Another one bites the dust.

La Roda will be closing permanently at the end of the month .

That is such a shame - it was on our 'definitely to try list' for next year

Suppose it will turn into yet another Chinese/Indian/fast food place or worse.

 

[Luckyone]

So sorry to hear about this, such a busy place with locals and visitors.
Why do seemingly successful places move on or close, is it the lease conditions or what?

 

[Sparky]

It wasn't making enough money and the chef/owner has been offered a great job working at the Illa D'Or.

I am very sad to hear that, we have always enjoyed going there - it certainly wasn't lacking customers so as Sparky says, seems like they were not charging enough! We would happily pay a bit more for it to stay open!

Not much chance he'll do his homemade burgers at the Illa D'Or
It was very quiet when we visited them in September - but food was good & very good value.
It wasn't a place we felt we needed to visit every holiday but we'll definitely miss La Roda & it will also be a big loss to the Ruta del Tapeo.

That's really sad - it was one of our favourites - they were all so friendly. I know there are quite a few locals who will really miss it as they seemed to be in there every day - their MDD was the best value ever (to be honest we always said it was much too cheap….) He's a talented chef - lucky Illa d'Or!

Good news, La Roda will be open throughout the winter under new management .

 

[Sparky]

Have just found out that they will continue with La Ruta .

I believe the new owners will change the name to "La Vall" .

 

[CathB]

I believe the new owners will change the name to "La Vall" .

Was there another restaurant at one time with a similar name ( no I am not thinking of the icecreams )

 

[Sparky]

Before La Roda it was a Chinese called La Vila and i think before that it was La Vall or something like that.

 

[lollipop]

Yes originally that restaurant was called La Vall.

 

[Hamcas]

Really sorry to here of the demise of O'Lume and particularly sorry for Jaime. I spoke to him on Friday morning and he said it was closed permanently. I sincerely hope something turns up for him as it is a great loss to Puerto Pollensa.

 

[Sparky]

Yes it's very sad indeed. Hopefully Jaime will find somewhere else.

 

[PP76]

Very sorry to hear this, when we were last in O'Lume two weeks ago Jaime did say it had been very hard to make money this year.

 

[scouse mark]

we cant believe it

Yes it's very sad indeed. Hopefully Jaime will find somewhere else.

There twice in july ,it was quiet but amazing food and jamie is a fantastic host and a nice man.I hope things turn out well for him, a real shock.
