de Mondion

Few restaurants in the world enjoy a setting as jaw-dropping as de Mondion. Atop the magnificent Xara Palace Relais & Châteaux hotel, nestled within the ancient fortifications of Mdina — Malta's Silent City — this Michelin-starred gem commands panoramic views over Malta's countryside, villages, and coast that are nothing short of extraordinary. The cuisine is as impressive as the outlook: sophisticated contemporary Mediterranean built from locally sourced seasonal ingredients. Signature dishes include exceptional suckling pig, French-inspired preparations, and desserts of remarkable elegance. The service is warm, the sommelier is outstanding. de Mondion is a once-in-a-trip experience.
