The harbourside restaurant at Hotel Portixol is bright and breezy with sea views and a blue-white colour scheme. The menu is ingredient-driven, treating Med produce to the occasional international twist: perhaps a seafood laksa with rice rather than noodles, or grilled red tuna with edemame beans and wasabi mayonnaise. Vegetarian options include a miso burger with sweet potato fries.
