The story
At Unic, chef David Grussaute and sommelier Daniela Petercean have built a restaurant that feels both of the island and entirely its own. Located within Migjorn Ibiza Suites & Spa in Playa d'en Bossa, Unic approaches its tenth year with a calm confidence that recently earned it a Michelin star.
Grussaute, a French chef born in Bordeaux, carries a career shaped by stints at Relais & Châteaux properties and kitchens in France, Africa, and Scotland. At Unic, he synthesises those influences into a cuisine that the restaurant describes as "cutting-edge" yet rooted in Ibiza's traditions. The phrase that recurs most on their website is "0 km by conviction": Grussaute works with small local growers, farmers and fishing guilds to source ingredients that might otherwise be forgotten. The result is a menu that changes with the season and tells a story of the island through each plate.
That commitment to local produce extends to the wine cellar, where Ibiza's own winemaking tradition takes pride of place alongside Spanish and international denominations. Daniela Petercean, sommelier, curates pairings that respect the kitchen's focus on local flavours.
Diners choose from three distinct tasting journeys. The Unic Menu (€165, 2026 season) leads with a prelude of Xeixa tartlet and porc negre "fromage", moves through sea – posidonia dashi with Ibizan red prawn, tuna with wild mustard – and land: porc negre with carob noodles, Ibizan kid with local cheese. The sweet landscape includes fermented honey and fresh flowers. A vegetarian alternative is available.
For those preferring a plant-focused experience, the Ibizan Garden Menu (€145) celebrates the island's vegetables and foraged ingredients, with dishes like salicornia curry and celeriac carbonara with ceps cream. And the "La Xanga" Tasting Menu rounds out the offering, described by one guest as "impressive" and "magic".
The cooking is precise and layered, balancing French technique with Mediterranean cuisine – a style that feels contemporary but never tricksy. Each course respects the ingredient first.
Unic occupies a light-filled space within the resort, with outdoor seating and a calm, modern aesthetic. It serves dinner Wednesday to Sunday, and welcomes private parties. The atmosphere is polished but warm, matching the kitchen's ambition without pretense.
The Michelin star, awarded for the 2026 guide, confirms what regulars already knew: Unic is one of Ibiza's most compelling dining destinations. The inspectors praised "high quality cooking" – a fitting nod to a restaurant that builds its reputation on produce, technique, and a deep sense of place.
Whether you come for the La Xanga menu or the full Unic experience, you leave with a clearer taste of what this island can offer.
