# Best Special Occasion Restaurants in Mallorca > Special-occasion dinners in Mallorca: Voro's two-Michelin-star menu, Zaranda in Palma's old quarter, and La Fortaleza at Cap Rocat. - **Canonical URL:** https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/best-special-occasion-restaurants - **City:** Mallorca, Spain - **Published:** 2026-08-07 - **Author:** Justin Mota, Guidavera founder - **Reading time:** 16 min ## Introduction Mallorca's fine-dining scene is stacked with restaurants built for exactly the kind of night that calls for real ceremony: an anniversary, a proposal, a birthday that deserves more than a good meal. Voro, chef Álvaro Salazar's restaurant at the Cap Vermell Grand Hotel in Canyamel, is the only two-Michelin-star restaurant in the Balearic Islands. Restaurante Zaranda runs a tasting-menu dining room inside a former tannery in Palma's old quarter. And La Fortaleza seats just 30 guests inside the restored fortress of Cap Rocat, on the Bay of Palma. The island's estate hotels do a lot of the heavy lifting here. Andreu Genestra cooks his 'cuina de la terra' tasting menus inside a 14th-century manor at Zoëtry Mallorca near Llucmajor, Sa Clastra runs a single wind-themed tasting menu inside the walls of Castell Son Claret in Es Capdellà, and El Olivo serves dinner inside a 17th-century olive mill at Belmond La Residencia in Deià. Further out, Shima brings Nikkei cuisine to a terrace over the Bay of Pollença at Four Seasons Resort Mallorca at Formentor, and Es Balcó de Son Vida reopened in April 2026 on a hilltop above Palma with an entirely renovated dining room. Not every pick here needs a Michelin star to earn its place. Sa Torre serves a weekly-changing menu inside a centuries-old wine cellar on a family-run rural estate, Trobar in Cala Ratjada pairs a rotating cast of chef residencies with hand-made artist tableware across three floors, and Agapanto relaunched its beachfront terrace in Port de Sóller around a whole Sóller lobster course and regular live music. What ties this list together isn't a single style of cooking, it's rooms built for slowing down and marking an occasion properly. ## Key picks at a glance - **Best for a milestone tasting menu** — [Voro](https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/voro): The only two-Michelin-star restaurant in the Balearic Islands. - **Best for a romantic dinner in Palma's old quarter** — [Restaurante Zaranda](https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/restaurante-zaranda): A tasting menu served across several rooms inside a former tannery. - **Best for an intimate, small-room celebration** — [La Fortaleza](https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/la-fortaleza-hotel-cap-rocat): Just 30 seats inside a restored fortress on the Bay of Palma. - **Best for a countryside estate setting** — [Sa Torre](https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/sa-torre): A weekly-changing tasting menu inside a centuries-old wine cellar. - **Best for something different** — [Trobar](https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/trobar): A rotating cast of chef residencies served on hand-made artist tableware. - **Best for a beachfront celebration** — [Agapanto](https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/agapanto): A relaunched terrace built around a whole Sóller lobster course and live music. ## A guide to Special Occasion Restaurants in Mallorca ### Michelin Stars and Repsol Soles, what the ratings mean Michelin Stars are the Michelin Guide's own distinction for cooking quality, while Repsol Soles are the Spanish Guía Repsol's parallel rating system. A restaurant can hold either, both, or neither, and several restaurants on this list carry both marks alongside a Michelin Guide 'Selected' listing, which flags a restaurant Michelin considers worth a visit without awarding it a star. ### Tasting menus are the norm at this level Most fine-dining kitchens in Mallorca serve a fixed tasting menu rather than an à la carte, often a single sequence built around a theme, whether that's the sun's path through the day, the island's traditional winds, or a chef's own hometown. Expect a long evening, and confirm whether a wine pairing is offered alongside the food. ### Book ahead, and expect a card guarantee Small, high-demand dining