That really makes me sad. In the very early 2000s, that was our sensible last dinner place, where some would struggle, some would relax and some would decide on one last night out.

The Curry Club was a shadow of its former self in its latter years. I had a pretty poor meal there in 2021.

Assumed there was an issue with the foundations, hence no development?

Burgers
Pizzas

Suggestions please! Staying near OB so start of the bay or san an preferably:)

Burgers - The Kitchen 62 if a bit further into the Bay is ok. Otherwise Eat Me & Mundo in San An.

Pizzas - Pizzaman is near OB in the Bay. Es Mirai near Golden Buddha is the best in San An though.
 
I’m a big fan of Kitchen 62 for burgers (and wraps) and they also do the Complot IPA which I posted about elsewhere on here yesterday

Likewise with El Kiosko. Natural Pau which is closer to O Beach has a very similar menu so may be the same people? Both are good pizza and good vibes
 
I haven’t written a [RSTRNT RVW] in a while now.

I either haven’t felt up to it, been too busy, or the season flew by and I’ve just left it. When I first started writing reviews on here, they were depictions of my entire holiday, containing full story arcs and feel good finales. I love reading everyone’s experiences. Tales from the clubs, beaches, bars and restaurants are important for so many reasons. The food of the island is the highlight of every day for me and the family.

I think now more than ever, it's important we share the experiences so we can all add to our to-do lists. Some of which still try to remain “affordable” given the challenges, as well as some of the incredible high end offerings which are outstanding, world class. There is a perfect mix of choice. But some places still charge €2.50 for a beer and you can have a top lunch for 4 with change from €25. There are some faves we didn’t get to this year which must be in the mix for anyone looking for authentic but affordable fayre: Bar San Juan, Fonda Can Costa, Cas Pages, Es Pins etc etc etc. Do seek them out if you haven’t given them a go yet. They are incredible and instill hope that some things remain as they always were, for a little longer yet.

With all that in mind, we usually have a budget to work from. If we had a blow out one day, then the following would comprise the cool bag, maybe Bar Costa or similar, a pizza night to balance the books as it were. So here are some tales from the road, circumnavigating the island once again in our sporty convertible (*hired Fiat Panda with electric windows)

Los Pasajeros, Ibiza Town
If you like your restaurants plastered in club posters, with bench seating, a techno soundtrack and an ingenious piece of interior design to house a toilet, this is for you. Our second time here and to be fair, last time they were playing all kinds of music, right across the board. Smiley happy people are your hosts. And as the seats fill up throughout the evening, the volume of chatter rises alongside the organised chaos of the open kitchen. All things combined, the atmosphere is a joy. Mediterranean style grilled fish, meat and Argentinian specialities along with some vegetarian options. Seats available out on the balcony too. Zero frills, maximum vibe. Starters from €10. Around €17-23 for main dishes and cheap prices for a beer.

Balneario, Cala Carbo
Cala Carbo is a gem. Never too busy, always beautifully calm and the surroundings are incredible. Balneario is a feet in the sand, classic fish restaurant nestled at the back of the cove. The staff are proper old school fish lovers who revel in telling you what’s available and are genuinely happy to see everyone who arrives. One seemingly annual visitor took his seat and asked how the waiter Toni had been keeping, “Everything is good, every day we work in paradise”. I’m aware that this is absolutely not the case for everyone who works in Ibiza hospitality, but it was a lovely thing to hear. We went for the baked fish for two along with a couple of sole meunière for the juniors. Absolutely superb. Only our second time here and already a firm favourite. A special afternoon. Market price for the fish. Sole was €28. Drinks all average prices. Hierbas on the house.

La Vela, Cala Llonga
I reckon they must be in to their fifth season now. Another family favourite, excellent pizzas and some great stand alone dishes such as their slow cooked chicken finished in the wood oven. Their Tiramisu is a treat too. They had some staffing issues in the past which let down service from time to time, but this year they are all on it. Lovely people at the helm. We called in for a beer and limoncello on other nights too. Starters €6-12. Pizzas start at €10 and the chicken is €16. Beer €2.50.

Bon Lloc, Jesus
This roadside classic has had a makeover in recent years and it’s been done rather tastefully, softening some of the retro edges. Still an ace spot to sit on the terrace. We just got a few plates on the way back up the road one day. Really substantial portions. €7 each for bravas and padron. They also have a great breakfast menu from €2 for a tostada. Then in the evening it’s grilled fish and meat. Very fond of this place.

Moos, Cala Llonga
Another Cala Longa staple who are well established now and yet we had never tried it. But having decided to give the Panda a rest and spend the day locally, we went here for lunch and it’s a great spot. Salads start at €16 - Curry cauliflower did it for me. Sandwiches are hefty and impressive at €10. And one of the kids had a heavy duty chocolate banana bowl thing which would have put me into an early siesta. They also deliver right across the island.

