A blend of Mediterranean and Asian cuisine for a fresh perspective.
The name Kaiseki comes from a traditional style of Japanese cuisine in which a series of small, intricate dishes are prepared. It also refers to the required skills and techniques that allow the preparation of these meals, similar to the Haute cuisine of the western world. In today’s world, Kaiseki is considered an art form that balances the flavour, texture, appearance, and colour of food.
Humility and Tradition appear in classical dishes served with a cultural twist.

A small fusion restaurant in a central area of Valletta that doesn’t look much from outside However it’s an excellent choice as it serves some really exquisite dishes. We enjoyed the rabbit ravioli and the katsu rolls and the tiger prawns on Japanese rice is particularly delicious Reasonably priced considering the quality and would definitely recommend

This restaurant merits the Michelin Star it has received. As it was our first visit the owner suggested that we should opt for the tasting menu, which we took. From the very first servings that came out, it was a feast for the eyes and a party taste sensation in your mouth. It just kept getting better and better! The Mediterranean and Asian fusion is second to none and there was no need to add any salt or pepper as the seasonings were perfect for each, and every dish. The service was excellent and we were lucky enough to have the owner and chef to explain every dish to us. We will definitely be going back, and we naturally recommend a visit.
