Good food & very tasty but unfortunately for some reason the main & it's accompliment come separately & with a 10 minute wait plus No large plate to put mains on. I ordered Menu del Dia starter arrived fine & was extremely tasty but the second course of Chicken & Almonds arrived look delicious but then the 10 minute wait for fried rice was a bit to long so much so they had to reheat the chicken. Such a shame as a lovely little restaurant with lovely friendly staff & good atmosphere & when I finally did eat my main it was delicious, So I will give it another try.

Lovely restaurant in heart of Ciutadella down a lovely side street. Ordered the crispy chicken in a sweet and spicy ginger sauce and was without doubt one of the best crispy chicken dishes I have tried. Anything else I saw come out of the kitchen looked equally as good. Great option in the town if you’re looking for a change from the Spanish cuisine.

I've traveled the world, and this is the best sushi I've ever had. (Yeah, I know, that sounds like a total douchey thing to say )
