This weekend, make a little more time for the people who matter. Gather around the table, share a meal, and create some new memories together at Maldini’s by the river.

When you can’t decide… have a little bit of everything.
Inspired by our Mediterranean neighbours, our Mixed Souvlaki Plate brings together tender chicken and pork skewers, warm flat bread, feta quinoa salad, Euro chips and our garlic sauce.
A generous spread made for sharing, because across Mediterranean cultures, the best meals are the ones enjoyed around the table with good company.
