Marsaxlokk · Malta
The catch of the harbour, on a table by the sea.
Seafood & Mediterranean kitchen, Marsaxlokk. Fish landed a few metres from our door, grilled simply, served with Maltese sunshine and a glass of something cold.
Welcome
A fishing village kitchen
Mr Fitz sits across the road from the Marsaxlokk promenade, where the painted luzzu boats sway in the water and the Sunday fish market spills along the quay. It is one of the last places in Malta where dinner still depends on what the boats brought in that morning.
Our kitchen is deliberately unfussy: whole fish over charcoal, octopus stewed slow with red wine, bread baked to be torn, olive oil poured generously. Everything else is up to the sunset.
From the kitchen
What we cook
Six kitchens under one roof: starters and platters to share, wood-oven pizza, pasta rolled in-house, the day's catch weighed at the counter, grilled meats and a long cocktail list for the sunset.
Fisherman's catch
Catch of the day weighed at the counter, grilled swordfish, seabass and red snapper, octopus in garlic and our seafood platter.
Homemade pasta
Linguine vongole, tortellacci of lobster and crab, spaghetti octopus and carbonara folded with Pecorino Romano.
Pizza
San Marzano D.O.P. tomato and Fior di Latte — from La Regina to the Gozitana with Maltese sausage and baked potato.
Butcher's knife
USDA Black Angus rib eye, 650g tagliata, slow-cooked ribs and pan-seared duck with cranberry.
Cocktails & drinks
Spritzes, mocktails and classics — plus happy hour every day from 4:30 to 6:30pm.
“Eat where the fishermen eat, watch the sun fall behind the boats, and stay for one more bottle.”
The village
The harbour that feeds Malta
Phoenician traders, Ottoman fleets, Napoleon's ships and generations of fishing families have all anchored in this bay. Today it is Malta's busiest fishing port and home to the island's best-loved Sunday market.
