S'ancora - Carta

Estos eran fabulosos platos de comida de restaurante real, no un plato enorme de comida sin buen sabor como en algunos. El plato de mariscos de alguien era enorme y se veía fabuloso.

Bien ubicado en la calle, las 3 tapas que probamos fueron bastante simples, comimos paella del señor del buen goteo, pero los camarones dejaron mucho que desear, parecían congelados. La cantidad escueta. El servicio muy lento e inalcanzable excepto la camarera Elena. Los precios son bastante altos donde están, aprovechando la fama del pueblo.

Mientras los transeúntes echaban un vistazo al menú, sentí ganas de decir "no se molesten". Dios mío. Servicio muy lento. Comida mal presentada y sin guarnición. No ofrecen pan. Y no es que sea barato. Mira, probablemente sea más fácil decir lo que me gustó: el mantel era encantador, el camarero fue amable cuando apareció. No hay nada como un buen restaurante de mariscos, lamentablemente este no lo es. Ver carta

Restaurante muy bueno, excelente servicio. Pedimos el menú de sopa de langosta para compartir y la paella para 2. No solo estaba muy sabroso, sino que también la atención de la camarera fue digna de mención. Muy atenta, sin agobiar, y siempre pensando en el cliente en lugar de en el beneficio. Relación calidad-precio alta en todos los sentidos. También gracias por salir a saludar al cocinero. Para nosotros, este lugar es imprescindible.

The staff at S'Ancora were very helpful in accommodating our family, including two young girls. We had a lovely table, high chair and the waiters were lovely with the children. The menu was extensive and the food very good. Sea bass with black rice, salmon with creamy leek sauce were highlights from the fish menu and the meat dishes were also very good. Given its excellent location on the harbour front and the quality of the food we felt that this was also great value for money.

We had one lunch here on a day trip to Fornells. It was very busy with lots of familities so we were lucky to get a table. We both had pizzas topped with sobrasada and cuixot ham, egg and Menorcan cheese. They were quite large so we had a job to finish them but were delicious with lots of topping. We noticed that they seemed happy to provide ‘doggy bags’ for the people who couldn’t finish them, especially those with children. There was a lovely atmosphere and the waiters, though busy, were pleasant and attentive. It's in a good spot too, right by the harbour. Ver carta

Siempre hemos amado S'Ancora, pero estábamos emocionados de probarlo este año porque ha cambiado de manos y ahora tiene el mismo gerenciamiento/chef que Cuine D'el Pep, un bar/restaurante que hemos visitado muchas veces. Fue todo lo que esperábamos y más. La comida es interesante e impecable. No creo que el menú realmente te lo venda. Es un verdadero sabor de la comida moderna menorquina. Si pruebas el menú fijo, obtienes un poco de todos los entrantes, seguido de un plato principal y postre de tu elección. ¡Se te hará agua la boca! ¡Volveremos allí muchas veces este verano!

This restaurant has everything going for it prime position and smart interior but it hasn’t got management with a clear insight to what is expected. The staff are very relaxed and chatty. I ordered baked sea bass, which came with a tired uninspiring salad and nothing else. The waiter offered to fillet the fish for me and it took him so long that it was cold when he eventually put it on my plate. He clearly was very inexperienced. My husband had hake with a prawn sauce which was fine but unremarkable. This restaurant clearly could do very much better. We should have realised by the lack of clientele and the nearby restaurant being very full that there was probably a very good reason for this!

Sunday 1 September. Thought we would treat ourselves, but Es Pla burnt down a few years ago (last time we were there King Juan Carlos was there, and he paid for everyone in the restaurant, amazing! first time we went as students in 1976, we had to run out before ordering, realising we couldn 't afford it! , couldn 't get into Es Cranc. Walked along the front and settled on Sancora, and it was very good. Coped well with a party of 8 for lunch, with some wanting simple small plates and others wanting the works . Portions were very generous, salads enormous, John Dory for 2 was 40 Euros (typical main course at Rick steins which we love is c£40 and came with veg, we made the mistake of ordering... Ver carta
