    Easily the best pastizzi and qassata I've ever had. In fact one of the best pastry items I've had after living and travelling all over the world. It's a must try especially if you are new Malta as you can't find this easily in other countries. It is made fresh daily and baked fresh on site by the owner Jamie. He is passionate, warm and loves sharing his tradition and culture. He told me it's a family recipe from the 1940's and his grandfather taught him how to make it. I first tried the spinach Qassata, the pastry is perfectly cooked, velvety, buttery and flakey. The filling is generous and full of flavour. The spinach is almost creamy without being mushy, has a bit of tang with the olives and is hearty. The pastizzi is flakey, soft inside and the bacon gives the mushy peas a nice saltiness. Great value at 1.50 for Qassata and 0.50 for Pastizzi especially considering its fresh and packed so generously. A locals favourite and a must try. Say hello to Jamie!

    I tried a lot of Pastizzi’s during my time in Malta and here are the best Pea pastizzi! The ricotta was a close second.

    Maltese Pastizzi are a unique delicatessen made originally by the Maltese Artisans with a fine pastry texture of a puffy pastry nature and originally filled with a Cheesy or Pea based mix

    Having never had Maltese Pastizzi before we indulged in one plus a Qassata and Peppered Steak Pie. All worth the wait. Service was excellent they explained everything to us novices.

    Very good restaurant. Excellent fish and octopus with a wonderful attitude. When all else was closed, the chefs cooked us food which was well worth the wait.

    Very friendly owner, reasonable prices, with a local authentic feel. Stated he had the best Pastizzi in Malta so had to try one (.50 euro each). It was good but not the best. Fine stop for a quick coffee and snack in the middle of Valletta.
