Description

Mauricio Gastroteca is a restaurant on the upper floor of the Mercado de l'Olivar in Palma, combining Spanish cuisine made from fresh market produce with the charcoal heat of a Josper oven.

Cuisine & Produce

The Gastroteca's core philosophy comes straight from its own words: "The simplicity of the product, founded on its quality, in respect for the raw ingredient." What arrives at the table is sourced directly from the market one floor below — fresh, local ingredients that travel no further than the kitchen. The defining instrument is the Josper oven, a closed charcoal grill-oven whose smoky heat gives the meat dishes — steaks above all — a character of their own. Alongside outstanding meat dishes, the menu features charcuterie and cheese boards as well as tapas. Homemade desserts round off the experience, with the ensaimada deserving a special mention, and a carefully curated wine list completes the picture.

Groups & Special Occasions

The Gastroteca has established itself as a go-to address for corporate dinners and group events. Parties of around forty have been handled smoothly and with consistent service throughout. Each course is explained at the table — what is being served and where it comes from. Chef Mauricio and his partner Pedro are the hosts who ensure guests feel welcome from the moment they arrive.
