La Oliva

What an amazing hidden gem in the castle area of old Ibiza town! They have amazing bread and herbed aioli to start. The goat cheese in puff pastry with honey was a delicious appetizer. For our entrees we enjoyed our steak and spaghetti topped with fresh beratta cheese. I highly recommend getting the macaroon for dessert! It was so damn good!

Im unschlagbaren Ambiente der kleinen Gasse ist das La Olivia zu finden und voll besetzt. Die kleine Karte bietet für jeden (Fisch/​Fleisch/​Vegetarier) Geschmack etwas und es fällt sehr schwer sich zu entscheiden. Wir hatten Vorspeisen und Hauptspeisen, die uns allesamt verzauberten. Abgerundet durch die Weinbegleitung und das Dessert, hatten wir einen super Abend.

Happened upon this place after we had explored the castle and what a find! I am still dreaming about the tuna tartar. It was delicious and my favorite thing. The pasta with calamari and the goat cheese pork were great too. The setting is cute and the waiters were all very friendly, not to mention good looking! This is a must stop if you are in Ibiza.

Poor service. Waited forever for our food but maybe that’s just a normal Spanish thing.
Their black ink squid pasta is really just black wholegrain pasta.
WiFi didn’t work while we ate there.

Gehobenes Restaurant mit traumhaften Ambiente im Herzen von Ibiza Stadt. Die Preise entsprechen der Lage und dem Anspruch. Wir hatten diverse Vorspeisen u.a. Schinken vom Iberico Schwein als Hauptspeise hatte ich ein traumhaftes Steak. Sehr lecker alles, das Ambiente toll. Auf jeden Fall empfehlenswert.

This restaurant is terrific. We had foie gras, lasagna boulonaise, and tuna. Each dish was perfect. The waiter helped us select a white wine and it too was perfect. Service was excellent.

Went in with a large group. Fantastic food, great easygoing staff. Recommend trying the foie gras for appetizer and you have a great many options for entrée /​main course. Tried four of the desserts and they were all quite wonderful as well. Definitely one of top spots on the island.

Preise entsprechen dem gehobeneren Ambiente. Leider wird der Service (und los servicios) dem nicht gerecht. Falsche Wahl!

is a nice place in old town of ibiza. great food and fantastic surrounding

Before I travelled to Ibiza, there was one restaurant which I had to visit namely; La Oliva!
And damn it was worth it.
The atmosphere was great even as the location and the lovely Spanish waiter (okay to be fair. not the French one). The table was a little bit crowded but you can consider it as cozy.
The food was incredible. The Tuna Tartar melted in my mouth and the Brandade of cod (with truffle!) was amazing. Normally I would not be able to have a dessert after that but I am happy I did so. I would describe the citrus dessert as a sweet mango cloud. Sound cheesy but true. I am a fan!

Wow, La Oliva is definitely worth to visit when you are in Ibiza town. Please make a reservation in advance!
We had dinner with 7 girls. The restaurant is serving excellent French cuisine; think of raw tuna tartar, fois gras, steaks with sauce of morilles (mushrooms), crème brulees with lavander etc.
The tables are not too big though but that is in my opinion the charme of the restaurant. I would go for one of the tables outside on the street.
Hopefully you will have one of the Spanish waiters instead of the French ;) they are much friendlier!

Schon etwas Besonderes in Ibiza Ciudad. Ich fasse die Facts zusammen:
— Minimum 40 Euro p. P mit Vorspeise, Hauptspeise, Getränke und Kaffee einplanen.
— Gute Oliven
— Sehr nettes junges Personal, spricht aber nicht durchgehend Deutsch
— Speisequalität (natürlich Fisch ^^) überragend!
— Portionen zu klein, keine Kartoffeln oder Reis dazu.
— stühle in der schrägen Gasse sind etwas unbequem

How different Ibiza Old Town is to San Antonio. This is my second day on the island and after experiencing the clubber hell that is SA yesterday I was resigned to quietly loathing Ibiza and getting back home as soon as possible. A trip round the harbour to the Old Town redeemed the place somewhat, though it’s still tourist central.
La Oliva is a lovely restaurant half way up one of the winding, cobbled streets filled largely with shops selling linen clothes and tourist souvenirs. The food is a nice mix of mediterranean dishes including pasta, fish and meats and it’s all pretty yummy and served in decent portions. The olives they bring out at the start are exceptional — makes sense considering the restaurant name!
The bill for three of us with two courses and a couple of drinks each came to 103 Euros but for the first time during my trip to Ibiza I didn’t feel completely robbed because at least it was nice food. I’d have loved to stay and have pudding but we were on a mission to look around the ancient fort. Maybe next time!
