Every time we come back to Formentera we always visit this restaurant for the exceptional Paella, sangria and crema catalana (the best in the whole world!) This year, we went there more times because we really felt special by staying there and had the chance to try many dishes on the menu and everything was SUBLIME! The prices respect the quality and are very honest, for the service, ambience and cure of all the details we'd pay also more. The menu is very selective and particular and this makes this restaurant even more special because they can prepare every plate with special attention. We already miss also the two very kind owners that made everything so special. We can not wait to come back and see them again. Congratulations guys and now enjoy the much deserved time off! Till next year!

An absolutely beautiful view. The paella was exquisite. And of course the sangria too that has to go with it. :) would definitely recommend this place and comeback myself too.

Such a cute well kept place that has some character and feels different from the rest. The menu is small (which for me is a plus) and the food is good. The fried calamari and shrimp were super fresh and tasty, best had so far. Nice atmosphere and staff. Thumbs up
