Charming family-run restaurant where the owners themselves provide service, making the experience feel personal and welcoming. The cuisine is traditional Maltese, prepared with fresh, local ingredients and everything we tried was absolutely delicious. Their homemade liqueurs are also a must-try!
The concept of the restaurant is unique, offering a dining experience that stands out. A touching moment was meeting the owner’s wife, who is Ukrainian - when she heard her native language, she got emotional 🥹

If you’re in Malta, this place is a must-visit. You’ll leave completely satisfied and with a warm heart🫶

Wow wow wow! Fantastic concept allowing us to get a sample of how amazing Maltese food can be.
We went for lunch and not only was the food DELICIOUS but the service was exceptional too. Thomas was very friendly and welcoming, talked us through each course but also had so much knowledge about the wines. We did not opt for the wine pairing but went for wine by glass instead. Thomas gave us recommendations based on what we like as well as what may go well with the food. All 3 wines we tried were brilliant!
Loved this experience and would highly recommend it. I also felt it was very good value for money considering the quality of food & service that you receive. Thank you!

Great experience! They have a set menu for lunch and another for dinner. That's all you have. A 5 course surprise meal.
Each and every dish was delicious. Maltese food is perfectly cooked and really fresh and genuine. The host brought each course and took time to explain the dish.
The venue is traditional and gives you the feeling of stepping back in time.
The service team is lovely and very welcoming.
Absolutely a must, especially if you are visiting the island and looking for a good Maltese meal.

The tasting concept works really well! It was interesting to try these dishes, and it’s great that they’re served in a way that makes sharing easy (especially if you’re a pair). I think it’s definitely worth a try – the meals were delicious. Some dishes suited my taste more than others, but that doesn’t change the fact that it was a great choice to visit this place

We decided to try this restaurant because we only had a short stay in Malta and wanted to try different local foods without committing to a whole dish. The tasting menu was perfect for that. We got to try the famous rabbit, fresh seafood, nice dips and spreads, and more. We were completely stuffed by the end. It is a bit pricey for very homey, unfussy dishes. Still, it’s a good option if you want a nice variety of Maltese food. We had leftovers to bring home.

Tuttavia, ci sono alcuni aspetti da considerare. Il menu non offre opzioni à la carte, il che può limitare la scelta per alcuni clienti. La capacità del locale è piuttosto ridotta, quindi è consigliabile prenotare in anticipo, soprattutto nelle sere più affollate.

Legligin

Vi har haft en 7 rätters avsmakningsmeny. Det är en liten atmosfärisk restaurang som ligger på en sidogata utanför gamla stan i Valletta. Det är en upplevelse, personalen är kunnig om maten och vinet de serverar. Portionsstorlekarna är stora, utmärkt kvalitet. Skulle säkert återvända när nästa i Valletta.

Lunch avsmakningsmenyn var en bra introduktion till maltesisk mat. Traditionellt bröd med olivolja och husets vita vin. De förrätter jag gillade mest var gnocchi, tomatpuré och korv. Den traditionella fisksoppan, kaninpastan, fläskkinderna med rostad potatis och brödpuddingen var smakrika.

Avsmakningsmenyn är mycket, mycket bra gjort - 7 rätters läckerhet från början till slut. Desserterna vi hade (tiramisù och crême brûlée) var mycket bra men inte enastående (som resten var). Personalen var mycket trevlig och hjälpsam. Skulle definitivt rekommendera!

Detta är en mat- och vinupplevelse. Maten var härlig, rejäl maltesisk mat med en VALFRI vinparning för att matcha varje rätt. Personalen är super vänliga och mycket kunniga på vinet. Rekommenderas starkt och ett måste att boka.

Wow, vår 1 street dining upplevelse på Malta. Det här blir svårt att slå. 7 rätter serveras utan meny så en blind matupplevelse. Dessutom beställde vi även den matchande vinupplevelsen. Den unga kvinnliga sommelieren (tyvärr fick hon inte sitt namn) var en källa till kunskap både om vinet och maten. Varje rätt smakade fantastiskt från lokala maltesiska aptitretare i tapasstil till kaninpastarätten och havsbraxenrätten var enastående. Om vi hade tid vi skulle definitivt återbesöka medan på denna resa. Men vi kommer definitivt tillbaka. All personal var enastående. En fantastisk upplevelse att starta vår vecka på Malta.

