The general rule used to be: the better the view, the worse the food.
And we can only appreciate the irony of that now as tasty spots like the Valletta Waterfront are starting to populate our long-ignored waterfront.
Here to help the cause: La Vecchia Dogana, your new harbour-side fish restaurant formerly the old customs house dates back to the 15th century. The sleek interior design contrasts the newly restored building which retains all of its charm and
excellent location.
While you might have already gotten your early morning snack, you’ll want to remember the restaurant when you’re looking for a place to lunch.
When the sun goes down, is when things start to get interesting. Take advantage of the open terrace at the water’s edge and enjoy the days catch of fish which is presented to you before it is cooked.
La Vecchia Dogana is located below Valletta bastions on Marsamxett side.
