Maltese Folklore Night Tour incl. food and drinks

Excellent

Lovely evening with plenty of food drink and dance only would say maybe we did not really have a guided tour of area in the night it was just picked up and seemed a little unorganised when dropped off to what was happening regarding where we ate

It was a good evening, food in a long time family restsurant was lovely, there was plenty to drink and the folklore dancing was interesting to watch.

A great night out

A very warm welcome as we arrived. Belinda was amazing! We had the taster menu. There was plenty of food with several Maltese favourites to choose from. The traditional Maltese dancers were lovely to see, and after the show ended, the public was invited to get up on the dance floor. There was a lovely atmosphere here, and it seemed that absolutely everyone was enjoying themselves. It ended too soon. We would love to have been able to stay a while longer.

Horrible service and disappointing dance show

This dinner show night at Ta’ Marija restaurant was the absolute worst! The dance show was very repetitive; all the music sounded the same, all the dances looked the same. The dancers didn’t even bother to change the outfits. In 5 dances out of 6 they wore the same white dresses. They promised that they would raise the platform high, so that everyone in the restaurant could see the dances well, but they only raised it during the first dance. We have seen many better shows, where they actually put some effort in the performances. This one was a disappointment. The service was very poor and waiters were terrible. We ordered tomato ravioli instead of mushroom ravioli due to our mushroom allergy. All the other tables received their first courses, we didn’t after waiting for almost an hour. Even the neighbouring table received their tomato raviolis. Then they started bringing in the second courses to every table, including ours. That’s when we said we haven’t even received the raviolis yet. Then they noticed their mistake and brought us the raviolis instead. But it was the mushroom version. After reminding them again that we asked for tomato version due to our allergy, we finally received the tomato ravioli. When we received our second courses, the horse dish tasted awful. For desserts we received 2 pieces of sweets, everyone in the neighbouring tables received 4 pieces. There was a hostess walking around from table to table to chat with customers about how their evening was going and explaining about their show and the dinner in the beginning of the evening. When she came to our table she didn’t explain anything, but instead told us she would come back soon to do it. She never came back to us, but toured all the other tables. After dinner there was an organized transportation from the restaurant to the hotel. First we were directed to sit inside a certain minibus. Then the driver realized that there are too many people and the two of us were rushed out of the bus to the end of the street to another bus. This other bus was empty and the driver told us that it is not going where we are going to, but maybe he can make a detour for us, but that they won’t be leaving for at least another half an hour. The first bus would have left right away. Then the driver of the first bus came to the second bus and said that now there is room in the first bus and we were rushed right back to the first bus. Unbelievable to make us run around like that. As if the evening in this restaurant hadn’t been awful enough already. We do not recommend this Ta’ Marija restaurant or their dance show to anyone. Stay away from their lousy service!