Vilken fantastisk upplevelse. 7 rätter fantastisk mat, alla lokala rätter och 7 vackra viner som parades ihop med maten. Personalen var alla så vänliga och kunniga om maten och vinet. Mycket mycket rekommenderas! !

Vi kom för 5 rätters lunch med vin parningar och allt var fantastiskt! Maten var mycket autentisk och alla rätter var helt utsökt. Gillade speciellt den första rätten där vi åt tapa bestående av lokala delikatesser. Servicen var fantastisk och de hade alla stor lokalkännedom och tog sig tid att förklara varje kurs och vinparningar. Alla vinparningar bestod av lokala viner som var en fröjd att prova.

Denna restaurang är lite annorlunda. Först av allt är det undangömt i en smal brant gata. Menyn är en 7-rätters provsmakare med möjlighet till matchande viner. Värden är mycket kunnig och förklarade hur det hela fungerar. Jag tycker att det är rättvist att säga att vi njöt av vissa kurser och viner bättre än andra men vi njöt grundligt av upplevelsen.

Vi åt här för vår årsdag och det levde upp till tillfället. Vi har haft alla 7 rätter och vinflygningen. Mat och Service var utmärkt. Skulle definitivt återvända!

Vi hade en fantastisk middag här! Servicen var uppmärksam, kunnig och välkomnande utan att vara overbearing. Sommelieren var särskilt personlig och vi var glada att ha valt vinparningar. Tidpunkten för kurser och portionsstorlekar var perfekt för oss, och vår server lät oss vila mellan kurserna när vi behövde en paus. Vi älskade variationen av rätter (kaninlever, fisksoppa, bläckfisk, aubergine fylld med fläsk, och mer) som vi fick prova och är glada att vi kunde ha en så fin och fantastisk middag här.

Vi bokade Legligin på rekommendation av min maltesiska vän som nu bor i Storbritannien. De erbjuder en 7-rätters avsmakningsmeny för middag för Euro 45 . Restaurangen är rustik och har en riktigt vänlig / lokal känsla om det. Middagen var utmärkt - rejäl maltesisk matlagning när den är som bäst och utmärkt värde. Min vän hade matchande 7-rätters vinflygning. Mitt enda negativa är att portionerna är lite på den stora storleken, som efter 7 rätter, kom vi ut riktigt mätta. Med detta sagt, om du letar efter utmärkt maltesisk matlagning, då jag skulle starkt rekommendera.

Mat från början till slut var utmärkt och bra värde på 45 euro för en sjurätters avsmakningsmeny. Vi hade vinparningen som vi fann pretentiös. Det fanns ett urval av 2 vinparningar - Standard för 40 euro och 70 euro för Premium. Deras hemsida får en att tro att för 40 euro serveras du premiumviner - inget omnämnande av ett dyrare alternativ. Jag anser att det inte bör finnas något val av vinparningar eftersom det inte finns något sätt att veta vad skillnaden kan vara. Att gå för det billigare alternativet tyder på att de erbjuder sämre vin.

En charmig restaurang med härlig mat och härlig service. De skapar verkligen en upplevelse som påminner om att äta middag hemma hos din maltesiska mormor. Platserna är vackra och de matchar inte. Tallrikarna svämmar över av traditionell maltesisk matlagning och priset är svårt att tro med en sjurätters avsmakningsmeny för 45 € ! ! ! Vi älskade det här stället... Jag rekommenderar reservationer eftersom det var upptagen med mycket nöjda matgäster.

Vilken födelsedagspresent, överraskningsmomentet var bra. Det kändes verkligen speciellt att ha upplevt denna plats, varje kurs var oklanderlig. Personalen är så varm och kocken är superduktig förstås.

Aldrig varit på en avsmakningsmeny förut men om andra är så bra som denna kommer jag att prova mer. Ett mycket rimligt pris för en mängd olika hemlagade, lokala rätter. Jag trodde att jag kanske var hungrig på slutet men var verkligen inte det! Varje rätt var god , det fanns ingen jag ogillade . En flaska maltesiskt vin var utmärkt. Vänlig, kunnig ägare. En perfekt kväll.
