Thai restaurant
Tikka's Thai Street Food is a popular spot known for its authentic Thai street food. With branches in San Gwann, Ta Xbiex, and Naxxar, it offers a variety of classic dishes such as Green, Red and Yellow Curries, Pad Thai, Tom Yam Koong, Tom Kha Gai, and Larb Ghai. The restaurant has garnered positive reviews for its flavorful dishes like King prawn pad Thai and garlic crispy chicken.
Was a bit concerned after reading the last review for this place BUT happy to report the food was amazing; flavour, texture, value for money, portions and the lovely staff. We had King prawn pad Thai and garlic crispy chicken. Don't miss out - it's all good here. Simple seating outside but we had the best meal. Recommended!!

I opted for the Pad Mie noodles, and they arrived promptly with a generous serving size. While the flavour was reminiscent of homemade noodles, it didn't particularly stand out. Nonetheless, I'm intrigued to explore other dishes on their menu during my next visit.

I was really enthusiast of this place, and gave them 5 stars before... but we ordered yesterday (15th of January, 2022) and something changed drastically, so that's why I'm giving 1 star now. The photos you can see here are the old good packaging, when this place was still good... but now they replaced them with ordinary ones, of lower quality and packed with less care. The food also has changed: now it's totally flat, with almost no more taste. They also totally changed some recipes, like the basil chicken. What a deep disappointment. This place is not worth anymore. Please bring back the old Tikkas !!!.

I orders Tom yam soup here … it was disgusting, nothing common with real Tom yam by far! They put there carrots, a lot of onions and broccoli, which are never in original recepì!!! Totally disappointed. Never again to buy here something! If people present that it is Thai cuisine , they should know how it cooks, and don’t do parody.

Stylish coffee place in Naxxar. Dogs are allowed which makes it a nice spot for dog-watching. Coffee is good and they also have a nice selection of cakes. They close at 19.00.

The restaurant is beautiful decorated and it is a very welcoming environment. The food was really tasty and enjoyable. The portion sizes were also quite generous. The staff were nice and attentive. The only downside is that the food and drinks took a quite a while to arrive, other than that it was great time!

Came in with a friend. She took a croissant with red salmon, I took myself, orange juice with carrots and ginger.The situation itself is not bad. I didn’t like the way the waitress handed the glass to me, holding it from above. Simple rules: never serve glasses holding them on top or paw the plate The plate should be served from below, lying on the palm of the hand. My friend had a croissant and put a salad ,Looks 2-3 days old. 🤦. Then I went to the restroom 🤦. This is a famous cafe, but the toilet has no air freshener, the toilet itself is not cleaned. There is a store in the same building. I liked the store itself. Everything is hung by color. We looked at things, naturally we touched them. Before we could leave, the salesman followed us and fixed everything. I liked the coat. But seeing the face with which the seller followed us and another woman. I didn’t want to ask anything, much less buy anything. Don't judge people by their clothes Now is the time. A person can come in in nondescript clothes, but there is enough money on his bank card to buy more than one thing.So I'm not very satisfied. This establishment 😖😖😖😖

I have always visited this place for breakfast although the lunch menu is intriguing as well. The servers are always polite and welcoming. Atmosphere is relaxing. Totally recommend the pistacchio cappuccino.

Not as I thought..I love animals but not inside in a small space, you trying to eat and the dog shaking his fur around. It felt disgusting, there were 2 guests with dogs, otherwise nothing special about desert , the accent is more on the concept fashion/ cafe kind a place. Anyway , I'm not going to visit again.

Food tastes and looks great, but service is poor. Waited quite a while to be given a table, and was informed that my dish was unavailable 20 minutes after ordering. Waitress forgot the bill when we asked for it too. Doubt I’ll rush back

Kimchi Asian Fusion provides an outstanding dining experience for families and celebrations. The food is fresh, well-prepared, and presented beautifully, offering intriguing flavors that cater to various tastes. The set menu offers great value while the service exceeds expectations with its exceptional standards. The chefs and their team deserve compliments for their hard work. Kimchi Asian Fusion also impresses with its excellent food portions and friendly yet unobtrusive staff. Notably, the pannacotta showcases a sophisticated understanding of flavors.
We had a fantastic family evening. Food was fresh, a well prepared delectable meal with great presentation interesting flavour,and great value for a set menu to suit our family and service was an exceptional high standard. Would recommend this experience to anyone, it's a must for any kind of celebration. Compliment to the chefs and their team much appreciated Tina🙂

The food was very good and authentic. We opted for the tasting menu, and it was worth it as we got to taste a lot of different dishes that are on the menu. Service was slightly slow, especially since it was not busy, but he was polite and friendly. The atmosphere was ok, but would normally expect a bit more for these type of restaurants. The roof top was unfortunately closed

