Ta' Kenuna
International restaurant · Gozo, Malta
Perched on Archbishop Saver Cassar Street in Nadur, Ta' Kenuna is a hidden gem celebrated by visitors for its tranquil charm and elevated vistas. The restaurant’s unique setting blends history with natural beauty, offering a serene escape where guests can unwind while enjoying the sweeping views of Gozo. As Theresa St. John put it, "Wonderful place with amazing views of the island. The walk there was delightful, gardens well-kept and plants are nemed and marked. The tower, used during WWII, is now holding telecommunications equipment."
The distinctive allure of Ta' Kenuna lies in its intimate botanical garden, where native plants are thoughtfully labelled, creating a peaceful retreat for diners. This quiet haven, once a strategic watchtower during WWII, now provides a picturesque backdrop for a leisurely meal. The restaurant’s proximity to Ta’ Kenuna (Regional), just 18 metres away, adds to its appeal as a destination for those seeking a quiet corner of Malta.
While the restaurant’s culinary offerings remain a draw, it is the combination of history, nature, and panoramic views that truly sets Ta' Kenuna apart. Visitors often linger here to soak in the atmosphere, making it a must-visit spot for those exploring Gozo’s quieter side.

"Really nice small botanical garden situated on the site where enemies could be sighted and signal fire's lit in olden times. Great views of Gozo from it's elevated position. Unfortunately we did not get to see the garden in full bloom due to the time of year we visited"

"The tower was used during WWII, but today holds telecommunications equipment. It is surrounded by a botanical garden that is filled with native plants, each with a nametag. The views from the gardens are spectacular. Come to Nadur, Gozo to enjoy this secret garden and photographers Nirvana."
