Em’s star rating
Es Balagan is one of those places that keeps you coming back. The Mediterranean-inspired dishes are fresh, vibrant, and full of flavour, with great ingredients and plenty of options to share. The atmosphere is relaxed yet lively, the service is genuinely welcoming, and every visit feels like a long lunch with friends.
Fun fact
The name “Balagan” comes from Hebrew and literally means “chaos” or “a happy mess.” It perfectly reflects the restaurant’s philosophy of filling the table with colourful Mediterranean dishes to share, creating a lively, social dining experience rather than a traditional starter-main-dessert meal. The concept was inspired by years of travel and long summers in Ibiza, where sharing food is at the heart of gathering together.
