In-laws Top 5 from two fantastic visits in 2017 :)

No;1 Stay

No;2 Cellar la parra

No;3 Number 31

No 4 Osteria

No 5 The Sea Bar
 
Based on 2 visits, 2 of us.
1. Stay. Consistent high quality.
2. Na Ruixa. Good Spanish food, good steak and fish.
3. La Llonja. Good food, great location.
4. Coral. Very welcoming family restaurant.

We did not go elsewhere, as we were really satisfied with these 4.
Visiting in April, October, we realised how hard people work. Everyone looked tired by October, but are still unfailingly welcoming, efficient and still smiling. Definitely one of the positives of PP.
 
Still trying to decide on mine, just counted up and including Alcudia and the town we ate in 33 restaurants over our 3 trips this year, so very difficult to decide on the top 5!!
 
Top 5 Eateries from out Trip

Hard to choose, as usual, due to large numbers of good establishments to pick from, but here goes:-

1. IRU - Great Service and food, Shellfish ti die for

2. NA RUIXA - Brilliant Grilled Sole, huge Portions, attentive service - wish we had gone there years ago - hope we get the chance to go again!

3. PESCADOR - Again great service, and Sea Bream was delicious.

4. HIBISCUS - as always, very welcoming - good and varied choice of Tapas, particularly Seafood Options - Baby Clams in Lemon and Olive Oil was superb.

5. PATIO 49 - Novel approach to pricing, but still good value for money, and something to suit everyone.

Oh dear, just occurred to me that I only ate seafood the whole trip - hope I'm not turning veggie!!! Although, where better to go for quality seafood than PP?

Here's hoping that I will get to write this in future.

All those restaurant owners will hoping that you'll have no problems getting apartments for your future trips ;)

Good luck with picking your top 5.
 
Restaurants

A lovely week in a stunningly situated apartment!

1...Stay, still our favourite, 2 evening meals and a lunch. We love the portion sizes , not too huge, and always delicious and well presented.
2...Tapas y punta, new to us, but interesting Tapas, and pleasant service. We'd definitively go again.
3...Maxims, we worried when we realised they were shutting for the season that night, but we had an excellent meal, and good service.
4...Na ruixa, yet another first, great atmosphere, and for the most part lovely food. I may have made poor choices, as both my starter and main course were gargantuan.
5...Iru, again, excellent lunchtime Tapas.

We'd like to nominate the traditional meal in cooked by me and a friend, seventies retro this year! 🤣😊

On a different note, Marfran ,through whom we booked are very anxious about the whole renting thing. They've removed their rentals, and say they will keep us posted for next year, fingers crossed. All restaurants were so full all week, that it's worrying to think of the consequences for such businesses next year.
 
Our favourites after a number of visits this year:

1. Ca'n Josep I'm afraid is just too good to relegate!!!

2. Cellar La Parra

3. Marina Brasserie

4. Portofino

5. Na Ruixa
 
1 Brisa Marina great food and service plus, a great meal on our 47th Wedding anniversary ( grilled lobster )
2 No 31 for a new restaurant they have nailed it Quality service and ambiance.
3 Los faroles a fantastic fish restaurant good service friendly staff.
4 El Posito good food and service plus good atmosphere
5 La Vall lovely resturant good food but lacks atmosphere in the evenings as few people go there which is a pity.

Top 5 after our many visits:
1. Can Cuarrassa - shame not open all year as it used to be.
2. IRU - Excellent food and friendly service.
3. Centric - service suffers in high season but otherwise excellent and 'different'
4. Ambrosia - good place to eat late when a burger is what you need - usually full of Spanish as well.
5. Stay - Service and view great but feel the menu needs an update.
 
Our top 5 this year after a few visits:

1. El Posito........consistently good food and good atmosphere
2. La Cabana......great tapas and friendly service
3. Cellar la Parra.....lovely food and friendly service
4. Liberty Kitchen.....again consistently good food
5. Can Josep......first visit and sure it won't be our last

Special mention for lunches at Dolc Sa Pobla, Imperial and La Vall.....all excellent

Also must mention Mare Nostrum in Sa Pobla......had two excellent meals there and would definitely return on next visit.

Until the next time............😉
 
After many visits this year I am going with:

1 Stay, never had a bad meal there.
2 Can Josep, excellent quality food with reasonably priced wine and friendly service.
3 No 31, what a great addition to the Port this is. Not a big menu but everything is very good as is the service.
4 Stefano, not in the main part of town but consistently good food and friendly service.
5 El Posito, well known on this forum. Dropped down my ranking a bit this year - had a couple of experiences when items we wanted from the menu were not available. Effectively we were told what we could have. It is the way the owner operates and it is part of his style! I still like him and his restaurant and will return.
 
Agree about Stefanos- always go there in the summer when we are staying in the countryside :)
 
Yes, we love can josep, wonderful food and welcome, but sadly we didn't make it there this year.....a bit far out. Last year we were offered jobs for a wedding reception ������
