Fishermans rest

4.1(393 reviews)

About

In Malta, Fishermans rest occupies 138 Xatt is-Sajjieda, Marsaxlokk MXK 1307, Malta, a waterfront address in the island's south-east. The category is restaurant, and the setting puts it among the fishing boats and market stalls that give Marsaxlokk its character.

Diners have left 393 reviews and an average of 4.1 out of 5, a steady record for a Marsaxlokk kitchen. Valletta, Birgu (Vittoriosa), Sliema and St. Julian's are all within reach for anyone staying in the harbour area. Marsaxlokk itself is known for its Sunday fish market, and the address on Xatt is-Sajjieda places the restaurant right on that quayside strip.

First-time visitors should expect a seafood-led menu, since Maltese cooking draws on Mediterranean and North African influences and leans on fresh fish. The swimming season runs from May to October, and summer afternoons often bring the hot, humid scirocco wind, so an evening table suits the heat better.

Buses connect Marsaxlokk with Valletta and the other harbour towns, making a day trip straightforward without a car. Malta sits on a major bird migration route, and the blue rock thrush is the national bird, so spring and autumn bring extra life to the coast.
