Where Locals Eat in Mallorca: 3 Hidden Restaurants You’ll Never Forget

You can find pizza and paella on every corner of Mallorca, but true food lovers know the real gems are hidden away from tourist strips. Here are three culinary treasures that locals keep to themselves:


1. Es Verger (Alaró) – Set beneath a castle in the Tramuntana mountains, this rustic lamb restaurant serves some of the best “cordero al horno” on the island. It’s family-run, cash-only, and unforgettable.


 

2. Ca Na Toneta (Caimari) – A farm-to-table experience where the menu changes with the seasons. Ingredients are sourced from their own garden or nearby producers. You’ll need to book in advance.

3. Celler Sa Premsa (Palma) – A traditional “celler” that has been serving homemade Mallorcan cuisine since 1958. Think frito mallorquín, tumbet, and ensaimadas that rival grandma’s.


 

Bonus tip: Ask for local wines like Binissalem DO or Pla i Llevant — they’re often more affordable and surprisingly good.
