Botànic is the restaurant inside Can Bordoy Grand House & Garden in Palma's old town, set around the hotel's garden. Chef Jhonatan Maldonado took over the kitchen in 2026, ending its earlier plant-forward era.

Background

About Botànic

The Story

Botànic is the restaurant inside Can Bordoy Grand House & Garden, a hotel hidden among the noble mansions of Palma's old town. The dining rooms open onto what the hotel calls the largest private garden in the old quarter, and you can also eat indoors among vines and books. It opened as Mallorca's first plant-forward restaurant, with vegetables leading the plate and fish and meat in a supporting role. In June 2026 the restaurant moved on from that plant-forward concept under a new chef.

The Cuisine

Under founding chef Andrés Benítez, Botànic ran a plant-forward Mediterranean menu built on local island produce; Guía Repsol's listing from that era singled out a lettuce-leaf vegetable taco and a cherry-tomato "Vietnamese pizza" with fresh basil and handmade Mallorcan burrata, with evening tasting menus Repsol listed at 65 and 90 euros. In June 2026 the kitchen passed to Jhonatan Maldonado, who rebuilt the offering, so confirm current menus, dishes and pricing directly with the restaurant.

The Team

Jhonatan Maldonado took over the kitchen at Can Bordoy in 2026, presenting his new gastronomic direction on 15 June 2026, after founding chef Andrés Benítez stepped down following more than five years leading the restaurant. Maldonado trained at the UIB hospitality school in Mallorca and has cooked at Zaranda, Coque and Park Hyatt; press describes his style as a dialogue between his Chilean roots and the Mediterranean.

Getting There

Nearby

Palma is Mallorca's capital, its old town clustered inside medieval walls around the Gothic La Seu cathedral on the seafront. A long promenade runs along the harbour, while the centre's narrow streets hold markets and historic buildings across the old town and surrounding neighbourhoods. Botànic sits on Carrer Forn de la Glòria, about a 2 minute walk from Sa Llotja de Palma.
