Minister Ian Borg Presented The Prestigious MICHELIN Guide 2025

Deputy Prime Minister Ian Borg presented this year’s Michelin awards 2025, and emphasised that these prestigious awards not only reflect the dedication of the hospitality sector but also align with the Government’s vision for the future, where Malta’s cuisine showcases the nation’s heritage, passion, and excellence.

ION Harbour by Simon Rogan retained its distinguished Two MICHELIN Stars, maintaining its position as Malta’s highest-rated restaurant.

Additionally, six restaurants were awarded One MICHELIN Star, with Le GV earning its first star in 2025. The other recipients included De Mondion, Rosamì, Under Grain, Noni, and Fernando Gastrotheque, all of which maintained their status.

In the Bib Gourmand category, five restaurants were celebrated, and 31 establishments were recognised as MICHELIN Recommended, including three new additions: La Pira, Risette, and The Seafood Grill Market.

Dr Charles Mangion, Chairman of the Malta Tourism Authority, reflected on Malta’s rapid culinary ascent during the last four years, noting that, “In 2020, our nation was home to just three Michelin-starred restaurants. Today, that number has more than doubled, a testament to the unwavering commitment of our chefs and restaurateurs who push the boundaries of culinary artistry.”
