Assaggio Ristorante is a family-friendly restaurant serving a combination of Italian, Maltese and Mediterranean food. Located in Mellieha, Assaggio has charming views and a relaxed atmosphere.
Malta is just sixty miles from Sicily and its cuisine has always been heavily influenced by its Italian neighbour. Indeed, the restaurant's theme is the blending of the two countries through its cuisine. Taking full advantage of the proximity to Italy, Assaggio uses fresh Italian produce to create its signature dishes.
The menu is not limited to pasta though, it also offers a wide variety of meat, poultry and vegetarian dishes cooked in Maltese or Mediterranean culinary styles. The restaurant also offers a good selection of children's meals and, as the food is all cooked to order, the chefs are very happy to accommodate any food allergies by altering the recipes accordingly.
Assaggio's can seat up to seventy diners and there are further tables for those wishing to dine outside. If you do decide to eat al fresco then you will have a lovely view of the church of Mellieha high on the top of the hill.
