For a date night booking, start with Brezza for rooftop Muscat Bay setting, Essenza for elegant Italian dining room, Sense on the Edge for a terrace 293 metres above Zighy Bay and Anzo for Asian cocktails and sake. Every restaurant shown here has enough editorial research to earn its place; the wider directory is kept separate.
