Cassai, Mediterranean restaurant in ses Salines, Spain
Cassai is a restaurant in ses Salines, in the south of Mallorca, housed in a former fisherman's cottage with views toward the Mediterranean Sea and the island of Cabrera. The building has a covered terrace and indoor seating areas on two levels.
The building was originally put up as a simple fisherman's dwelling and served the coastal community for many years before being turned into a restaurant. The wooden framework from that first construction was kept in place during the conversion.
The kitchen follows the island's food habits, working with fish, seafood, and rice dishes that have been part of local cooking for generations. Sitting at the table gives a clear sense of what people in this part of Mallorca eat on a regular basis.
The restaurant sits right on the coast of ses Salines and is easy to reach by car, with parking available nearby. On good days the terrace fills up fast, so arriving early or booking ahead is a good idea.
On a clear day, Cabrera island is visible from the terrace, and it belongs to one of Spain's oldest marine protected areas, reachable only by boat. This makes the view from the table one of the few spots on Mallorca where you can look directly at a national park while eating.
