Located in the central and floral Palma promenade, RAMblaBAR is one of the culinary jewels with which Ramón Andreu, owner of the Tast group, delights patrons and occasional visitors. A unique New York-style venue that exudes glamor on all four sides, the watchword of any of the group's establishments.
The original portraits of film and music legends on exposed brick walls, leather chairs and benches and fascinating vintage lamps by Gordiola give the restaurant an enveloping and welcoming atmosphere. Some suggestive labeled mirrors delimit the magical corner of the bar, inviting us to enjoy a vermouth or a cocktail, while its tempting blackboards “sing” pinchos, portions and tapas.
The attractive open kitchen in which Mauro Castro and his team demonstrate their good work shows that the star of the house continues to be the grill, through which different cuts of meat of extraordinary quality pass. Although in this gastronomic space there are options for all tastes, pockets and occasions; its menu includes the most popular classics along with attractive novelties and appetizing vegan alternatives. It also offers a competitive menu of the day and take away, so recurrent in the situation we live in.
The suggestive RAMblaBAR bar is the ideal place for a good tapas accompanied by vermouth on tap or enjoying a quiet after-dinner cocktail.
Ángeles López and her second, Elitsa Dimitrova, are in charge of the service in the dining room, giving unbeatable attention and giving very good advice when choosing a menu and pairing.
The magnificent candied artichoke flower, the undisputed star of the menu, with its delicate and tender petals sprinkled with fleur de sel and EVOO, came to life thanks to priceless crunchy bacon cubes: a true delicacy.
The succulent appearance of the artichoke flower with the crispy bacon speaks for itself.
We completed the starters with a delicious grilled octopus: a subtle spicy touch of sobrasada enriched the tasty mashed potato that served as the base for the tender and juicy octopus leg, which was very grateful for its time on the grill.
Grilled octopus on sobrasada puree: a delicious starter ideal for sharing.
We could not resist trying the appetizing rice from senyoret a la llauna, with cuttlefish and fortunately "desecrated" by some tasty prawns. The delicious rice, with an intense flavor and slightly honeyed, was served perfectly as well as the seafood that accompanied it.
The magnificent rice dishes a la llauna are one of the most applauded additions to the menu.
We irrigate such excellent elaborations with one of the great house wines, El Columpio, a red oak from Mallorca, with an intense aroma and unctuous mid palate.
A refreshing assortment of seasoned fruits and an exquisite homemade egg custard rounded out the exceptional lunch.
Nothing better to finish off a copious lunch than a chosen assortment of fruits.
The delicious homemade flan, a classic, says a lot about the quality of the restaurant.
In RAMblaBAR, an essential in Ciutat, the enjoyment begins with a spectacular space that makes us travel to The Big Apple and continues at the table, where culinary satisfaction is guaranteed thanks to a kitchen that pampers the product and prioritizes quality. The icing on the cake is Ángeles and Elitsa, who go out of their way for their satisfied clientele. All our thanks to both of them for such a gratifying experience and our sincere congratulations to the chef and kitchen staff for their extraordinary work.
We will be back shortly to honor your famous embers by tasting a succulent Porterhouse or some tasty sweetbreads.
