The Medina Restaurant

An unforgettable dining experience at Medina Restaurant! From the moment we walked in, everything was flawless. The ambiance is elegant yet welcoming, and the service was outstanding, attentive without being intrusive. We shared the middle eastern sharing plates and had the Maltese- style rabbit. The rabbit arancini was also a treat. Every bite showed why Medina has earned its Michelin star! If you're looking for a truly special dining spot while you visit the city of Mdina, Medina Restaurant is worth every penny. Can’t wait to come back!

I had rabbit meat here for the first time — surprisingly not bad! That said, I probably won’t be rushing to have it again anytime soon 😅. We sat in the garden area, which was a bit warmer and cozier (read: smaller) than the photos had me believe. Still, the staff were lovely, and the fish dish was genuinely delicious. All in all, a fun and memorable experience!

George and the team did a great job to find us a table on a busy Monday. The place is lovely! The atmosphere was relaxing. The setting quite beautiful. The food ranged from very good (Arabic starter platter and pasta with meat) to good (ravoil) to just ok (cauliflower was slightly undercooked). Easter dessert went down a treat. Ice tea and panacotta could be given a miss. Overall the rating is a 4, but 4.5 if we include George’s service!

This restaurant was on another level. The building itself is breathtakingly beautiful. The servers are real professionals. The food was nice. Portions were on the smaller side, but the taste balances it out. The rabbit lasagne was the winner, but the pan-fried rabbit was not as great. The arabic platter sharer-starter on the other hand is a must try.

The food was good. I loved the atmosphere and the fact that it's located inside the Mdina. The service was good as the drinks and food came right on time. However, I didn't hear from my waitress after I placed my order. No one offered dessert so I ended up skipping it.

It was an impromptu stop at The Medina for an afternoon bite while strolling the beautiful streets of Mdina. We had a perfect table in the bar area and enjoyed the quiet calm atmosphere with good music. We ordered the Arabic sharing plate and a couple drinks…recommending the prosecco for a light accompaniment. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. The service was wonderful. We were so happy we stopped. It will be a memorable experience from our trip to Malta.

I really enjoyed dining at The Medina. It’s such an oasis of calm, in the heart of the bustling Mdina. The food was very good; I especially liked the snail risotto. Service was prompt and attentive. Get a seat in the covered courtyard for best ambiance.

We had an amazing lunch there. Would highly recommend for some lovely Maltese cuisine and good service. Would definitely come again!
