Saw locals eating here which in my book is always a good sign. I wasn't disappointed the service was good and the food was delicious. Not overly expensive either considering it's at a tourist attraction. Well done keep up the good work

Came here on Sunday (28th April) late morning for food before starting my adventure in Mdina old city and was served by a young girl and her father or grandfather (not too sure as I didn't get their names so can only describe) I had a burger, chips and salad and it was the best I have ever tasted They served me with a smile, friendly, were very polite and I could see that they were hard working people who care about good customer service it was busy but people were not waiting long They have extremely reasonable prices, lots of seats to sit down on if you choose to stay and eat next to the kiosk if you want to take food to go you can and there are many other benches stones to sit on nearby too Bins are provided so don't forget to clean up after yourself and leave the place as you find it when you visit I would definitely recommend it was a pleasant stop to get something tasty to eat before exploring in the area Many thanks for your great food and kind hospitality, a lovely start to my holiday
