Es Taller sits at the edge of Valldemossa by a sandy car park — an unassuming location in this gorgeous mountain village. But what hides behind the facade is extraordinary.
The former auto workshop is cool. Mega cool! Beautifully renovated with a lofty vintage style and real character. The outdoor areas sit in the restaurant's own vegetable garden — an experience in itself.
I started with the Empanaditas de ternera gauchas. Sublime! The bread alone is heavenly. The Croquetas de Butifarrón with tomato confiture — truly exceptional homemade croquettes.
The Cerdito Ibérico con Mole de Oaxaca, a modern take on Mallorcan suckling pig, was cooked to absolute perfection. Tradition meets creativity.
Service is understated but extremely friendly and helpful. The value is sensational: tapas for 4–6 euros, mains 18 euros.
Unexpectedly cool. Unexpectedly good. You absolutely must visit!