Tropicana, Cala Jondal
We haven't been to Cala Jondal in years. I had Tropicana on the list for a while but didn't realise how huge it was. The staff seem to be on top of it all though, some of them jogging around the place tending to the needs of the ones up front who don't auite manage to make it from their bed to a table. Despite its size, it didn't feel too "beach club" where we were sitting, which was a relief and neither did the prices. We got a few bits and pieces for the table including a Caesar salad, bread and then their paella. Not as rich as I would have liked, quite light but throughly enjoyable.

A couple of cañas, a couple of glasses of blanco, cheesecake dessert and a pair of Hierbas on the house. Salad was €15 ish, paella €29 each and dessert €9. Again drinks average prices and reasonable. Back to base in the sand and sea to wallow in the gluttony. An enjoyable afternoon, but when it comes to paella, we had a hall of famer at Ses Boques last year and good old El Carmen never, ever disappoints, so I'm not sure when we'll fit this one in again.

Maneki, Cala Llonga
New for this season and a project run by a couple of chefs from Casa Piedra up on the main road. They have taken on the corner site behind Can Nuts, previously home to El Deseo back in the day and others since. Asian style burgers, sushi and other specialties. A really interesting menu and they seemed to be doing very well so far (mid July). We had their Samurai take on bravas and a crunchy, fried chicken sushi rice then their Tokio chicken burgers. The fries are excellent. They also have specials on the day. Starters from €11, burgers from €16, some other mains go up to €22.

Bar Costa, Santa Gertrudis
Still doing what they do very, very well. A holiday essential for our family every time. At least once, or to take away. €2.50 for a tostada or take your pick from the bocadillos or plates. As I get older, I much prefer sitting inside. This is one of the greats for us. Simple pleasures.

Altrove, Cala Llonga
In the spot of the old Valentinos after that operator returned to Turin. This is another Italian restaurant with a really tight and simple menu. The host is an incredibly nice guy. Very genuine and obviously in his element. We heard good things about their pizzas so that took care of 3 of the diners. 3 very happy diners it turned out. I went for the sea bass with a white wine reduction, capers, olives and salad. It was fantastic. An incredible sauce and the fish, perfectly cooked. The salad was light and refreshing and the dressing was a sublime pairing. Just one of those special, simple dishes. Tiramisu and their home made cannolis to finish. Magic. Then a treat of his house limoncello which he had very proudly sourced for the season. I concur on his pride. Pizzas from €9. Sea bass €22. Pasta from €15. Drinks all average prices.
 
La Tana, Ibiza Town
A little Italian place in the area behind Croissant Show with tables out on the street. A beautiful location. Quite a small menu from memory. But wow. We shared the gambas and calamares tempura then the main dishes. The seafood pasta was truly sensational. I'm not always first to the pasta section, but I had heard good things, so if ever there was a reason to hit the pasta section, this was it. The flavours were incredible. One for the books. My wife had the linguine vongole which also went down a total storm and the kids had pasta with the house sauce. We ordered a couple of desserts, and only received one. Which leads on to the negative.

The service that night was woeful. I mention all the above dishes as kudos to the kitchen. Out front, it was chaos. My wife's main dish arrived after everyone else had finished. Red flag offence. A round of drinks went awol. Dessert took 40 minutes and we only got one in the end. One guy was trying to hold it together, but his partner for the night let him down. Fair play to them though, they didn't charge us for the linguine and the tiramisu was on the house too as an apology for the desserts going missing. And a round of free limoncellos. So a bad night for the waiting staff but they handled the aftermath extremely well, so it won't put me off going back. I need to at the very least, just sniff that seafood sauce once more. Starters €18-28. Main pasta dishes €24-31.

Anitas, San Carlos
Halfway through a holiday, sometimes you just need to recalibrate. And this is the place. Another family essential. Usually just for a cold one and a Calippo coming back from a day up north. It is one of the icons of the island as far as I’m concerned. A joy to sit beneath the natural canopy. This time however, lunch. An array of classic, simple, island specialities on offer. But also, egg and chips. Which is what the majority had. I tried their Ibizan Salad which was excellent. A real rustic and classic mix of potatoes, olive oil, olives, tomatoes, onion and peppers. Wonderful. Flao and cortado to follow. Reset… complete. Egg & chips €8. Salad €13. Flao €4.