rooms across the island increasingly ask for a credit card to hold a reservation, with a cancellation fee if you don't give enough notice. It's standard practice at this tier rather than something to be wary of, but it's worth reading the booking terms for each restaurant before you confirm. > "These are the tables built for the nights that call for real ceremony, not just a good meal." ## How we built this list This list draws on Guidavera's own ranking of Mallorca restaurants, built from each venue's own published menus, hours and booking policies, cross-checked against Michelin Guide and Guía Repsol listings where they exist, plus review-sentiment signal aggregated from platforms like TripAdvisor and TheFork. Restaurants were shortlisted for genuinely fitting a special-occasion evening, whether that's a Michelin-starred tasting menu or a beachfront terrace built for celebrations, and ranked using Guidavera's own scoring rather than a single outside source. ## The 13 best Special Occasion Restaurants, compared | # | Restaurant | Neighbourhood | Price | Distinction | Signature dish | |---|---|---|---|---|---| | 1 | [Voro](https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/voro) | Canyamel | €€€€ | Michelin 2-Star · Repsol 3 Soles | — | | 2 | [Restaurante Zaranda](https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/restaurante-zaranda) | Palma | €€€€ | Michelin 1-Star · Repsol 1 Sol | — | | 3 | [La Fortaleza](https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/la-fortaleza-hotel-cap-rocat) | Cala Blava | €€€€ | Michelin Selected · Repsol 2 Soles | — | | 4 | [Andreu Genestra](https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/andreu-genestra) | Llucmajor | €€€€ | Michelin 1-Star · Repsol 2 Soles | — | | 5 | [Sa Clastra](https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/sa-clastra) | Es Capdellà | €€€€ | Michelin 1-Star · Repsol 1 Sol | — | | 6 | [El Olivo](https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/el-olivo) | Deià | €€€€ | Michelin Selected · Repsol 2 Soles | — | | 7 | [Es Fum](https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/es-fum) | Costa d'en Blanes | €€€€ | Michelin 1-Star · Repsol 1 Sol | — | | 8 | [Can Simoneta Gastronòmic](https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/can-simoneta-gastronomic) | Canyamel | €€€€ | Michelin Selected · Repsol 1 Sol | — | | 9 | [Sa Torre](https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/sa-torre) | Ses Alqueries | €€€ | — | — | | 10 | [Shima](https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/shima) | Formentor | €€€€ | — | — | | 11 | [Es Balcó de Son Vida](https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/es-balco-de-son-vida) | Son Vida | €€€€ | — | — | | 12 | [Trobar](https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/trobar) | Es Pelats | €€€ | — | — | | 13 | [Agapanto](https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/agapanto) | Port de Sóller | €€€ | — | — | ## The 13 best Special Occasion Restaurants in Mallorca ### 1. Voro *The only two-Michelin-star restaurant in the Balearic Islands, with three Repsol Soles to match.* - **Neighbourhood:** Canyamel - **Address:** Cap Vermell Grand Hotel, Urbanización Atalaya de Canyamel, 07589 Canyamel, Capdepera, Spain - **Price:** €€€€ - **Distinction:** Michelin 2-Star · Repsol 3 Soles - **Website:** https://www.capvermellgrandhotel.com/en/restaurants/voro - **Full profile:** https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/voro Voro is chef Álvaro Salazar's restaurant inside the Cap Vermell Grand Hotel in Canyamel, the only two-Michelin-star restaurant anywhere in the Balearic Islands, and it holds three Repsol Soles too, Repsol's highest distinction. There's a single tasting menu, Devoro, built as a journey through the day, moving from Dawn through Zenith to Sunset across a long sequence of courses that touch Salazar's native Jaén, Mallorca and the Mediterranean. It's dinner only, and the restaurant is closed Saturday and Sunday, so this is a trip you plan around rather than a walk-in. Book through the Cap Vermell Grand Hotel well ahead; a night here is the kind of splurge you build a whole trip around. ### 2. Restaurante Zaranda *A Michelin-starred tasting-menu restaurant inside a former tannery in Palma's old quarter, with its own separate entrance from the Es Príncep hotel.