Today, we bring you a list of some of the coziest restaurants on the island, perfect for a relaxing dinner, a leisurely Sunday lunch, or a little culinary indulgence. Grab a pen and paper!

CAN PAU

A true classic among classics. Can Pau is one of Ibiza's oldest restaurants, exuding an authentic charm that only years of experience and dedication can create. Traditional dishes like croquettes, cauliflower with béchamel, or huevos rotos reach new heights in this rustic eatery, complete with wooden beams and a fireplace. Fun fact: Naomi Campbell was a huge fan of their oxtail cannelloni. She loved it so much that Alba, the owner, used to bring it to her in a tupperware at Space! If you’re looking for tradition and authentic flavors, this is the spot for you.

 

LA PLACE DE L’APERO

A slice of France in the heart of Ibiza. This restaurant combines elegance, simplicity, and a delicious menu that will transport you straight to Paris. Behind its success are the same people who brought us the much-loved Pastisse, masters of capturing hearts (and taste buds) with their French touch. Perfect for a romantic dinner or a meal with friends, don’t miss their entrecôte with fries or their famous escargots.

 

CAS PAGÉS

A hidden gem in an authentic Ibizan farmhouse, where time seems to stand still. This family-run restaurant is an institution for lovers of traditional Ibizan cuisine. Its standout dish? The arroz de matança—a rich, flavorful rice dish deeply rooted in the island’s heritage and the top choice for most guests. If you want to savor the true essence of Ibiza and mingle with locals who know their food, this gastronomic temple could become your go-to spot.

 

CAN ALFREDO

Located on Vara de Rey in the heart of Ibiza town, Can Alfredo has a cozy, homey vibe that rivals Can Pau in age and tradition but holds its own in flavor. The menu is packed with fresh fish, seafood, and spectacular rice dishes, making it perfect for a family meal or a gathering with friends. If you’re craving authenticity and a warm atmosphere, this is the place to be.

 

LA LUNA N’ELL ORTO

In the charming village of Sant Miquel, this Argentine restaurant invites you to enjoy a unique experience in a beautiful Ibizan farmhouse. What’s the highlight? Their homemade empanadas and grilled meats, which will take you straight to a traditional Argentine parrilla. And in winter, their fantastic set menu offers a delicious feast at an unbeatable price, perfect for treating yourself without breaking the bank.

 

SA CAPELLA

Sa Capella is much more than a restaurant: it’s an experience filled with history, charm, and culinary excellence. Housed in a carefully preserved 16th-century chapel just outside San Antonio, this iconic spot offers an atmosphere that’s hard to match. Their menu is a love letter to Mediterranean cuisine, focusing on high-quality ingredients and traditional flavors. Dishes you can’t miss include succulent lamb and an impressive selection of fresh seafood. And for dessert? Don’t miss their flambéed creations prepared at your table, a spectacle that tastes as good as it looks.
