Some restaurants serve great food. Others create an unforgettable experience. And then, there’s Peppino’s, a St. Julian’s institution that’s been wowing diners for over 20 years. More than just a place to eat, Peppino’s offers a feast for the senses—breathtaking views, impeccable service, and a menu brimming with flavour.
A View That Steals the Show
Picture this: the sun setting over St. Julian’s Bay, a golden glow reflecting off the water as you sip a perfectly chilled glass of their house wine. That was my evening at Peppino’s; let me tell you, it was pure magic.
The restaurant spans three cosy floors, each offering its own charm, but the real star is the top-floor lounge. With its wide windows and panoramic views, it’s the ultimate spot to unwind, soak in the scenery, and let the world slow down for a little while.
Starting on a Delicious Note
I knew we were in for something special when the starters hit the table. I went for the steamed mussels in wine and garlic, and let me tell you—each bite was an explosion of rich, briny, garlicky goodness. My dining partner opted for the crispy battered calamari, which had just the right amount of crunch and was served in generous portions (always a plus!).
This is what makes Peppino’s special—you get incredible quality without skimping on quantity.
Mains That Wow
Deciding on a main course at Peppino’s feels like an adventure on its own. After much deliberation, I went with the steak served with roasted vine tomatoes, wild rocket, and thinly sliced potatoes. Cooked to absolute perfection, the medium-rare steak melted in my mouth, while the rich pepper sauce tied everything together beautifully.
On the other hand, my companion couldn’t get enough of their baked Caprese chicken—a tender, Italian-seasoned chicken breast topped with oven-roasted tomatoes and gooey melted mozzarella, served alongside creamy mashed potatoes.
The verdict? Comfort food with a gourmet twist.
More Than Just the Food
Peppino’s doesn’t just get it right with food—their attention to detail and impeccable service truly elevates the experience. The staff made us feel at home from the moment we walked in. They took the time to recommend dishes, keep our wine glasses full, and ensure every bite was perfect.