* - **Neighbourhood:** Palma - **Address:** Hotel Es Princep, Carrer Bala Roja 1, 07001 Palma de Mallorca, Spain - **Price:** €€€€ - **Distinction:** Michelin 1-Star · Repsol 1 Sol - **Website:** https://zaranda.es - **Full profile:** https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/restaurante-zaranda Chef Fernando Pérez Arellano brought Zaranda to Mallorca after earning a Michelin star in Madrid and, later, two stars at Castell Son Claret. Today it lives inside the Es Príncep hotel in Palma's old town, with its own entrance and a dining room set over the remains of a former tannery. Dinner moves through several rooms rather than one table, with two tasting menus, 'A flor de piel' and 'Plena flor', both offered with a wine pairing. The mood is quiet and dim, built for a date or a celebration, and chef interaction is part of the experience. Guests must be 16 or older, and booking runs by phone, WhatsApp or email rather than an online system. ### 3. La Fortaleza *Dinner for just 30 inside a restored coastal fortress on the Bay of Palma, moving between a former mess hall and a rooftop pavilion by season.* - **Neighbourhood:** Cala Blava - **Address:** Ctra. d'Enderrocat, s/n, 07609 Cala Blava, Llucmajor, Spain - **Price:** €€€€ - **Distinction:** Michelin Selected · Repsol 2 Soles - **Website:** https://www.caprocat.com - **Full profile:** https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/la-fortaleza-hotel-cap-rocat La Fortaleza is chef Víctor García's restaurant inside Cap Rocat, a hotel carved into a restored fortress near Cala Blava on the Bay of Palma. The room seats only 30: two-person tables in what used to be the troops' mess hall through spring and autumn, and a rooftop pavilion with Mediterranean views in summer. Two menus run alongside each other, 'Un paseo por Mallorca', built on the island's traditional recipes like stuffed squid and 'variat', and the more seasonal 'El Producto'. It holds two Repsol Soles and a Michelin Guide listing. Expect smart casual dress after 7pm, no phones at the table, and a genuinely intimate, formal evening. Dinner only, Tuesday to Saturday, and booking ahead is essential given the room's size. **Order:** - undefined - undefined ### 4. Andreu Genestra *Andreu Genestra's 'cuina de la terra' tasting menus at a 14th-century manor estate, with an open kitchen and a Michelin Green Star for sustainability.* - **Neighbourhood:** Llucmajor - **Address:** Zoëtry Mallorca, Sa Torre estate, Llucmajor, 07609, Spain - **Price:** €€€€ - **Distinction:** Michelin 1-Star · Repsol 2 Soles - **Website:** https://andreugenestra.com/en - **Full profile:** https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/andreu-genestra Andreu Genestra calls his cooking 'cuina de la terra', cuisine of the land, and it runs through the Mediterranean, the garden and Mallorcan tradition, including native ingredients like carob and black pork that he's worked back into haute cuisine. The restaurant now sits inside Zoëtry Mallorca on the historic Sa Torre estate near Llucmajor, a 14th-century manor house with its own windmill and church. It holds a Michelin Star, a Michelin Green Star awarded in 2020, and two Repsol Soles. Three tasting menus run side by side: Mediterranean, the longer Mediterranean Extrem, and the vegetable-focused Mediterranean Verde. The kitchen is open to the room, so you watch the cooking happen. Dinner only, Wednesday to Sunday, with a smart dress code and a 48-hour cancellation policy. ### 5. Sa Clastra *A single tasting menu built around the winds of Mallorca, served inside the walled estate of Castell Son Claret.* - **Neighbourhood:** Es Capdellà - **Address:** Castell Son Claret, Carretera Es Capdellà–Galilea km 1.7, 07196 Es Capdellà, Spain - **Price:** €€€€ - **Distinction:** Michelin 1-Star · Repsol 1 Sol - **Website:** https://www.castellsonclaret.com/en - **Full profile:** https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/sa-clastra Sa Clastra sits inside Castell Son Claret, a restored estate in the Calvià hills, and runs one tasting menu, Viento y Memoria (Wind and Memory), built chapter by chapter around the winds that blow across the island, Tramuntana, Gregal, Mitjorn and more, each one tied to a piece of Mallorcan cuisine and chef Jordi Cantó's own childhood memories. Cantó took over the kitchen in 2021, after training at Nerua, DiverXo, Casa Marcial and Zaranda, and earned the restaurant its Michelin Star. You eat within the estate's walls, with a patio for warm-weather dining, and it's a formal, intimate room rather than a high-volume restaurant. Note the estate also runs a second, more casual restaurant, Olivera, so double-check you're booking the right one. Dinner only, Thursday to Saturday. **Order:** - undefined ### 6. El Olivo *A tasting menu inside a 17th-century olive mill at Belmond La Residencia, with a terrace over Deià and the Tramuntana.