The Villa Bologna Restaurant

The Villa Bologna Restaurant in Attard is steeped in history, architecture, and nobility. The restaurant has splashes of colour everywhere with no detail spared to give diners an uplifting experience. The Villa Bologna restaurant is situated in some rooms off the garden of a renowned 18th century country house and the outdoor seating is in part of the garden. Its walls, with their limestone golden hues, are a delight in themselves, while the colourful plates give the whole scene a vivacious touch. The place is vibrant but never noisy and the cocktail bar is small, intimate, and comfortable with a vast selection of drinks and cocktails.

Everything at the Bologna is tastefully done and the fare is good on the eye but more so on the taste. The whole dining experience matches the interesting – and beautifully varied – history of the villa. Food, which is distinctly Italian with fresh seasonal ingredients used throughout, is delightfully cooked, served and plated. The beef carpaccio, the Villa Bologna tagliatelle (with pork and beef ragù), the vermicelli pasta with tartufo sauce, and the beef tagliata are the star picks of the menu. The fish, sourced locally, is cooked just enough to bring out its best flavour. Finish off with their artisanal ice cream, especially the coconut one which has a slightly crunchy texture. Step into history at the Villa Bologna and feel at ease in tasty comfort.
