The fish and other seafood are the freshest here – unsurprisingly since Es Port has its own boat and lobster pots. Like most of its neighbours, it does caldereta de llagosta (lobster stew; €65), but less financial outlay goes into a sizzling two-person paella de llagosta (lobster paella; €50). Other local treats include Menorcan prawns, mussels and octopus. Book ahead.
