pasta. It is filled with all the freshest catches of the season. King prawns, mussels, clams, and calamari most often. You can enjoy beer-battered fish and chips, burgers, vegan options, or a juicy steak. However, Sammy’s is best known for the fresh local catch of the day. Rose will bring out the iced fish to make your selection. Do not forget their mouth-watering deserts. You can call them at 7959 2952 for reservations.

Budget price for delicious food. The best fried rabbit I’ve ever tried in Malta, also big portions of main dishes. Very helpful and friendly staff.