Bai Bai, Ibiza Town
A Basque tapas place at the very far end of the port. A lovely location away from the central bustle for a change and a very busy place in its own right, there was a queue for most of the time we were there. But every bar down that way was very, very quiet. We had a brilliant evening. All the dishes were cooked perfectly. Light and airy croquettes, classic padron, bravas, monkfish and prawn skewers, sticky chicken wing things, honey roasted goats cheese and a knock out cheese cake to round it off. Just a great vibe all night long. Cana €3. Bravas €10. Croquettes €11. Skewers €13. All very simple, fairly priced and worth every cent. Loved it.

Shamarkanda, San Juan
A surprisingly sprawling place just outside San Juan. But it's the central garden out back which is where the main dining area is in peak summer and it is quite a scene with the tables nestled down amongst trees and greenery, all lit up by low hanging rattan lights. Lebanese hummus, toasted chick peas and chia + poppadoms to start plus their kimchee croquettes which were excellent. For main, it was between the croaker and the squid... I went for the squid, which in the end wasn't for me. The combo of textures with the leaves and cheese plus the intense sauce didn't work for my palate. My wife had the artichoke risotto which she really enjoyed and for kids they do home made chicken fritters or pasta.

The cheese cake with raspberry lemon and mint sorbet was another intense combo. A very cheesy cheese cake, but with the sorbet, it absolutely worked. Then Hierbas Can Vidal on the house to wrap things up. A beautiful drive up the road as the sun was setting and great to sit in the garden as day turned to night. Good times. Next time, the croaker.

SOS, Cala Llonga
A family run place still doing their thing after decades on the front. They used to have a huge menu but it’s a one pager now and they are packing them in, even with Regina filling their seats next door too which is great to see. We had one night in here for seabass fillets and a bottle of white. Always an enjoyable evening and little jars of limoncello and Hierbas are left on the table afterwards to meet all your nightcap needs. €23 for the fish. €25 for wine. Normal for beer etc too.

San Carlos Bar & Grill, San Carlos
I don't know how many times I’ve driven past here, taken a photo of the menu and not made it back. Set in off the road on the outskirts of San Carlos, a stones throw from Anita’s, inside was packed when we arrived and the grill was in full effect. Provoleta and bread to get things started plus a grilled vegetable dish. Then I think it was grilled salmon, grouper and another from the grill I can’t quite remember. All cooked beautifully. Given the style of cooking there are also extensive meat options to fire up. Dessert was excellent too. No surprises that our tiramisu and cheese cake sampling tour continued. Top night and lovely to be in San Carlos after sundown. I’m struggling to remember some prices for this one, but I think around €23 for the grouper, €25 for salmon, €8-€10 for our starters. Drinks normal price.

Shanti, Cala Llonga
The last time I was in this building I was getting a pre departure covid test. That's when it was Sol's bar, these days it's Shanti, a new Indian restaurant which opened towards the end of last season and fortunately my sense of taste and smell tonight was as strong as it was when I got a negative result on the test in 2021. Which meant I could go home and not to the Covid hotel in Bossa.

The setting is beautiful. Outside, it looks like it's been there since the day Cala Llonga was founded. I love the shape of the building, nestled among thick bamboo. Inside is stylishly designed; more bamboo, terracotta tiles, the ever present rattan lights, and an open kitchen centre stage to the back. We kicked off with cocktails (penultimate night of the holiday, off the rails spending vibes) which were incredible. A Bollywood Sour and a Delhi Tikki and a round of poppadoms with accompanying dips which were superb.

Tandoori chicken Tikka with onions and chutney to start plus spiced potato croquettes with tomato kasundi. Fantastic. Butter chicken with like a cashew crumble thing on top. Prawns and hake Goan style curry with black rice and their version of a Chicken Biryani. Every dish a total winner and the flavours were on a different level. Pistachio cheesecake for the finale. Staff were wonderful and the vibe of the place was perfect. A glorious night and I’m glad we decided to go for our last night in Cala Llonga as we were heading to Ibiza Town for the final fling. Starters €12-25. Mains €18-30. Cocktails €15 ish.

La Bodega, Ibiza Town
This used to be another of our family staples. The kids adored this place and we got to know one of the girls who worked here over the years. She's long gone now. We had some good times, late nights, a bottle of Hierbas left on the table post-dinner. Those were the days. We hadn't been since 2019. So for old time's sake and to relive some wonderful memories, we decided to head back. We're not red meat eaters these days so it was a different selection from the menu for us compared to 2019, but they have some good options across the board and a "green" veggie section. It was, as always, packed outside. But inside was quite empty.

