Casanita, located in Es Pujols, is an Italian contemporary seafood restaurant with over 15 years of history. Most reviews praise its warm, family-style atmosphere, attentive service, and fresh, delicious seafood and pasta, particularly recommending the tuna tataki. However, some negative feedback highlights issues such as mosquito infestations, incorrect course ordering, and slow pacing. Other diners noted insufficient portion sizes, high prices relative to quality, and a recent decline in food standards, citing oily fried items or improperly cleaned shellfish. While celebrated for authentic Italian flavors and hospitality, individual experiences vary regarding value and attention to detail.
Suitable for diners seeking authentic Italian seafood and a warm atmosphere, though those sensitive to insects or demanding high value may want to consider alternatives.
€€Traditional Cuisine, Contemporary
Hidden away in an old house, with an open terrace, right on the beachfront and with the water... almost lapping at your feet! The proposal, overseen by renowned chef Nandu Jubany (Can Jubany, in Calldetenes), nonchalantly offers an informal but very Mediterranean cuisine, very much up-to-date and with interesting international influences. There are also dishes off the menu and a suggestive tasting menu!

Service experiences vary significantly, ranging from professional and attentive to chaotic pacing and rude attitudes, including booking confirmation issues. Value perceptions differ, with many finding prices reasonable, though some report high bills relative to portion sizes. The restaurant suits travelers prioritizing scenic dining and specific local dishes, despite inconsistent service standards.
Suitable for visitors prioritizing sea views and seafood who can tolerate service inconsistencies.
€€€Mediterranean Cuisine
A very pleasant experience and... it overlooks a turquoise sea! Here, under the umbrella of a menu with a good selection of rice dishes and fideuás, they offer a cuisine with a marked Mediterranean flavour, always with interesting daily recommendations. A dish that we liked? Try the Fideuá ciega de pescado, served in a paella pan with cuttlefish, monkfish, scallops, mussels and more.

Es Caló offers stunning Mediterranean views and a breezy terrace, though some areas feature synthetic grass. Food quality is generally praised, with highlights including goat cheese crostini, Iberian ham, fresh seafood, and signature rice dishes. However, service experiences vary significantly; while some guests found it impeccable and attentive, others reported slow pacing, frequent waiter changes, or unfriendly attitudes. Value for money is a major point of contention, with many reviewers citing high prices relative to portion sizes, despite some finding the experience worthwhile. The restaurant is best suited for diners prioritizing scenic ambiance and high-quality ingredients over consistent service or budget-friendly pricing.
Ideal for diners prioritizing sea views and ingredient quality, with managed expectations regarding service consistency and pricing.
