Paella is the dish most visitors look for on Formentera, and the island cooks it the way it eats: by the sea, mostly with seafood. The map and the cards below show every restaurant that lists it on its own menu, with each paella as the restaurant writes it and its price per person, cheapest first. To filter the island's restaurants by what you feel like, use the restaurants page.
Paella and its cousins
The menus here offer more than one kind of rice, and the names are worth knowing before you order.
- Paella: rice cooked in a wide, shallow pan. On Formentera it is mostly made with seafood (marinera or de marisco), sometimes mixed with meat, or with vegetables. Lobster paella, paella de bogavante, is the island's luxury version.
- Arròs negre (arroz negro): rice made black with squid ink, served with alioli.
- Arroz del senyoret: seafood rice with everything already peeled, so nothing needs your fingers; senyoret means "little gentleman".
- Fideuà: the same pan with short, thin noodles instead of rice.
- Bullit de peix with arròs a banda: Formentera's fish stew, served first, then rice cooked in its broth. Es Molí de Sal and Tanga serve it.
How it is priced
Rice is priced per person on most menus, and some restaurants only cook it for two or more, so ask if you are on your own. The cards on this page give every paella with its price, cheapest first. Prices change from one season to the next, so check the restaurant's own menu, linked on its page, before you go.
Where on the island
Most of the paella is by the sea. Around La Savina and Ses Illetes, on the way to the island's best known beach, are Beso Beach, Cala Duo, Juan y Andrea, Es Ministre and Es Molí de Sal. On the long south coast of Platja de Migjorn are Es Cupinà, Orilla and Sa Platgeta. Can Rafalet is at Es Caló de Sant Agustí, and Tanga is on Platja de Llevant.
When
Most of these restaurants open in spring and close for the winter. Each restaurant's page shows its season, its hours and whether it is open today, and the restaurants page can show only those open on the day you choose.
Where to eat it
20 places have it on their own menu, from €18 to €115 per person; most cost around €40. Cheapest first, each dish as the restaurant writes it.
