Background
About Shima
The Story
Shima is the Nikkei restaurant at Four Seasons Resort Mallorca at Formentor, on the Cap de Formentor peninsula in Port de Pollença. It opened in 2025 as part of the resort's dining lineup, on a terrace looking out over the Bay of Pollença, and pairs Japanese technique with Peruvian ingredients under the Nikkei style.
The Cuisine
The kitchen works in Nikkei, the fusion style that developed among Japanese communities in Peru, so the format runs ceviche, tiradito, sashimi, maki and nigiri alongside a robata grill for hot dishes and yakitori. Shima's own published menu offers two set omakase tasting menus, a signature version and a vegetarian version, plus an a la carte spanning raw piqueos, cooked shusai nikkei dishes, robatayaki, sashimi, maki and nigiri.
The Chef
Francesco Manelli
The Team
Executive chef Francesco Manelli, a chef from Florence with a decade of experience in Australia including at Four Seasons Sydney, leads Shima's kitchen. He works under Javier Hoebeeck, the Belgian-Mallorcan chef who oversees the resort's wider gastronomic offering; Hoebeeck previously held a Michelin star at his earlier restaurant, Fusion19, though that star belongs to that restaurant and not to Shima.

Shima Dining Experience
Shima sits on a terrace at Four Seasons Resort Mallorca at Formentor, looking out over the Bay of Pollença from the Cap de Formentor peninsula. The dress code is smart casual, and the mood is adult and special-occasion rather than family-casual, in keeping with the resort's wider positioning. The sea view sets the tone for a menu of ceviches, tiraditos, robata-grilled dishes and sushi.
