El Papillo - Speisekarte

Great food with a modern twist. A nice change from the traditional French meal. We enjoyed sharing some plates and the place was full every night we stayed at Kollioure book in advance.

It is such a pleasure to find a restaurant that produces completely innovative yet absolutely delicious food. Things you never expect to work are delicious. Two of the loveliest waitresses made the whole evening a pleasure.

We had a lovely memorable dinner at this place. Fortunately we were able to be seated outside. Everything was great and the waiter helped us with the English translations. The seafood is extraordinary here and so was dessert and the service. Speisekarte ansehen

The food is excellent and the atmosphere too! We are on a road trip across Italy, France and Spain and definitely this little restaurant greatly managed surprise us winning the best meal so far! Even our little 8 months old baby enjoyed the atmosphere! Well...done guys!

We have eaten at El Capillo every year over the last 4 years. We were determined not to miss out on it this year, despite Covid. We are going to remember another great meal here as we suffer a two week quarantine back in Scotland....Jean-Phillipe and his team get better and better. L’annee prochaine!

We came across El Capillo while searching the backstreets of Collioure for lunch to avoid the seaside restaurants. We were delighted with our choice. The menu was inventive with interesting choices and fresh ingredients. The wine selection was also very good and we... enjoyed a good choice of their tapas-style dishes and local wines. Also a good friendly service. A find! Speisekarte ansehen

I hate to write this review because I love this restaurant. We have eaten here many times before; food lovely and service amazing. Last year we ate at El Capillo two nights in a row. Tonight not so much! You look tired guys and...it feels like you don’t really want us at your restaurant. The food was still pretty good but service so slow and inattentive. I know times are tough but please get your enthusiasm back!

We are an elderly (UK) couple and were hungry and tired from the buffet gales. We were greeted most with smiles, advice about the menu and patience with my very poor French. I had graveax followed by beef carbonara, my wife had foi gras, then fish followed by chocolate mousse. The delicacy of flavors was evident, portion sizes were generous, and service was quick and relaxed. Turns out we were the first post-Covid guests. Collioure has a wide range of restaurants but El Capillio stood out. We really enjoyed our visit and glad we didn't happen to have to keep quiet. And we're going again before we go.

We were lucky to get a table without a reservation- all the other outside tables were reserved. Very few choices (five per course), a good sign, and nothing for vegetarians but perfect for gluten free eating. Octopus with harissa and les poisson de flo which...was described as seared/raw small tuna and all its accompaniments were amazing for starters. Main was ‘le cochon du copain’, was rich with wild mushrooms and purée potatoes. Wine is by the (small) glass but also good. Two courses with three glasses of wine: 95€ plus tip, so definitely not cheap. Service friendly but slow. Good street scene to observe while waiting. Speisekarte ansehen
