The Griffin Brasserie

Perched on the ridge of Rabat within Verdala Wellness Hotel, The Griffin Brasserie combines contemporary Mediterranean dining with sweeping views of the surrounding valley and Mdina’s historic skyline. Its elegant yet welcoming interiors offer a relaxed setting for leisurely breakfasts, weekend lunches and intimate dinners. Natural light fills the dining room, while the outdoor terrace invites guests to enjoy the changing colours of the landscape. As evening approaches, warm lighting, attentive service and a carefully curated wine and cocktail selection create an inviting atmosphere, perfect for dining without rushing.

Led by Chef Victor Borg and Head Chef Brady Dalli, the kitchen celebrates fresh, seasonal ingredients through thoughtfully crafted Mediterranean dishes. Begin with the stuffed local zucchini flowers, presented in three ways with caponata, local sheep cheese and mushroom. Seafood lovers can enjoy the wild seabass, flavoured with preserved lemon and white miso, a dish designed for sharing. For meat lovers, the impressive 800g ribeye on the bone, served with salsa verde and sauce bordelaise, is a firm favourite. To finish, discover The Griffin’s much-loved Chef’s Dessert Trolley, showcasing a tempting selection of freshly prepared desserts, beautifully presented tableside for guests to choose their favourite indulgence.
