We walked into a totally empty restaurant at 7pm which got us sort of worried. We talked ourselves…read moreinto thinking maybe since we're the only non-European tourists around we're the only ones in need of eating at this "early" hour. Sure enough, people trickled in later and the place was pretty packed by the time we left. The food was great here! For appetizers we had mussels in tomato sauce and special house salad, and for entrees lightly battered cod and Mallorcan style gilt-head fish. The mussels and fish were especially awesome. Service was lovely at first but once the restaurant filled up with people our server was hard to get a hold of. He seemed kind of overwhelmed. We skipped dessert because we had a feeling it would be a long wait. Even with not-so-perfect service I had a good time and would recommend it.

The story is heartbreaking, but Bar Es Roquessar may help you forget this sad tale of woe, especially after ordering a glass of cava, some tapas or if you are feeling ambitious, an order of their suckling pig. Great setting alongside delicious food and desserts. Make a reservation as it's small and popular. (It's a restaurant catering to tourists but of options Valldemossa, it's one of the only foodie looking decent options outside of Es Taller.) We were turned away our first night, but were determined and returned next night early and had no problem getting a table.

The mojito was refreshing. The restaurant is located in the plaza where the monastery and Chopin museum are located. Lots of tables outside for dining. Very pleasant.

Beautiful, outdoor seating area with high tops to check out the local sights & sounds while dining. Service was very friendly So many good food options but the chicken cordon bleu stuffed with ham & cheese was to die for.

So thankful Ca'n Toni was able to sneak us in the other night. Recommended if you're in the area.

Just wow. We stayed at the Hostatgeria del Santuari de Cura on a high hill of Mallorca up the Puig…read morede Randa mountain. The panoramic views of the Bay of Palma were spectacular and breathtaking. The front desk gentleman personally walked us to our corner room with the best view and told us that the restaurant downstairs was already booked for the evening and that the Michelin star Irene Gutierrez Huamani chef from Peru was the chef tonight. Since we were located on the top of hill, there was absolutely nothing around unless we chose to trek back down the hill for food, so we ventured downstairs and tried our luck. We showed up at 715pm right about when they opened. The lady said people usually book a week in advance but that they were able to squeeze us in and would need the table back in about an hour. We felt so happy and accomplished that we were able to try out this place. Their house bread had olives encrusted in it (2,20/person). There was a tasting menu for 79,00/person but we opted a la carte and basically ordered almost what was on the tasting menu and more. We ordered tacos secreto iberico (16,00/2 tacos so you have to order multiples if you have more than 2 people per party), ceviche exotico salmon (21,00), papa rellena confit (15,00/for 2), rabo de buey (oxtail) (26,00), bacalao retinado (cod) (27,00), and the tagliatelle langostin (prawn) (26,00). Had the copa Mallorca beer. Everything was absolutely amazing except the tagliatelle, which was a bit salty. Highly recommend the oxtail, tacos, ceviche and potatoes. We finished off with a drink called orujo which I felt was very strong. Everything was like a fairytale and perfect up to this point. When it was time for us to finish up, the check took forever to arrive and when it did, no one ever came by for us to close out the check so we could leave. Just paying took almost an hour. Of course, we cherished the moment and people watched. Many were dressed with their A game. But still, we would've liked to leave earlier, especially since they mentioned they needed the table back. We ended up doing almost a 2.5 hours meal even though the food came out quickly. I went back upstairs to our room and looked down from our balcony at guests dining and enjoying their meal. The restaurant closed at 10p but I could hear the kitchen still cleaning, finally ending their night at 1am. What an amazing experience. Absolutely recommend if you're in the area.

If you want to enjoy the sunset, make sure to get reservations in advance. The team of waiters are super attentive yet not obnoxious. Also, they had an amazingly priced lunch menu that included appetizer, entree and dessert for $22 euros. I mean, it is like Miami Spice but Spaniard style. Talk about amazing bread; it was baked with olives inside ! and of course, more olives on the side with a aioli which was perfect to pair my wine. From their lunch menu, I went with a basil and tomato salad; delish! Although, I am not a big fan of Cod fish, the one of their menu was super soft and not too strong on flavor. For dessert, I had the most perfect piece of heaven. A mixed of Merengue, soft cake and Ice Cream... ohh yeahh, what a perfect treat!

One of the ports on our cruise was Palma de Mallorca. This was one of my favorite spots since it…read morewas easy to access from the cruise port. I hopped on one of the City Sightseeing buses and was instantly transported to the Cathedral of Santa Maria and the Royal Palace. I walked around this stop because of the many shops and Spanish architecture. This is a ritzy area with the high end shops and there is a lot to see. Once I was done, I got back on the bus to see the rest of the tour stops. I opted to head back to the cruise ship but the hop-on-hop-off bus is easily one of the best ways to get around town with an audio guide. I picked up a small souvenir in one of the local gift shops. I did not get to go to the beach, but I was not visiting for that. I can see why Mallorca is one of the popular places to visit in Europe. It's picturesque and friendly to tourists.

We were not even supposed to visit this one but Valletta, Malta was replaced with Palma de Mallorca. I was REALLY looking forward to visiting Malta, but was intrigued by Mallorca. We sort of stayed within city limits. I was with my Mom and cousin and we all like to shop. Unfortunately, we did not have the time to venture out to beaches and more exotic sites. But we all bought shoes, clothes, etc. so we were happy. MCD hooked it up with restrooms and quality WIFI!! Hey, not every port has these luxuries so readily available. The employees in the stores we shopped in were so helpful. We had questions about the area and they were all awesome. All in all, this city was very nice. However, I just expected a little more of an island vibe, but again, we did not venture out too far. If you find yourself coming to Palma de Mallorca, it is worth your while!!!

We were a family of 12 walking around Palma looking for a place to eat, and unfortunately this…read moreturned into one of the worst dining experiences we've had. When we first arrived, we asked for a table for 12, and were told it wasn't possible--even though the restaurant was half empty. We even offered to split into two tables of 6, but were still turned away. We tried again by having our Spanish speaker ask separately, and a different waiter agreed to seat the group. As soon as we all walked in and sat down, the same staff member who had denied us became visibly upset and, in a very sassy tone, said "those are the same 12." She then told us we had to sit in the back if we wanted to stay together, so we moved. Moments later, she changed her mind again, insisting that because we had a baby, part of the group would still need to sit separately. At that point, it was clear they simply didn't want our service, no matter how flexible we tried to be. After being shuffled around and treated so rudely, we decided to leave. Extremely disappointing and, frankly, felt discriminatory. Families and larger groups should be aware before coming here.
