Tucked away in San Lorenzo, this fine-dining experience fashions the contemporary out of Ibiza’s bounty. The cuisine mixes classic Mediterranean plates with chef Mark Gelman’s Israeli training in fresh new ways. The restaurant cultivates an easy-going atmosphere, with an open-air dining area strewn with an organised abundance of foliage.
Markus Chef’s Kitchen entices diners with its diverse menu of fresh local ingredients, often sourced by Gelman from markets that morning.

Casual DINNER IN IBIZA
La Paloma
A restaurant guide to Ibiza wouldn’t be complete without a doffed cap to the much-loved La Paloma. La Paloma’s openness and bohemian charm has lulled locals and visitors into an easy sense of contentment. This family-run restaurant has been rustically pieced together over time with colourfully painted wooden furniture and lanterns dripping from trees.
The simplicity of the food and the laid-back ambience has got us itching to go back to simpler summer times in La Paloma’s beautiful garden. The menu consists of Ibizan and Tuscan ingredients; fresh fish and charcuterie, pastas and light salads grown from their own veggie garden.
Immerse yourself in the scents of summer by dining amongst the blossoming trees in the languid evenings. Or, cosy up in the intimate embrace of the old finca house. This restaurant is a must on all fronts when visiting Ibiza.
