Eating on Sunday in Mallorca in the Tramuntana mountains
If you’re wondering where to eat on Sunday in Mallorca in the Tramuntana, here’s the perfect plan: an easy hike among holm oaks and viewpoints, then open-fire dining at El Vasco, right at the foot of the mountains. Nature, Basque cooking and an unhurried sobremesa with views, what more could you want?
Start your Sunday with a walk at your own pace family, couple or friends. The Serra delivers shaded paths, fresh air and golden sunsets. After the hike, head to El Vasco: parking is easy, swap boots for a glass… and let the Josper aroma do the rest.
El Vasco’s grill hits
Our cooking is all about product and fire. On the menu you’ll find:
- Basque txuleta (dry-aged) carved to your preferred doneness.
- Josper-grilled octopus with panadera potatoes and Pimentón de la Vera.
- Bacalao al pil-pil, emulsified the traditional way.
- Braised beef cheek, silky and rich over truffled parmentier.
To start, go for a cazuelita of txistorra or seasonal zamburiñas. To drink, choose benchmark Rioja and Ribera del Duero, characterful Mallorcan reds (Mantonegro, Callet) or a chilled txakoli—ideal with seafood and grill.
Dessert (and the long sobremesa)
Finish with a northern classic:
- Goxua Mallorquín (yes, served over warm ensaïmada).
- Basque cheesecake with honey and walnuts.
- Chocolate coulant with vanilla ice cream.
Order a short espresso, keep the conversation flowing… maybe one more glass while the Serra turns gold.
September: Sundays open until midnight
All through September, Sundays we’re open until 00:30 (12:30–00:00) with continuous kitchen. Come for a late lunch, a cool evening dinner—or that Sunday plan that happily runs long.
Three ways to live your Sunday
- Family plan: gentle morning walk → grill lunch → shared dessert.
- Couples plan: sunset route → txuleta for two → cheesecake and a glass of red.
- Friends plan: mini-hike → sharing plates (octopus, txistorra, bacalao) → closing toast.
Book your table at El Vasco and turn your day in the Tramuntana into a non-stop of nature, grill and good wine. We’ll take care of the embers—just choose who you’re sharing them with.
