Our Story

Forty Fishes — two homes, one family

Forty Fishes is a family-owned Mediterranean seafood restaurant with two locations in Malta — on Triq Ross in St Julian's and on the Gzira waterfront. Both kitchens share the same crew, the same suppliers, and the same belief that great seafood is about freshness, fire and warm hospitality.

We're a multi-ethnic family of cooks and hosts. Diversity is our strength, and our dining rooms are built to feel inclusive — whether you're stopping in for a quick fritto misto and a spritz or settling in for a long, candle-lit dinner of whole grilled fish.

Our seafood is locally sourced, our menus follow the daily catch, and we support the Maltese fishermen and small suppliers who make all of this possible. Two locations, one story: fresh fish, Mediterranean soul, served with care.
