Restaurante Sol is the beach restaurant of the Hotel Cala Saona complex, built into the rocks of Cala Saona on the west coast of Formentera. It cooks fish, seafood and rice facing the sea, and Tapas Magazine named it on its Best Chiringuito 2026 list.

The food

The kitchen works with local produce, and rice is at the centre of the menu. Every rice is for at least two people, priced per person, and any of them can be made with noodles instead. The 2026 carta had arroz ciego (del senyoret) and arroz negro con calamar, ajos tiernos y alioli cítrico at €40, and arroz a banda with red tuna parpatana at €45 or carabinero at €56.

From the grill come Iberian secreto, Cachena and Simmental beef chops by weight, lobster, Formentera spiny lobster and fresh fish of the day. Cold plates include La Rusa, the Russian salad with red tuna or white prawns, Jamón Joselito and red tuna en escabeche, and the market section brings clams in salsa verde, tellinas, razor clams and red prawns with fried eggs and potatoes.

Tables are booked online in advance. For the same day, call +34 680 66 57 31; the line is answered every day from 10:00 to 17:00.
