FORN de Sant Joan

After a week of trying, high-end tapas places in Palma Forn went to the top of my list, the atmosphere is wonderful both warm and hip at the same time. Wonderful flavors and presentation in all of our dishes. Service was very attentive and not rushed at all, allowing us to have a very relaxing lunch. The medium sized wine list has a few gems along with a nice selection of local wines and wines from the Peninsula. A small but well chosen champagne list. Definitely will be returning here on my next trip.

Great Service just walked in as we didn't book . It looked so nice from outside. They managed to get us a table upstairs amazing place just off the waterfront tucked away in a beautiful lane
Service was fantastic. The food was amazing . We had tapas with a modern twist that was elevated to a Michelin Star standards never had tapas like this anywhere in Spain. little gem of a place. We will definitely be back on our next visit.

The food was amazing! We ordered a few starters and four main courses — all beautifully prepared, bursting with flavor, and made with fresh ingredients. The atmosphere was cozy and slightly elegant, but the restaurant is in the basement. I would have preferred a street-level table, not the last one by the kitchen with waiters passing nonstop - but ok, we could not change anything. The -1 star is for a rude waitress: we politely asked if we could have a simple side salad, and her only reply was ‘no’ before walking away. I understand it wasn’t on the menu, but out of courtesy she could have at least tried or pretended to ask the chef . Unfortunately, her abrupt tone continued throughout the dinner. A definite miss from the staff, and a real pity for a great restaurant.

The food was out of this world! 10/10 recommend this to anyone who comes to Palma! The service was AMAZING made even better by Samuele who was great! Will be back here in a heartbeat.

We had lunch at Forn de Sant Joan and it was excellent. The crab pasta was the standout — super fresh crab and full of rich flavor. The octopus dish was also outstanding, perfectly cooked and seasoned. We started with the ceviche cones, which were bright, fresh, and really well done.

The setting is stylish but relaxed, and the service was friendly without being too formal. A great spot for a long, flavorful lunch in Palma — would definitely go back.
