Piccolo Padre
St. Julian's, Malta
About
Normally, I am very wary of restaurants which are centrally located in tourist hot-spots, especially those which command fantastic views, as the quality of the food is often compromised. Piccolo Padre is definitely an exception. They make truly amazing pizzas and pastas which could easily be the best you will ever taste on the island. The interior decor is rustic with a modern twist. I suggest booking in advance, as the place is very popular with locals and tourists alike most of the days, especially week-ends. Ask for a table outside on one of the terraces if the weather is pleasant enough, for a fantastic meal on the water's edge. I have been to the place several times, and although at times it can be crowded, I was never disappointed.