Had a fantastic experience at Kimchi. Food was excellent, with very decently sized portions, and the staff are very friendly and non-intrusive. I particularly enjoyed the pannacotta, which showed off a high level of understanding in flavours. Prices are reasonable and overall experience is very enjoyable, highly recommended

Editing the review as it keep being taken down although it is the pure truth! Text redacted to pass guidelines which apparently I am not meeting. Bad experience, food was awful. I wouldn’t go back again. We were looking for a nice place which can aconitine nice fusion to Mediterranean cuisine, quite similar to how is done in other famous places here. We were disappointed overall and we do not recommend it to anyone. If you like Korean cuisine, this won’t be the food for you! Kimchi wasn’t kimchi. Photos show better than words. The server kept insisting it was amazing… my husband’s stomach and mine felt bad less than an 1 hour after and we kept burping. The tables are dirty, the service was slow. The only good thing was a fried egg and plain jasmine rice without salt or any seasoning in it. That’s it.

Had dinner with a friend here tonight! The food looked good and tasted even yummier...but the icing AND the cherry on the very delicious cake was the engaging personality of Jean Pierre who was as delightful as can be and a true asset to the place. Definitely recommend giving it a go!

High quality and delicious food. I think the spring rolls are fresh and hand-made, and not frozen, as the ones you find in other Asian restaurants, and this make a big difference! Recommended

JAVA in Naxxar, Malta is a popular spot for breakfast and brunch. The cozy indoor space is inviting, but sitting outside to enjoy the sun while sipping on delicious coffee is recommended. Known for its refreshing smoothie bowls and locally roasted coffee, JAVA offers a variety of healthy and tasty dishes including bagels, sourdough, poached eggs, salads, fresh juices and shakes.
Best in town. I love it. Delicious coffee and breakfast.

We ordered some breakfast with water, coffee and juice. Took 20mins to get the water and nearly 50mins before our food arrived. They seemed more focused on welcoming new people and taking more orders than reassuring those that were seated. Amazing food tho. Excellent coffee but don’t go here if you are in a rush.

Wanted to try out this place due to the raving reviews and the amount of recommendations.. unfortunately I was quite disappointed with the food, the beverages and the service. Ok it was a Sunday, but waiting nearly 20 mins at a time for a menu, to order and to receive food is a bit much. Something that could have taken 30-40 mins in total took over 1hr and a half. The food wasn’t that good to be honest, the chicken bagel was the best of the two. The service was slow and not one of the people working there had a smile on their face.

I found it to be my fave brunch place in Malta! Tasty food, big portion, great selection and variety, aesthetically pleasing presentation of the food. Place is very cute, we were there on a Sunday at 11am, it was full inside but only needed to wait for about 10-12 minutes to get a seat. (From 12pm onwards there were always at least 1 empty table available.) Highly recommend!

Beer Head is a popular craft beer bottle shop and tasting room in Malta, offering indoor and outdoor seating. They have a wide selection of craft beers, including their own brews, making it a great place to relax after shopping. The staff is knowledgeable and offers interesting backstories on each beverage. Additionally, they offer featured beers on tap and growlers for purchase. With a good variety of tins and bottles available, there's something for everyone at Beer Head.
Great place to discover your next new favourite beer. Open until late in the evening it serves as both a specialist shop where you can get the biggest variety of beer in the area and as a casual bar to sit and enjoy your brew. Great staff and good offers, I highly recommend

Well worth standing on the 202 to get here from Sliema. With a good selection of tins and bottles on the shelves, and at least 3 taps there is something for everyone. I did the Brewdog thing - fly the flag etc. Wifey had a Sticky West Coast IPA from Gross 6.7%. -1 star for the poor toilet arrangement - guys have to hold the toilet seat up. Thanks for the wet shirt tails guys!

Most of the beers you can imagine and want (Where's Estrella Galicia, and 1906⁉️). It's worth giving it a try, and visit either during an evening or noon, as the sidewalk surprisingly permits, (maybe the widest sidewalk on the island), and you may enjoy some calm with a great beer in the hammock. ✌️

Best craft beer shop in Malta in terms of thoughtfully hand-selected options for discerning clientele. Featured beer on tap is offered and growlers can be purchased on site. The staff is extremely knowledgeable and this is certainly where to buy craft beers in Malta if you are looking for an informed purchase, and an interesting backstory on each beer, ale, hard seltzer, craft cider, or unique spirits. Amazingly, this is also the best hot sauce shop in Malta. Challenge yourself with hot sauces so spicy they have been feature on Hot Ones. Or, have the staff make suggestion on entry level sauces for beginners or on sauces which can take a meal from dull to dang that's tasty! For artisanal beers in Malta, this is the place to go. We are so lucky to have this beer store in Naxxar!
