Valletta Port - Authentic Italian cuisine

We visited this place for appetizers and we enjoyed every bite of it. Their salad with their sumac lemon dressing hit the spot partnered with the grilled octopus and their mashed potatoes. It was so good. The service was amazing. It just takes time though to get someone see us and get us a seat even though there’s no one in the restaurant. The place is dimmed and very cozy. Feels like very intimate and really nice to dine in and enjoy dinner with friends and families. They offer and outdoor and indoor seating.

Large restaurant with a nice atmosphere. We were part of a large group. Everyone enjoyed their meal although mine in particular wasn’t too great. I ordered the MEDITERRANEAN FLAME BRANZINO Grilled branzino topped with smoky fire-roasted tomato and pepper sauce, served over green potato puree with herbs and pistachios. It was cold and the skin was left on which was mush. Considering that this is supposed to be one of the CHEF'S SIGNATURE DISHES I was expecting better. Would recommend the restaurant tho as all the other food turned out good.

Wow, everything we ate was amazing! We're big foodies and have been to everything from hole in the wall to Michelin starred, and are picky about which places we'd actually go back to, and Valletta Port definitely makes the cut. We had the dip sampler, the halloumi, Istanbul salad, and the hunkar begendi. The dip sampler and hunkar begendi were our favorites, but it was pretty hard to decide! I like baba ghanoush but sometimes find it a bit tart, but it wasn't at all but full of rich eggplant flavor. All the dips were very impressive

This restaurant completely surprised me with how incredible the food was! My son and I went for my birthday, and we ended up spending two hours talking and savoring every bite. Everything we ordered stood out as some of the best food we’ve had in Alexandria. I really want this place to stay! If I had one small note, it’s about the ambiance inside—it felt a little dark /cold. The outdoor tent had a livelier vibe with playful design touches and large flickering candles. The music (a mix of jazz, Middle Eastern tunes, and even Pink Martini) was fantastic, and I found myself wishing the atmosphere matched that energy. But if you’re an ambiance person like me, don’t let it stop you—RUN, don’t walk, to eat here. Honestly, just some colorful glass candle holders and a few lights in the space, li

Was happy to pay for my meal but honestly will never mention this place to anyone or want to come back. My spouse & I had the egg omelette & menemen. We also order a cappuccino & a Turkish Coffee. We were clearly the first customers of the day. All of the dinnerware was gorgeous but the glamour ends there, food was pretty mediocre. I eat Mediterranean food pretty often & this place falls short of conveying the amazing flavors from the Mediterranean. The tea at the end of our meal was also not great. Good enough to eat, not good enough to choose again.
