Eat Like a Chef: Dieter Samijn of Bar Boulud’s Food Guide To Ibiza, Spain
"A tucked away, "cult restaurant" where you need a reservation or you're "not getting in, even if you're a superstar," this is where I find what I believe to be the best fish soup I've ever had, and the owners "just do what they have to do and don’t change anything." - Marguerite Imbert

Unbelievable lunch spot. Kind, attentive service. Gave us a same-day slot for 11.30 which was hugely appreciated. Excellent dry white wine. Delicious white fish. Loved it.

I honestly don't know where to start. A setting of serene beauty. A restaurant of astonishing simplicity. No menu just the freshest of fish and crisp salad is delivered to your table with the minimum of fuss. Make sure you have the fisherman's coffee it's a cure-all for any malady, I had a cold. A memory that will last when other great meals fade. Highly recommended.

El Bigotes in itself is a more than valid reason to visit Ibiza. The setting is unique, the food is fantastic and authentic, the staff are brilliant and superfriendly! It was an adventure to get the reservation but worth every second.

It was recommended by a friend, so glad that we drove all the way for an early lunch. Great food at its simplest, no menu, just a plate full of freshly grilled fish and a salad, delicious. So good that we ordered another serving of grilled fish. For anyone arriving later for lunch, there is the fish soup, which we heard is amazing, so we will definitely be coming back to try that. No nonsense, simple, delicious food and attentive service, highly recommended.

Such a beautiful little restaurant tucked away yet still bustling! We were lucky enough to get a table for two early doors, the waiter was so friendly and let us into a few recipe secrets in Spanish. It was amazing watching them prepare everything so authentically. The water is crystal clear right next to you and perfect for a post-meal refreshing dip. Bring lots of cash and tip hard!

Very nice „hidden“ location. We really enjoyed the amazing food and the friendly, funny and super good staff.
It worth it to do a reservation (I would recommend that) and have some fish direct on the water line.
Don’t forget to try the „fisherman‘s“ coffee after food!
