Ciutadella
An old-world building with an elegant whitewashed interior and tables on a pine-dotted square and interior patio, Pins 46 specialises in smartly prepared local cuisine given contemporary flair. Tapas and light bites include Galician-style octopus, Menorcan prawns or truffle ravioli drizzled with boletus sauce, while tempting mains range from perfectly grilled meats to hake in almond sauce.
The efficient team also runs the immensely popular seafood-focused Café Balear, by Ciutadella's port.
