"Fantastic location, atmosphere and food. We had the salt-baked sea bass and octopus — both were outstanding. The food lived up to the high expectations, and the staff were incredibly warm and professional."
Fresh fish, soul and sunshine — in the heart of Mellieħa
Liska Restaurant is beautifully situated on Parish Square in the historic centre of Mellieħa — one of Malta's most picturesque towns. With panoramic views and fresh sea air, we invite you to a meal that celebrates the very best of the Mediterranean.
We specialise in fresh fish and seafood rooted in the Sicilian and Southern Italian kitchen. Every dish is prepared with care and passion — from salt-baked sea bass to linguine with the day's catch.
The atmosphere is relaxed yet elegant. A place where you can take your time — and savour every single bite.
Every dish is a tribute to Mediterranean ingredients — prepared with passion and served with warmth.
Whole sea bass baked in a crust of coarse salt — a classic preparation that locks in all the flavour and juiciness. Filleted tableside.
Tenderly prepared octopus with Sicilian spices, olive oil compote and citrus. A signature dish we are proud of.
Fresh linguine with prawns, mussels and squid in a light white wine and tomato sauce. Simple — and unforgettable.
Whole sea bream grilled to perfection and prepared tableside. Finished with fresh herbs and lemon oil.
Rich broth with the day's catch, Mediterranean vegetables and braised spices. A warm embrace in bowl form.
For those who prefer meat — our pasta with ribeye strips, parmesan and fresh rocket is a safe and satisfying choice.
