Sa Torre — Restaurant in Palau-sator

100% Recommended. Food 10/10 Staff 10/10 Surrounding 10/10

This is definitely one of my favorite places to eat. Their traditional rice is OUTSTANDING and has been even recognized by the jury of Girona for its perfection (being awarded a certificate of excellence). The “arròs caldós” (“soupy paella”) of vegetables is a “must try”, it is second to none and you can’t go wrong with it. They also have a vegetales paella which doesn’t appear in the menu and I would strongly recommend it too. About the starters, they rely on season ingredients so it may vary on the time of the visit but in short: in winter I am a fan of their calçots tempura (cooked tender inside and crunchy outside, with a homemade romesco sauce - I always ask double sauce). The grilled artichokes are super meaty and flavorful. The desserts are all homemade too, except for the icecreams, I am a fan of the crunchy bread with dark chocolate ganache, olive oil and salt flakes (this is a traditional catalan dessert that it js difficult to find and is doing a comeback)

For non-vegans: I must admit they are also very famous for their “cabra de mar” rice and other meaty and fishy dishes. They even make their own...

This restaurant has provided me with one of my all time most memorable culinary experiences. To start, this restaurant is a deeply authentic, family run and absolutely local establishment that stays open year-round and caters as much to the local community as it does to tourists. Then there is the location, nestled in the defensive walls of one of the most jaw-dropping medieval villages I have yet seen. The place is steeped in history that can be felt in every nook and cranny.

Then there is the food. I cannot recommend the "rabbit rabiosa" highly enough, it is literally one of the most outstanding dishes I have ever tasted. Oozing with authenticity and utterly sublime flavours, it is simply epic. So utterly brilliant that we have returned twice since our first visit to have it again. There are simply not enough words to describe it. Absolute must try for anyone passing by this incredible little village that isn't vegetarian!!

I say this as someone that has worked as a chef and has managed and owned multiple restaurants and hospitality establishments in different parts of the world. . . It really cannot get much...

Muy buen restaurante, aunque el pueblo no tiene nada de vida ni monumentos que visitar.

María, la dueña, de nacionalidad argentina, súper agradable. También el resto de staff, pues aunque algunos sólo hablaban catalán, no lo hacían adrede, sino de manera espontánea por ser su idioma principal (yo lo hablo pero la otra comensal no y fue algo incómodo).

Recomiendo las verduras con salsa romesco y los canelones caseros, muy suaves y tradicionales de la zona.

También el pan con tomate para acompañar, pues es un imprescindible. Añadir que nos pusieron unos picos con fuet como cortesía mientras esperábamos la comida, aunque cobraron las aceitunas del aperitivo que no eran gran cosa (aunque como las pedimos no hay ningún problema pero no merece la pena).

Tenía buena carta de vinos y el lugar se presta a disfrutar un poco más y alargar la velada, pero lamentablemente, llevábamos coche y nos tuvimos que conformar con la copita de rosado que tomé yo (como copiloto). Si el pueblo hubiese tenido zona monumental que visitar, hubiera sido una gran opción para pernoctar y probar algún vinito de la zona, porque la terraza también debe ser agradable. Pero, como dice la DGT... ¡si bebes,...
