Reviews Summary
Diners rave about the delicious tapas and generous portions, often highlighting dishes like garlic prawns and tender ribs. The restaurant's unique, eclectic atmosphere and friendly, attentive service contribute to a highly positive dining experience.

"This was a very good experience. I wasn't expecting it to be that good. We had the spare ribs, eggplant carpaccio, spicy potatoes and the pimientos. I need to mention, that the spare ribs must be have been pickled as the meat almost fell of the bone. Never had that before. Also, the restaurant had some nice music and the service was good and very attentive."

"We were looking for a tapas restaurant serving pinchos in Palma and made a reservation here based on the score and we’re so glad we did! It truly made us happy. Every single thing we tried was delicious and did not disappoint. I don’t remember the exact names, but the ones with cheese and shrimp were absolutely beyond amazing. Prices were also very reasonable considering the quality. Thank you so much, we had a wonderful dinner!"

"We had reservations at another restaurant, but walk by this charming spot near our hotel and decided to eat here instead. Everything on the menu sounded delicious and we ended up getting a variety of tapas, each of which was truly outstanding. The decor was unique, the music was eclectic and spirited, and the service was exceptional. We would definitely come back here again in the future if we ever find ourselves lucky enough to revisit Mallorca."

The Best Late-Night Eats In Mallorca, Spain
Quina Creu is a great fusion of ‘proper’ restaurant and pintxo bar, popular with locals as much as tourists and a great place to drop in for a late-night nibble. Low-lighting creates a moody vibe, while an eclectic vintage and industrial styling combine with beautiful floor tiles, old movie posters, and books to the ceiling. The mini fillet steak and chips is a firm favourite and won’t put much of a dent in your wallet either.

Again, another popular restaurant in the old town and if you want to eat here I suggest booking, as it does get busy. I've thrown this place in as a suggestion for many reasons. Firstly, it feels like you're in an upper-class restaurant without the pretentiousness of upper-class snobbery.
