After spending the day exploring the city and port of Sóller, we stumbled upon El Sabor, and it was…read moreone of our favorite meals of the entire trip!
We ordered a bunch of dishes since we hadn't eaten all day and I'm glad we did. My favorite by far was their gambas. Sizzling and garlicky, good quality shrimp, it's one of those dishes that I could've eaten multiple orders of. The meatballs were tasty and the sauce I scooped up with a bunch of bread, didn't leave anything left on the plate. The croquettes were good but my favorite. The fried goat cheese was surprisingly good as well. The bread with tomato bread was nice little appetizer.
We came for lunch and they only sit people in the outdoor dining area and not inside. We got there at a good time because after we sat down, the tables filled up and they were telling people it was an hour wait. We overheard them taking dinner reservations and they were already booking out 3 days in advance. So if you plan on coming for dinner, best to call ahead and make your reservations way in advance.
Overall, if I was visiting Sóller again this would be a stop I'd make over and over again. In an area where things look really touristy and overpriced, El Sabor felt like the best choice we could've made that day and glad we did.
