I travel abroad quite frequently using our national airline, Air Malta, and on the inflight magazine its always a pleasure reading an article about food by chef Etienne, the owner of Lupanara. But the pleasure stops there as this restaurant doesnt match what he writes. The place is outstanding, hidden in the rocky bastions. Nice decor. Intimate. Good service......but thats... More

If you really want to impress your guests, I recommend Lupanara. I was lucky yesterday - we dined outside overlooking the sea and bastions. The weather was marvellous. If you have foreign guests, ask for the Maltese platter and specifically request Maltese olive oil (a great combination with Maltese bread). Great piece of steak - but the fish was also... More

Visited Lupanara for the first time a week ago . Service was very good and the staff were very helpful and well informed about the selection of fish available. Food was very good and cooked to perfection. AtmoSphere was amazIng and the jazz band were perfect. Definitely will be going again More

Excellent food and great ambiance. The only negative aspect was the lack of heating which was sorely missed on a cold and wet winter evening. More
