Opening times
El Mirador sits high on the road up to La Mola on Formentera, at km 14.2, beside the Mirador de Formentera viewpoint between Es Caló de Sant Agustí and El Pilar de la Mola. Joan founded it in the 1960s and his son Vicent runs it today.
The food
The house sees itself as one of the last strongholds of genuine Formentera cooking: the island's traditional recipes, kept apart from passing fashions. That is what has made it a reference for island food.
Visiting
From the terrace you see the whole island from east to west and, across the water, Ibiza and the rock of Es Vedrà. Book online through the CoverManager link on the restaurant's website; bookings are not taken by e-mail. Phone: +34 971 32 70 37. Season dates and opening hours are not published.
Nearby
The Mirador de Formentera viewpoint is right beside it, the fishing harbour of Es Caló de Sant Agustí is at the foot of the climb, and El Pilar de la Mola is a few minutes further up the road.
