If you are seeking to make the most of the island’s authentic gastronomy, where better than the spot the first Phoenicians chose to settle? The Sa Caleta Restaurant – which is framed by ocher clay and the blue of the sea, and located at the foot of es Bol Nou beach, just a few meters from the fishing port of sa Caleta – invites you to enjoy authentic Ibizan culture that, after 36 years on the frontline, remains among local food lovers’ favorites.

Local and zero-kilometer products, accompanied by fabulous wines from the island’s wineries, set sa Caleta’s menu apart, leaving a mark on your memory and not on the planet. We have selected three outstanding dishes from its extensive range. 

SALMONETES DE ROCA

A starter caught using an artisanal and traditional fishing method with trammel nets, by the fisherman José Núñez in his boat Cap Nonó.

BULLIT DE PEIX

A selection of fish delivered by local boats llaüt Cap alt, by Guillem Pista and Marc; from Mariano’s llaüt Ángel; and the Piset family’s Llaüt El Jurel. Accompanied by vegetables and condiments from the garden at their family farm Can Puvil, run by Marina, and from Can Cantó in Benimusa, by Juanvi; and the house’s special fish broth.

LA GREIXONERA

A typical Ibizan pastry pudding made with eggs from the island’s farmyards and ensaimada pastries baked by the Noguera family, who have been in business since 1969.

All this and much more in a spot that will make you feel that you are part of the Sa Caleta family along with all the professionals and friends mentioned – besides the Ros butcher shop and the Iborra Brothers, without whom, as they say, “the work as we understand it would be impossible”.
