I can't believe that after all these years of coming here I never wrote a review! Insane. Well…read morelucky for you, I was just here last night, having a drink at sunset and thought, hey have I written a review for one of my favorite places on the island? First of all, this place IS indeed difficult to get into. By the end of June it is reservations only for basically the entire day so call in advance so you can definitely get a seat. The place is a "chiringuito" but it's German style seating (the owner is German so that makes sense) so if you have a small group you may have to share a large table with another group. No problem. The entire point of the German style seating is you can talk to everyone! The food is great and it's really only a lunch place. People generally don't show up here to eat after like 6PM, but it stays packed until it closes after sundown. And what a sundown you get too! There are few places on earth where you can catch a sunset nicer than El Tiburon. As someone else mentioned, it's not a cheap place: it's located in the most popular part of Formentera (Ses Illetes) and regularly attracts celebrity clientele (Ruud Gullit was also there yesterday having lunch) which is why a reservations is quite necessary. If you don't have one, you can still order a drink at the walk up bar and then just sit on the beach and enjoy it. That's very much allowed too. DJ Lorenzo Al Dino is there spinning all the deep house and dance music you need on Wed and Saturdays and at sunset the place turns into a party on most evenings! It's a great vibe and a great time and one of the true Formentera staples. Get involved!

My husband and I were trying to find some good places to dine while we were in Ibiza, but we were there from Sat-Mon. And I don't know if you're familiar with Spain yet, but they pretty much shut everything down on Sundays & Mondays. Monday afternoon, we had just finished climbing the castle and looking out at the views. We walked into town and I remembered seeing the reviews for this gem of a restaurant. We walked in around 3:45pm on a Monday. I was sure they'd either be closed or closing, but to our surprise, they were open and very welcoming! We were the only people in there besides one person in the front on their computer. We sat in the back, outdoor space. It was lovely and peaceful, and we were so tired. The food came out immediately after we ordered and it had a stunning presentation, but the taste was even more stunning! I'm from NYC, we eat out a lot and we know good food. We're picky, new restaurants open and close every day in NYC. Mar a Vila should be in NYC!! Or at least they should open a location there or in Brooklyn. They definitely need to open more locations somewhere. This food is too good to be kept on such a tiny island, away from so many people! Well, at the end of our meal, Patricia, cleared our plates and then just let us sit. She never made us feel like we needed to leave. It was very nice and a great way to revive after a long, adventurous day. Patricia & Pablo, you have an amazing restaurant! I hope I can come back to Ibiza and experience it more.

He didn't speak complete english, but did his best. He was constantly up checking on us, refilling our glasses, and making sure we were enjoying our meal.

We arrived by catamaran from Ibiza, and as we walked up to the restaurant the water was unbelievably clear and blue. Just that view alone is worth the trip. The restaurant itself is a total vibe--right on the beach with lively music, chic and friendly people, and an atmosphere that felt very St. Tropez. The service was impeccable; at least three servers were always checking in on us, making us feel welcomed and taken care of. Food-wise, everything was outstanding. We ordered a spread too big to list, but highlights for me were: * Paella: hands down one of the best I've ever had. So rich, flavorful, and bursting with taste in every bite. * Carpaccio: so fresh we had to order another round. * Salted fish: perfectly prepared and incredibly satisfying. And of course, the cocktails were flowing--everyone in our group had 2-3 drinks and they were excellent. When the bill came, it split to about $157 per person, which, considering the quality, location, service, and vibe, felt well worth it. I'm honestly surprised this place isn't rated higher because for me it's a solid 5/5. Yes, the prices are steep, but you're paying for a seasonal spot in one of the most beautiful locations imaginable. Between the beachside views, the chic vibe, the attentive service, and the incredible food, it's absolutely worth it. I can't wait to come back here again--this will definitely be a repeat stop every time I'm in Ibiza/Formentera.
