Gaucho: one of the
historical places of Formentera, known in the whole island for its Argentinian meat. In this place you can eat outside in a beautiful terrace that leans out on the paseo that leads to the seaside of Es Pujols. The perfume emanated by the
parrilla (grill) fills the streets around the restaurant guiding you up to its entrance, it will be easy to find! The high quality meat is perfectly cooked by the asador (grill master), it will look like if you were in
Buenos Aires :) Among the recommended dishes there are the empanadas as an appetizer,
beef, fillet and rib-eye as a main course. If you’re a true carnivore this will be your paradise.
Bocasalina: it directly leans on the sea giving a precious sight. The place is
taken care of in details, from the dishes presentation to the furnishing. The fine and appetizing menu will make you fall in love with this restaurant, that boasts among its main courses a great
paella and so many stunning fish dishes. Obviously leave a bit of space for the dessert, will you give up a last
gluttonous sin after all?
Gioviale: being in a foreign country doesn't mean turning down
glorious food. The symbol of this philosophy is represented by this restaurant, located a few steps away from the city center of St. Francesc and run by Roman guys. Appetizers and pasta are the cornerstone of this place with portions that defining abundant would be reductive. The Roman tradition is finely honored, with serves that include
carbonara, cacio e pepe, amatriciana and gricia. Tasting a glass of good wine while eating under the covered terrace is everything you need to recharge your batteries after a long day of sea!
