Michelin-starred dining, modern Maltese cuisine, historic building

"Housed in a 400-year-old building on central Republic Street, this restaurant from Jonathan and Ritienne Brincat brings international experience (Melbourne among them) to a fresh, Michelin-star-winning take on traditional Maltese recipes; plates to note include a ricotta raviolo with clams and beetroot and an octopus tagine with fregola, dates and preserved orange." - Rick Jordan

"What was once the home of ‘Xmun Borg & Sons Bakery & Confectionery’ has transformed into an equally charming restaurant. You can enjoy a quiet meal on the ground floor or opt for a livelier atmosphere by heading downstairs, past the kitchen, to the stylish, stone-walled cellar. The restaurant’s moniker comes from the nickname of owner-chef Jonathan Brincat, who brings a refined, modern touch to traditional Maltese and Mediterranean cuisine. His visually appealing, well-balanced dishes are crafted with precision and attention to detail. To minimize waste and offer unique flavors, the restaurant features only a tasting menu that highlights seasonal and fresh ingredients. This sustainable approach extends to the wellbeing of the staff, who have access to local therapists, and the support of local producers. Additionally, the restaurant offers an extensive selection of drinks and cocktails made from sustainable ingredients." - Michelin Inspector

"Titled after the nickname of chef-owner Jonathan Brincat, Michelin-Starred Noni offers two different dining spaces: a calm ground floor and a livelier stone-walled cellar. Fresh, great quality seasonal ingredients are showcased in eye-catching, well-balanced dishes which bring an original, modern approach to traditional Maltese and Mediterranean cuisine." - The MICHELIN Guide UK Editorial Team
