Diar il-Bniet
A family-run farmhouse restaurant in Dingli, serving seasonal traditional Maltese dishes made with home-grown ingredients.
Located at 121 Main Street in the village of Dingli, close to the Dingli Cliffs, this restaurant is run by a local family. The restaurant prides itself on sourcing ingredients from its own land, growing fruits and vegetables according to the season. The menu is based on traditional Maltese recipes and changes seasonally, alongside monthly specials. Diners frequently recommend the roast rabbit, rabbit pasta, widow's soup, and beef olives (bragioli). The shop also sells home-produced honey, olive oil, and jams. It gets quite busy, so booking online is recommended; parking in the vicinity can be difficult. Single dishes cost around €13–€28 (according to older sources). Open only for dinner on Mondays.
