Frommer's Review

In the village of Es Migjorn Gran (San Cristóbal), between Es Mercadal and Santo Tomás, is this cozy and relatively undiscovered restaurant. Except for a small sign on the door, it could be mistaken for any other house on this quiet side street. The building dates from 1740, with sections added throughout the years. The interior is simple: stark white walls accented with artwork. The dining area consists of several small rooms, containing only a few tables each. You can dine outdoors in one of the small patio areas; many overlook the owner's compact vegetable garden. The menu consists of Minorcan specialties, including olaigua (eggplant stuffed with fish), and a particularly succulent version of roasted lamb. Owner José Luis maintains four simple guest rooms that, although clean and cozy, contain virtually no amenities other than private bathrooms and a sense of peace and quiet. A double room, with breakfast included, costs 53€ ($77) per night.
