When we told the waiter, the essence of his response was that there was nothing wrong with the food, but with our taste. He didn't offer to make it right, in any way. We also sat with two empty bottles of water on the table for almost half the meal, with no water in any of our glasses because we drank it all. He never seemed to notice or ask us if we wanted more or to check in on our meal. Very disappointing. A waste of money and our precious vacation time.

The courtyard is a beautiful setting, picturesque in every way. The service was impeccable and the food was fantastic! There was a freshness to each dish and though I wanted to try everything from the menu, I went with the daily specials, first starting with the artichoke dish with foie gras and a poached egg, which was very rich, and having the 24-hour Lamb for my main. I also shared the prawn & avocado salad with my wife which was exceptional! This is a great little restaurant in the Sa Tuna area and a "Can't miss" if you're in the area!

Absolute delight! Best meal of our trip. Try the artichoke-- it's unreal! Very celiac friendly,…read moretoo. Thank you for a wonderful time

We then made 2 reservations and got to try a lot of the menu

There is indoor seating as well with quirky decorations everywhere. The price fix menu for lunch was 23E, including bread and water, 2 courses and dessert. I had a fig salad, salmon with rice, and cream Catalon....all beautifully presented and delicious. Reading another review someone mentioned the lack of multilingual service. I'm not sure why anyone would expect any server to speak several languages. I am traveling with my small dog, barely speak any Spanish, let alone Castilian Spanish, and I ordered food just fine and received excellent service! I highly recommend El Pati!!!

The menus were always of high quality, but over the years there was no developement to see, that the management of the hotel/restaurant was trying to improve the service so that international guests with minor spanish knowledge feel more welcome. After reading a comment from 2009 in another forum, the service even seems to have decreased in performance I will for sure visit this lovely place a fourth time, but will watch closely, if the critics may be right. But on a nice summer evening there seems to be no better place for a nice dinner in Catalunya
