Bahia - Balzan

I chose a plant-based 8-course dinner at this restaurant. It is difficult to express this experience in words. These were dishes of the highest quality with rarely heard ingredients that gave the palate a fiesta of flavors not yet tasted. It's heartwarming when a restaurant puts as much effort into preparing plant-based dishes as it does conventional dishes. Careful work was felt in every dish. I also had the opportunity to taste local wines by the glass. The service was friendly and professional. I dream of coming back here again in the future.

We had high hopes for Bahia based on the Michelin review and Google photos. We were planning to go for the ala carte menu, but upon review nothing stood out to us, so we opted for the ‘old Malta’ prix fix for 8 courses (the courses are unknown at the time of ordering). We were not blown away. Favorites were the palette cleanser and desserts. The fish and rabbit main courses were OK. We tend to be underwhelmed by places like this, so take this review with a grain of salt if small tasting menus are your jam.

Wow, what a place located in a wonderfull hotel. We went for the Gourmet Menu past it was a dining experience through the history of Malta. It was one of the most enjoyfull dinners we had for a long time. The food was great and really nice. The staff was very friendly and did a great job! How ever i think the waiting time between the courses was a bit long. But this wasnt a problem since we had enough things to talk about. After the dinner, as we were the last guests, we were even invited to take a look inside the kitchen and have a little talk with the chef and sous chef. They all did a great job and deserve this 1* in the Guide Michelin!! Thanks for this great evening. Were coming back to try the future menue one day!

Amazing experience. The food and service were fantastic. Four stars because some dishes portions were unreasonable even for a high end restaurant. Otherwise the flavors were to die for. I highly recommend the past. The rabbit saddle was incredible. See the portion of the prawn dish. The portions should be a little more for some of the courses.

Your service is truly exceptional, and the food surpasses expectations with its incredible flavors. Opting for the taste menu is a must, as it presents a delightful explosion of tastes. The soothing bossa nova-style music enhances the cozy atmosphere, making the experience even more comfortable and enjoyable.
