Having read the reviews below we decided to take our parents there as a special treat as they live here and we live in Mallorca.
The service is diabolical, very very slow!
The food! Compared to the standard of good quality restaurants in Mallorca, El Gusto is very mediocre. Although very well presented its tasteless.
The house rosado wine was like brake fluid quite disgusting actually.
Having had rack of lamb that was un-seasoned, lacked any taste of lamb at all and stuck on a bed of tasteless mashed potato I found it bland beyond belief.
Tried the homemade glass of tasteless cream and chocolate dusting with sprinkled nuts that is passed off as tiramisu and to be honest was disgusting.
Would we return? NEVER! Would we recommend this restaurant? NEVER!
The final bill of over €160 for 4 of us based on what was served up and the poor service getting anything leaves me with only one final comment.
El Gusto! es mi no gusto!...

Excellent food and an excellent price at Euro16.50 c/w a bottle of...

Between us we had goats cheese salad and mussels in leak and garlic for starters. Mains were beef teriyaki and rice and hake on vegetable paella. Both had chocolate brownie for dessert. Now this isn't said without thought but both of us said it is probably the best meal we have had in Spain. Give it a go, you won't be...
