Grey Hound Bar & Restaurant — Restaurant in Mosta

Bidnija is a small hamlet just off the outskirts of Mosta and it is known to be quaint and quiet, with a small chapel, a general convenience store and the only catering establishment known as The Greyhound. This bar and restaurant offers mostly traditional Maltese fare and we went on a Wednesday night for rabbit.

We had a traditional Maltese platter with bigilla, fried Maltese pork sausage, beans, sun dried tomatoes, olives, pickled onions water biscuits and sourdough bread. Snails were also on the starters list and we sampled those too. Very nice on all counts.

The fried rabbit was actually very good and tender - I suspect that it had been marinated for a while, since it was so tender. The accompanying sauce was good and the fries were just right.

It is quite a small place so we had no issues with noise and shouting to be heard. On the other hand it was also too quiet, if you know what I mean.

Other than that we had a really nice meal and the price was very standard....

Went around 2 years ago, was brilliant, good portions, good food, good atmosphere, went yesterday, starters lacklustre and portions greatly reduced, people who took ribeye (which was supposedly 350g) recieved a 250g max steak, both of which weren't cooked as was requested, mixed platter of rabbit and horse meat was small in size and taste was lacking. Sauces were not up to par as before. Lamb shank was decent but very small in size. Place was full of patreons, overbooked and very noisy (watch stating that place was above 90db). Seating is very cramped. The day after, many of us in the group had gastric issues. Would not recommend, will never...
