Found in Begur just a short walk from Platja de l'Illa Roja beach, the hotel and restaurant Sa Punta is one of those places that not only never disappoint but also welcome you with open arms all year round. It is a rare spot in the Costa Brava indeed. Low season? Winter? Monday? Tuesday? The restaurant is open and you are always received as if they have been waiting just for you to show.

Let’s get the food out of the way first — it is consistently great. The menu is relatively short, only two pages — chef’s suggestions ("Sugerencias") for appetizers and main courses, fish dishes, meat dishes. The menu changes only slightly, with a sprinkling of variety by way of seasonal ingredients and regional delicacies that the chef of Sa Punta incorporates into the menu at every opportunity. You will find fresh coastal fish, prime cuts of Girona meat, the house specialties (steak tartare and duck cannelloni) any day of the year. The dessert menu is similarly short yet tantalizing.

Dining at Sa Punta is a great experience during the quiet winter months when the tourist rush slows down. It is incredibly relaxing thanks to the great wait staff, most of whom have been there for decades. It is very quiet because the beautiful dining room tends to absorb sound into its carpet floors and white linen table cloth. In warmer weather, you can dine on the terrace overlooking the garden and the swimming pool, illuminated at night.

Expect to be treated kindly and attentively. Expect an amuse-bouche and freshly baked bread rolls whose selection changes from day to day to start your meal. Expect to hear your server talk about each dish you are about to enjoy, in Spanish, English and quite possibly in French.

Expect also to be a little intimidated by the extensive, well-curated wine list that focuses on DO Empordā and other Spanish wine regions, but doesn’t shy away from international (read: French) wines albeit with a heftier price tag. Don’t be afraid to ask for advice, as the sommelier would be delighted to help you.

Expect a wonderful evening out at Sa Punta, at any rate.