* - **Neighbourhood:** Deià - **Address:** Belmond La Residencia, Son Canals s/n, 07179 Deià, Spain - **Price:** €€€€ - **Distinction:** Michelin Selected · Repsol 2 Soles - **Website:** https://www.belmond.com/hotels/europe/mallorca/deia/belmond-la-residencia/dining - **Full profile:** https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/el-olivo El Olivo is chef Pablo Aranda's restaurant at Belmond La Residencia in Deià, set inside a 17th-century oil mill that still keeps its original Mallorcan tafona, the old olive press. In summer, weather permitting, service moves to the terrace for views over the village and the Tramuntana mountains. Aranda, from Granada, runs a tasting menu the Michelin Guide calls 'return-to-roots cuisine', Mediterranean at its base with Arabic influences and nods to Federico García Lorca's poetry. Michelin singles out the lamb loin, served with a black olive crust, toasted sheep's milk and artichokes. There's a vegetarian tasting menu on request, and the hotel describes candlelight setting the mood. It holds a Michelin Guide listing and two Repsol Soles. Non-resident bookings open 30 days ahead via SevenRooms. **Order:** - undefined ### 7. Es Fum *One Michelin Star at the St. Regis Mardavall, with a tasting menu built from ideas gathered across more than 40 countries.* - **Neighbourhood:** Costa d'en Blanes - **Address:** St. Regis Mardavall, Ctra. Palma-Andratx 19, 07181 Costa d'en Blanes, Spain - **Price:** €€€€ - **Distinction:** Michelin 1-Star · Repsol 1 Sol - **Website:** https://www.restaurant-esfum.com - **Full profile:** https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/es-fum Es Fum sits inside the St. Regis Mardavall resort at Costa d'en Blanes, above the Mediterranean coast just west of Palma, and holds one Michelin Star and one Repsol Sol. Chef Miguel Navarro, who trained under Martin Berasategui, runs three tasting menus: Origen, which collects the dishes that built the kitchen's reputation, including the Hamachi Es Fum and a creamy red prawn rice; Recorrido, which pulls the Mediterranean through influences from more than 40 countries across three chapters; and a vegetal menu. There's also an in-house cheese course and an artisanal chocolate trolley. Dinner only, Wednesday to Sunday, and the full tasting-menu experience runs about three hours, so plan the evening around it. Dress code is elegant, with long trousers and closed shoes for men. **Order:** - undefined - undefined ### 8. Can Simoneta Gastronòmic *A 'Mexiterranean' tasting menu fusing Mexican technique with Mallorcan produce, from a chef who spent four years as Andreu Genestra's head chef.* - **Neighbourhood:** Canyamel - **Address:** Carretera Artà-Canyamel Km 8, Finca Torre Canyamel, 07589 Capdepera, Spain - **Price:** €€€€ - **Distinction:** Michelin Selected · Repsol 1 Sol - **Website:** https://www.cansimoneta.com/en/restaurant/can-simoneta-gastronomic - **Full profile:** https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/can-simoneta-gastronomic Can Simoneta Gastronòmic is the fine-dining restaurant inside the Can Simoneta hotel near Canyamel, on Mallorca's east coast. Chef David Moreno, who is Mexican and worked four years as head chef under Andreu Genestra before starting this project, calls his concept 'Mexiterranean', Mediterranean cooking crossed with Mexican flavours and technique. There's no à la carte, just a single tasting menu that walks through that idea course by course. It holds a Michelin Guide listing and a Repsol Sol, awarded in 2023. The dress code is smart casual, and the room feels romantic and cozy rather than stiff, quiet enough for real conversation. Reserve ahead through the hotel, since it's a tasting-menu-only room. ### 9. Sa Torre *A weekly-changing tasting menu served inside a centuries-old wine cellar on a family-run rural estate.