Sunday lunch was once again our excuse to dine out. Garra restaurant was suggested and we duly complied, all four of us studiied well the menu even before we got there by looking through the online menu which looked very much promising. We went for a starter which was a local platter which we shared and with accompanying wine and... More

We arrived in Qawra Malta on Friday and took the suggestion of a local storekeeper to visit Garra for good Maltese food. We could not have been happier. The wait person suggested what we should order from start to finish ...from Maltese Cheese, Maltese bread, a plate of fish appetizers and two whole fish....all wonderful and reasonable. The chief Antoine... More

Starter took 45mins to arrive. Main course took over 1hour 30 minutes from order. The fillet was very very raw fron inside and almost burnt from the outside, even though we clearly instructed the waiter to prepare it with no traces of blood. It took the staff 2 attempts to get it right. On the other hand, the staff were... More

I visited Garra restaurant on a Saturday evening. Staff were super friendly just like when you're invited for dinner at your friend's house :) Food was great and filling. Very good prices.Varied food menu, varied wine menu. I am very likely to return to this restaurant and I highly recommend it :)

We recently visited Malta and ate in the Garra Restaurant more than one occasion, as we felt it was one of the best places to eat in Qawra. The atmposhere and hospitality was second to none and the food simply wonderful. I would certainly recommend the fish soup which is sublime and the best I have ever tasted, if you're... More

Food was nothing special. Atmosphere is crappy. With tourists looking down at you from their balconies. One can find nicer places in the area with similar price tag
