Why We Still Cook the Old Way

The dining room at Gozitan, St Julian’s

Trends come and go. At Gozitan, we have kept cooking traditional Maltese food the same way since 2007, and that is the point.

When Gozitan opened, Maltese cuisine was not yet the draw for visitors that it is today. While many restaurants drifted towards international menus, we kept serving the food of these islands, exactly as it had always been made.

Consistency is the recipe

That decision became our strongest asset. Guests know what Gozitan stands for, and our regulars know the dishes will taste the same this year as they did years ago. In a world of constant change, that consistency is something worth protecting.

Food can be copied. Nearly two decades of doing it the same way cannot.
