El Colmado

El Colmado is located near Palma’s old town and combines a kitchen, bar, and wine shop in one compact space. Wood, shelves, bottles, a few tables. Everything is designed for functionality. Seating is close together but quiet. The kitchen works with fresh Mediterranean products and small, precise dishes. The grilled octopus with paprika and olive oil is one of the staples on the menu. Precisely cooked, clean flavors. The changing small plates also stay close to the market. The wine selection focuses on Spanish producers with a clear signature. The service is direct and attentive. El Colmado is a place for short stays, a glass of wine, a plate, then on through the city. It is precisely this matter-of-factness that defines the character of this establishment in the center of Palma.
