About Maha East

Shane Delia’s Chapel Street outpost delivers punchy Maltese and Middle Eastern feasts wrapped in mood lighting and effortless hospitality. It is a snug Windsor dining room built for shared tables, where seasoned regulars gather over velvety hummus, tuna crudo, and slow-cooked lamb shoulder that slips clean off the bone. Floor staff handle gluten-free needs, vegan diners, and milestone gatherings without breaking stride. An unpretentious sommelier steers wine pairings and welcomes BYO bottles, while the kitchen wraps things up with a crisp, nutty baklava tiramisu.

  • Maltese & Middle Eastern Feasts: Shared multi-course feasts spotlighting dishes like tuna crudo, slow-cooked lamb, and house-made baklava tiramisu.
  • Sommelier Guidance & BYO: On-floor sommelier service providing hands-on pairing advice alongside an accommodating BYO approach.
  • Dietary Flexibility: Seamless kitchen accommodations for vegan, pescatarian, and strict allergy dining during milestone occasions.
