Tasty food. The staff is also polite and welcoming. Usually you'll be able to find a table without a reservation but it can be crowded during dinner time. Their sangria is one of the best I had. When it comes to food, I highly recommend you try their ratatouille and majorcan style pork fillet.
The Paella and Sangría are the best, enough for one to be full. Paella is 20 euros and can serve a single diner, unlike other locals. Sangría glass 7 euros, fresh, gazpacho was also nice, but everything is enough and more to make a single person full. Must see, I will come back for sure :)
Delish Paellea. Not on the menu but devine. Sangria was the best ever. I little cavern of Palma.
Love this restaurant. Do not get the poor reviews because we loved everything..location..food..wine..prices..staff very friendly. Typical Mallorcan tapas done well. Had the cutest outdoor table ( only 2 ) which was a perfect retreat from midday sun. Indoor looks lovely too and would be lovely in evening or cooler months. Will definately return.
A wonderful lunch at a great restaurant. The food was delicious and the staff was friendly and efficient even though they were very busy. I recommend.
Did a walk-in for a late lunch. Was seated quickly. Everything we ordered was amazing. We order the cheese plate, the lamb chops and the Steak sirloin. The meat was cooked to perfection. I drank the best Sangria of my life and had the most amazing tiramisu for dessert. Check out the pictures
The paella is amazing and in great portion sizes. They have an extensive wine list and great menu all round with options if you don’t want paella or tapas
The cozy atmosphere, nestled under an old stone archway, adds to the charm of the experience. Tinto de verano was a standout, refreshing and well-balanced. The service was friendly and attentive, making the overall experience even better. If you're in the area, El Tunel is definitely worth a visit for a delicious and authentic Spanish meal.
