Mena Restaurant

Restaurants and gastronomy

Our beloved restaurant was opened in 1959 by Mr. Diego Mena Llorca and María Cuesta Llidó, together with their children Diego Mena Cuesta (alma mater), María and Vicenta. At that time it was a hut made of reeds. In 1960 it already had a covered part and the rest was still made of reeds. At different heights, as the cliffs left us.

In our first years, we prepared our paellas in the open air... Imagine how complicated it was to cook with firewood in the open air, as you know the wind that blows around here.

Diego Mena Cuesta together with his wife Josefa Larrosa Navarro created the third generation that is at your service and delivery, Diego, Maria, Monica and Natividad.

Our boat, as we usually call it, is located right on the cliff, at the end of Les Rotes. Every day we set sail with new clients and friends whom we like to make feel at home... As the founder used to say, the best place to eat is undoubtedly at home and then at this one.