* - **Neighbourhood:** Ses Alqueries - **Address:** Carretera MA-3020 Santa Maria-Sencelles, Km. 7, 07142 Santa Eugenia, Mallorca, Spain - **Price:** €€€ - **Website:** https://www.sa-torre.com - **Full profile:** https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/sa-torre Sa Torre is the restaurant of a family-run rural estate off the MA-3020 between Santa Maria del Camí and Sencelles, run by brothers Pedro and Victoriano López-Pinto, with Victoriano cooking alongside his partner, Carme Jubany Soldevila. The dining room is the estate's old wine cellar, still lined with its original large wine casks, lit by candlelight and wagon-wheel chandeliers. There's a single tasting menu that changes weekly with the season, no à la carte, built on Mediterranean produce, and the restaurant pours from its own private wine collection including an estate-produced label. Note allergies or vegetarian needs when you book, since the menu can't be modified otherwise; vegan menus aren't offered and children under 14 aren't accommodated. Reported open Thursday to Sunday for dinner, so confirm current days directly. ### 10. Shima *Nikkei cuisine on a terrace over the Bay of Pollença, inside Four Seasons Resort Mallorca at Formentor.* - **Neighbourhood:** Formentor - **Address:** Four Seasons Resort Mallorca at Formentor, Carrer de Formentor, s/n, 07470 Port de Pollença, Spain - **Price:** €€€€ - **Website:** https://www.fourseasons.com/mallorca/dining/restaurants/shima/ - **Full profile:** https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/shima Shima is the Nikkei restaurant at Four Seasons Resort Mallorca at Formentor, on the Cap de Formentor peninsula, pairing Japanese technique with Peruvian ingredients across ceviche, tiradito, sashimi, maki and nigiri, plus a robata grill for hot dishes. It opened in 2025 on a terrace looking out over the Bay of Pollença. Executive chef Francesco Manelli, who trained in Australia including at Four Seasons Sydney, runs two set omakase tasting menus, a signature version and a vegetarian one, alongside an à la carte. The dress code is smart casual, and the sea view sets a special-occasion tone rather than a family-casual one. It's dinner only, daily, and reservations run through the resort rather than a third-party app, since it's a seasonal property tied to the resort's calendar. ### 11. Es Balcó de Son Vida *A newly renovated, adults-only dining room on a hilltop above Palma, from a chef who trained under Santi Taura.* - **Neighbourhood:** Son Vida - **Address:** Carrer Raixa, 2, Urbanización Son Vida, 07013 Palma, Mallorca, Spain - **Price:** €€€€ - **Website:** https://castillohotelsonvida.com - **Full profile:** https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/es-balco-de-son-vida Es Balcó de Son Vida is the restaurant of Castillo Hotel Son Vida, a 13th-century estate hotel on a hilltop above Palma, reopened on 23 April 2026 after a full renovation of the dining room using wood, linen, terrazzo and marble. Chef David Méndez, who worked at Cap Rocat and trained at DINS by Santi Taura before joining the hotel in late 2024, cooks Mediterranean food with a contemporary Mallorcan identity, seasonal produce reworked with modern technique. Dinner runs à la carte, with sections for starters, a Mediterranean raw selection, rice and pasta, fish and farm-to-table dishes, alongside two tasting menus. It's an adults-only space with a terrace and a winter garden that opens fully in warm weather, both looking over Palma and the bay. Open to outside diners as well as hotel guests; book via the hotel's Marriott Bonvoy page or by phone. **Order:** - undefined ### 12. Trobar *A three-level bar, restaurant, art gallery and shop where a rotating cast of chef residencies serves sharing plates on hand-made artist tableware.