Zero Sei Trattoria Romana

Food glorious food! Isn’t it a good enough reason in itself for which one travels? Foodies know that Italian cuisine can never get it wrong. Yet, it would be a true pity to only be able to enjoy the appetizing fresh meals from the Italian kitchen only when visiting the country. But that’s not even a concern! While perhaps not all roads lead to Rome, there are a few on the island which do thanks to Zero Sei Trattoria Romana!

What to expect at Zero Sei?

Mission Zero Sei is not just a restaurant, it is a slice of Rome in the heart of Valletta. Rome is culture, history and art, but also food, love and passion, a passion that its inhabitants pour into every aspect of life. This passion also characterizes our activity, from welcoming customers to involve them in a millennial culinary tradition. We want to offer our guests not only a good dinner, but an experience, made of gestures, hospitality, tastes and flavors. Fresh ingredients, selected for you every day by careful hands, and a wine cellar with over two hundred wines will be matched with wisdom to give you a real Roman dinner.

What does Zero Sei offer?

We only offer the best dishes, recipes and typical products that have made Roman cuisine famous all over the world. We select and guarantee only the best raw materials, from cheeses to first courses, from meats to vegetables. We try to use seasoned products in order to offer only top-quality ingredients. We also pay special attention to the selection of wines produced in the best Italian vineyards from north to south, renowned in the world. Ours is not an innovative cuisine - we prepare plates of a strong secular history in hope of sharing with you a part of our Rome.

How did Rome find Valletta?

The company Zero Sei Trattoria Romana was born from the idea of offering great classics of the Roman tradition in Malta. Bring Amatriciana, Carbonara, Cacio e Pepe to this wonderful island where fish is present in all the restaurants has been a great challenge for us. Every day we cook the original recipes of a tradition passed down from generation to generation, based on a source of rural and peasant origin. The Roman cuisine flavors are unmistakable: strong, and special flavours conceived of raw materials from the villages of the region. Now we can say that we were the first to have brought the Roman cuisine to Malta.

We are a family business company, arrived in Malta in 2013. We started with Zero Sei , the first Roman trattoria in Malta. We were to stay a couple of years and then return to Rome. We wanted to show our children that even as adults you can start all over again and well! After two years of Zero Sei, we were working every day 12/13 hours a day , 7/7 a week ,we decided that Malta would be our new home. So we opened Sotto pizzeria, no one knew that we actually made Pinsa Romana. We said it after 4 years that our "pizza" was Pinsa Romana...But we had immediate success.

Next we opened in Gzira. in Marsaskala, in Malta Airport, and finally in St Julian’s. We still can’t believe all that we are doing. We continue to work 100 hours a week, together with our children and our closest employees, who will become our partners in the future. Yes you got it right, they will become our partners, we have already done that with two other kids who work with us. Of course, to become our partners you don't have to look at your watch. If you want to have what you have never had, you have to do what you have never done!!!
