"The Michelin-starred Palma table of the first British chef to win a star in Spain — book it for light, produce-led Mediterranean tasting menus."
About Marc Fosh
Marc Fosh is the Palma restaurant of the British chef of the same name, who in 2002 became the first British cook to win a Michelin star on Spanish soil and now holds one at this eponymous room. It sits inside the Convent de la Missió, a converted 17th-century seminary in Palma's old town, and trades on light, sun-driven Mediterranean cooking rather than heavy luxury.
It sits among the island's best tables. Compare the two-star Voro, the one-star Es Fum and the one-star DINS Santi Taura, or browse the wider fine-dining picks.
The Kitchen
Fosh cooks a precise, vegetable-forward Mediterranean built on Mallorcan produce, much of it from the restaurant's own farm at Finca Son Mir. The cooking favours clarity over richness — simply constructed but sophisticated plates that let the island's ingredients lead — with playful flourishes like a lobster ice cream served with almond soup. Dinner is a choice of three tasting menus, one of them fully vegetarian.
It is fair value for a starred kitchen: the set lunch menus are the way in, while dinner is the full tasting-menu affair, with most diners landing roughly between €60 and 120 a head depending on the menu and pairings.
The Room
The room is calm and contemporary — clean lines, white walls and soft light inside the old convent, opening onto a courtyard terrace that is one of the loveliest places to eat in Palma on a warm night. Service is polished and unstuffy, the kind that suits a long, relaxed tasting menu. The overall feel is modern and serene rather than grand.
Best for a special Mediterranean tasting-menu dinner
Marc Fosh suits a special Mediterranean tasting-menu dinner — the courtyard terrace makes it a natural anniversary table and a graceful first-date choice, while the polish makes it a confident way to host a visiting guest.

Not for
Not for a quick a la carte bite or a meat-and-potatoes traditionalist — this is a set tasting-menu kitchen of light, produce-led Mediterranean plates, best given a full, unhurried evening.