The food was the same as ever, not much seems to have changed over the years. When it came to the bill then, our waiter - who I have to say really had been a major tit the entire night to be honest, shouted loudly over the other diner’s heads to confirm what the amount was, made sure to tell me, loudly, that a tip was not included and asked would I like to add one for the staff from my card. Lols. I do leave a tip everywhere I go. But it's at my discretion, I'm not going to shout it over my neighbouring diners to a waiter standing out on the road. I told him not to worry, I had cash which I could leave. I didn't. And I didn't. This guy’s vibe was just off. Anyway, we had fun, el vino did flow etc, but we shall say bye bye to La Bodega for a bit and perhaps hello to Bai Bai and a few other alternative tapas gaffs from the list in the future.
 
Bars

We stop off at quite a few bars on our travels, but special mention for a handful of favourites this year:

Montesol Rooftop, Ibiza Town
It’s over 16s only at The Standard, so we called in here one night for a surprise treat... and went 4 times again. After a lovely early evening wandering the streets then sitting in Plaza del Parque, I guided the fam into a lift in the hotel lobby. No explanation. The doors closed. We began our ascent. The lift came to a stop, the door slid open and right in front of us, Dalt Vila rising in the distance. An incredible moment for the ages. A view I’m obsessed with at the best of times, but seeing it from this height and angle was incredible. Tiny birds, too fast to identify, swoop over the heads on the terrace and down into Vara de Rey below on a loop. Music on a perfect Balearic tip. It felt like a magical step back in time. Like that classic 70’s photo of the old Pacha rooftop bar. Magical. €6 for a cana. Cocktails €15+.

Cas Campaner, The Campo
In the depths of the countryside close to Atzaro, a little roadside shop, bar, cafe, community hub. We called in for a coffee on the way over to Benirras. Absolute silence apart from the surrounding nature, the low hubbub of gossip from the locals and the odd passing car from time to time at 10kmph max. A little oasis away from pretty much everything.

Sal Lot, Ibiza Town
We’ve been stopping in here for the last few years on the walk in from the bus station. It’s a simple little locals place with cheap beer and tables on the side street and road. You used to have to watch where you put your beer on the table in case the pigeons above the canopy let loose with a bowel movement straight into your Estrella. But they have a metal strip across this year to prevent any brown bombs. There’s nothing luxurious, and the toilets are a disaster, but it’s just a nondescript bar to call in for a cold one to start the night and the lady behind the bar with the immaculately coiffed hair is always smiling.

Madagascar, Plaza del Parque
As documented over the years, Plaza del Parque is one of my favourite places on the island. We stayed regularly at Hostal Parque back in the day. And every year we used to stop off at a few places around town and then back to Herry’s bar on the corner after dinner. This year we seemed to end up here in Madagascar. It was always by far the busiest so the vibe was excellent. The waiter out front seems to work every night solo and he covers all the tables without breaking a sweat. A master. I popped into the toilet one night and as I walked by he was on his tip toes pulling beers from the opposite side of the bar. Just a great place to hang out on the busy square.

Regardless of how much Ibiza changes, some of these age old past times; sinking crisp canas, staring out to sea, tracking the setting sun, or simply watching the world go by wherever your special place may be… these simple island pleasures will always remain at the centre of our own Ibiza universe.

Service vibes are always legendary one way or the other in Ibiza town. I've learned to roll with it over the years. Given up trying to suss if someone is being at best languid or at worst lazy or if they rather we just f***ed off somewhere else. Tourist fatigue id imagine has a little to do with it but that's little consolation when as a punter u make the effort. Disappointed in La Bodega there from your visit.
 
Was re-reading Amigo's epic posts again last night and I thought the last line in particular was so beautifully written. It reaffirmed my longstanding view that he is one of the best writers on this forum and that these kinds of insightful posts deserve some place in maybe some new subforum for classic/incredibly useful material you don't really want to lose in the ether. Would that be an idea for the mods to consider? I guess that kind of category is very subjective of course. The comments about Anitas really struck a chord with me. By far one of my fave places on the planet and I love the food, drink and general vibe there. I just hope it never gets ruined.
 
Thank you amigos. It is a pleasure to write them and a joy to read everyone's tales as they drop in. The island never fails to inspire. This forum has played such a huge and informative part in my Ibiza experience from line ups to wedding to hierbas recipes to beaches to parking space hacks etc etc etc. And I know that is also true for every single one of us.
 
Wow @Amigo, brilliant reviews. Thank you. I’ve taken a note of all the Ibiza Town ones for our week at the end of the month. Think the only one from your list we’ve been in is La Bodega, planning to go there on our second night.
 
Dear experts, what's the deal with el Bigote in Mastella these days? Do you have to book ahead, or a chance to get a table showing up there? Can you actually book and if yes by phone, I guess?

I haven’t been for a couple of years but the usual drill is definitely book in advance for the 2.30pm sitting which is the signature bullit de peix. The midday sitting is grilled fish and typically not always as in demand iirc.

The magic number 650 797 633.
