Background

About Es Verger

The Story

Es Verger is a farmhouse restaurant on the mountain track between Alaro and the Castell d'Alaro, reached by a winding road or on foot from the village. The setting is rustic and the draw is the view as much as the food: an open mountain panorama.

The Cuisine

The kitchen is traditional Mallorcan, and the signature is slow-roasted lamb shoulder (paletilla de cordero). It's the dish people climb the mountain for. For the rest of the menu, check in person.
