Converted from 17th-century boathouses, the Harbour Club has a superb terrace and wonderful harbour views. With excellent vistas across to the Three Cities, it's one of Valletta's best spots for a leisurely meal. Asian influences underpin a largely Mediterranean menu and service is excellent. Booking ahead is recommended, but note seating will be inside if it is a windy day.
