Restaurant Reviews in Mallorca

With the promise of a new, fresh dining experience, Miceli restaurant in the backwater village of Selva seemed an opportunity not to be missed. Having heard about the restaurant during my visit to Selva to make Panades during Easter weekend I thought it was worth a return trip to discover what all the fuss was about.

Lured in by their regular postings of delicious local produce on their Twitter account - I recently managed to pop in to Es Rebost in Palma centre to see if they are as good on-plate as online!

Nestled in the foothills of north-west Mallorca sits the majestic Son Brull Hotel & Spa. Once a monastery, this imposing building has been beautifully restored and then modernised to create the classic old-meets-new interior - we were immediately impressed... You enter the hotel through the most enormous glass door, just opening it brought a smile to our faces with its sheer grandueur and weight; and continue into the inner courtyard where the horses were once kept.

Recent recipient of a Tripadvisor Certificate of Excellence 2015, for receiving consistently great reviews Ambrosia is well worth a visit.

Whether you want to immerse yourself in traditional Mallorcan culture, you are looking to do a food shop or even seeking a casual spot to enjoy lunch, Mercat de l’Olivar is your one-stop-shop.

Last week, I went to tapas heaven and you’ll be pleased to hear you can find it nestled in the heart of Cala d’Or.

Having got used to Mallorca’s laid back lifestyle, the Frenchman and I have become accustomed to dressing in our more casual attire of shorts and flip flops for most occasions. But when you have dinner booked at one of the most prestigious restaurants on the island, you realise that it’s time to seek out the smarter selection of clothes in the wardrobe. We were to going to be dining at Tristan, a Michelin starred restaurant in Puerto Portals, Majorca - the most glamorous restaurant in what is regarded as the most glamorous marina on Mallorca.

Stepping into Restaurante Bugambilia is stepping into a love story. In 1978 a Danish couple, having fallen in love with the island, bought a house in the area of Cala Major and came to know the restaurant owner, Julio.

Ca’s Xorc Boutique Hotel & Restaurant ticks all the boxes for a gourmet dining experience in Mallorca’s spectacular Serra de Tramuntana mountain range. The combination of Mediterranean cuisine using locally sourced produce and epic mountain views is perfect, what more could you possibly ask for?

For laid back lunch times and easy dinners with a beach view head to El Bistro on Puerto Pollenca’s waterfront strip.

Set just down a side road off the busy square of restaurants in central Puerto Pollensa, Neptuno will catch your eye with its deep blue walls and life buoy decorations, it’ll keep your attention with its special boards and tapas deals and by the time you’ve read those a friendly waiter will have drawn you in and found you a table.

La Terrazza is the absolute gem of Alcanada’s eateries, just a five minute drive away from busy Port D’Alcudia, hidden from the road by brush and trees and situated on a little point jutting into the sea, this restaurant feels like a little secluded spot of luxury.

Having only opened in 2017, Soy Restaurant is one of the latest additions to the resort's gastronomic portfolio, already known for serving up some of the best Asian food in town. 

Casa Font i Roig is one of the many historical dwellings that have been converted into small boutique establishments in Mallorca. Many of these places have top-notch restaurants and, in the summer months, they often offer themed evenings like BBQ or Tapas Nights. So, on a warm summers evening, we went along to try Casa Font i Roig’s Friday night BBQ bonanza.

Situated at the very bottom of the 365 Calvari steps in with a massive outdoor seating area La Scalinata is a people watchers paradise.

If you’re looking for a restaurant that stands out from the crowd look no further than La Botigueta & Sushi in the centre of Pollenca.