* - **Neighbourhood:** Es Pelats - **Address:** Carrer de l'Agulla, 18, 07590 Cala Ratjada, Mallorca, Spain - **Price:** €€€ - **Website:** https://trobar.co - **Full profile:** https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/trobar Trobar occupies three levels on Carrer de l'Agulla in Cala Ratjada: a rooftop used for dinner, a ground-floor dining room, and an underground cocktail bar called trobasement. Founded in 2023 by Dolli Taylor and Fabio Donghi, it doubles as a gallery and shop for the artists behind Taylor's sister project, trobat.co, and every cup, plate and glass on the table is one of their pieces. The kitchen has no fixed head chef; instead a different chef takes over roughly every 2 to 4 weeks with an entirely new sharing-plates menu, so the food itself is always a bit of a surprise. It's a design-led space built as much for a striking evening out as for the food. Rooftop dinner runs Wednesday to Sunday from 19:00, with a card required to hold the table. ### 13. Agapanto *A relaunched beachfront restaurant built around a whole Sóller lobster course, caviar pairings and regular live music.* - **Neighbourhood:** Port de Sóller - **Address:** Camí del Far, 2, 07108 Port de Sóller, Illes Balears, Spain - **Price:** €€€ - **Website:** https://www.agapanto.com - **Full profile:** https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/agapanto Agapanto sits right on the beachfront on the Repic side of Port de Sóller, with a terrace facing the Mediterranean and the Tramuntana behind. It relaunched in 2026 under chef Stephan Medina, pairing its long history on this stretch of coast, including its old subtitle 'Flor del Amor' (flower of love), with a renewed kitchen. The à la carte menu centres on a whole Sóller lobster course for two, offered alongside Beluga and Osetra caviar pairings, plus dishes like grilled entrecôte and an 800g T-bone. Local write-ups describe regular live music, ranging from soul and pop to saxophone and Cuban rhythms, alongside candlelit tables. The restaurant also hosts weddings, birthdays and anniversaries. Open Tuesday to Sunday, 13:00 to 22:30, with Sunday shifting to a differentiated menu and brunch service. **Order:** - undefined ## Honourable mentions - **[Sa Pleta by Marc Fosh](https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/sa-pleta-by-marc-fosh)** (Canyamel) — Marc Fosh's open-fire cooking at the adults-only Pleta de Mar hotel in Canyamel, built around a wood-burning grill - **[Stagier Bar](https://guidavera.com/spain/mallorca/restaurants/stagier-bar)** (Santa Catalina) — A tiny, roughly seven-table Santa Catalina room from a Chilean-Peruvian couple, worth booking early for an intimate celebration ## The Special Occasion Restaurants scene in Mallorca Mallorca has one of the highest concentrations of serious fine dining in the Balearics, from two-Michelin-star tasting menus inside coastal hotels to family-run estates that have served weekly-changing menus in the same wine cellar for years. This list exists for the nights that call for more than a good meal: a milestone birthday, an anniversary, a proposal, or just a celebration dinner worth building a reservation around. ## Know before you go ### 1. Booking ahead Several of these restaurants are small, tasting-menu-only rooms, La Fortaleza seats just 30 and Sa Torre serves a single nightly menu, so reserve well before you travel. Some, including Andreu Genestra and Trobar, ask for card details to guarantee the table and charge a fee for late cancellations. ### 2. Dress code A handful of these rooms enforce a dress code. La Fortaleza asks for smart casual attire in public areas after 7pm, Andreu Genestra rules out sportswear, and Es Fum calls for elegant attire, with long trousers and closed shoes for men. ### 3. Age restrictions Some of these restaurants have age rules worth knowing before you book. Restaurante Zaranda requires guests to be 16 or older, Andreu Genestra isn't recommended for children under 12, and La Fortaleza and Sa Torre don't accommodate children under a set age. ### 4. Getting there Many of these restaurants sit inside countryside or coastal hotels well outside Palma, Voro and Can Simoneta Gastronòmic near Canyamel, Shima out at Formentor, Sa Torre near Santa Eugènia, so plan on driving or arranging a taxi rather than relying on public transport. ### 5. Confirm hours before you go Several restaurants on this list run seasonally or shift their schedules year to year, including Voro, Sa Clastra, Es Fum and Shima, so check current opening days and hours directly with the restaurant before booking. ## Frequently asked questions ### What's the only two-Michelin-star restaurant in Mallorca?
