The MAINE Ibiza - Mediterranean Restaurant & Bar — Restaurant in Sant Josep de sa Talaia

What is shame that such a beautiful place put out such average mediocre food. I started with a lovely drink that the bar accommodated perfectly and then moved over to my table, which initially took a little longer to get service and attention because the second setting was there on the table, despite the fact that my reservation was only for 1. The bread, the garlic, the olives, were all wonderful so much so that I asked for my garlic and olives to be packed up to go\nTo a company my appetizer once I was done with them (unfortunately that request was ignored along with a few others throughout the night) The meal started with the octopus and the whipped feta. The octopus was a hit, The fed tasted more like a whipped goat cheese And while delicious, missed the mark on the salty and savory factor that one would expect from a whipped feta and a balanced dish. Additionally , the amount of bread that was offered was nowhere near sufficient for the amount of cheese to the dish, which was why I asked for some of the bread from my bread course to remain uncome home with me. I then moved on to dinner, speaking to the grill master before I order my entree regarding the temperature of the pork. When one orders an "Iberico Secreto" That is advertised as one hundred percent bellota With an enticing name, one expects a flavorful, juicy piece of pork. Unfortunately this was everything but. What arrives was a sloppy piece of pork that was cut into strips, causing it to be completely dried out. Presentation was a zero out of ten, And why anybody would make a conscious decision to take a lovely piece of meat I'm cutted into strips like a children's meal is beyond me. Besides that, the meat completely was devout of salts and seasoning. What I did love with the padron peppers, But again when I asked to take the peppers home they were thrown out. Redemption for the awful main dish was Attempted in the form of a slice of cheesecake; "Basque" cheesecake to be specific. Anyone that has had a good San Sebastian Basque Cheesecake knows that you're expecting a creamy center complemented by lovely tangy and textured joy in this piece of cheesecake. Unfortunately, this too missed the mark completely and what was presented was a dry, solid, dense piece of New York style cheesecake with a burned top. While this was given complimentary, I was SHOCKED to later see an €18 price tag on this awful, plain dessert. All in all I had such high hopes for this place. The reservation team was extremely accommodating with my requests.And the servers handled the evening with tact and grace. What a shame that they had to serve such an inferior product, And apologize for the kitchens consistent shortcomings. How awfully...

We celebrated my birthday at MAINE Ibiza, and it was truly a magical evening! We arrived just in time for sunset, and the view over Las Salinas bathed in golden light was absolutely breathtaking. The atmosphere was everything you dream of on Ibiza — stylish, relaxed, and full of charm.

We started the evening with some incredible cocktails and appetizers — everything was perfectly crafted and beautifully presented. Their wine selection is excellent, and we loved the bottle we chose based on the staff’s recommendation — it paired wonderfully with our meal.

We ended up trying a little bit of everything from the menu — salads, seafood, meat — and every single dish was outstanding. Fresh ingredients, balanced flavors, and generous portions made the experience even more enjoyable.

The staff deserves a special mention: incredibly professional, friendly, and attentive without ever being intrusive. Their service truly elevated the whole experience.

Parking was easy and convenient, and the restaurant itself is stunning — a beautifully designed space with iconic Ibiza vibes that fits perfectly into the Salinas area.

MAINE is a feast for both the senses and the soul — a must-visit on the island. I already can’t...

We had an absolutely wonderful experience at The MAINE! We visited twice—once for a birthday celebration and another time just because we loved it so much. The service was absolutely outstanding, unlike anything we’ve experienced before. The staff were attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure we had a fantastic time. We had one waiter who was incredibly accommodating and made our visits even more special. We had great conversations with him, especially about the European Championship, which added to the enjoyment of our meals.

The food is a true culinary delight. Each dish was beautifully presented and tasted exquisite. From the appetizers to the desserts, every bite was a pleasure. The flavors were rich and well-balanced, showcasing the chef’s incredible skill and creativity.

The ambiance of the restaurant added to our enjoyment. It was stylish and inviting, making it a perfect place for both special occasions and casual dining.

We were incredibly happy to have dined at The MAINE, and we can’t wait to recommend this place to others. We look forward to returning and enjoying another...
