Ca'n Torrat, Barbecue restaurant in Playa de Palma, Spain
Ca'n Torrat is a grilled meat restaurant near Playa de Palma that operates without a traditional kitchen, instead employing butchers who cut meat to order right before cooking. Oak and almond wood fires provide the heat and flavor for every dish that leaves the cooking area.
The restaurant started in 1972 when the Bauzá family began serving food to tourists during horseback tours around Palma. What began as a simple way to feed riders evolved into the established grilling business that exists today.
The restaurant keeps traditional Majorcan cooking methods alive by serving house-made seasoning blends and local bread specialties alongside grilled meat. These local ingredients and recipes shape how people here experience grilling as part of everyday food culture.
The establishment sits a short walk from the beach and opens from Monday to Tuesday and Thursday to Sunday, between midday and midnight, staying closed on Wednesdays. Visitors can walk in without booking ahead, though busy times may mean waiting for a table.
Each cut of meat is prepared by hand according to what guests request, allowing personal control over thickness, size, and portion. This direct handwork between butcher and fire creates a more personal experience than standard restaurant grilling.
