Local tip
Makao offers dine-in, takeaway and delivery, so the preferred format can be selected when ordering.

Makao is a restaurant in central Palafrugell focused on sushi and tapas designed for sharing. Its menu brings together two formats that work for relaxed meals with friends or family, whether the table is built around several small plates or a selection of sushi to share. The approach makes Makao suitable for diners looking for something different from a traditional tapas restaurant while keeping the meal social and informal.

The restaurant occupies a charming local space intended to feel welcoming and homely. Its character is centred on shared dining rather than a formal, course-led experience, making it a natural choice for gatherings where diners want to try several items together. The setting suits both local meals and visits to the Costa Brava town of Palafrugell.

Makao offers more than one way to enjoy its food. Diners can eat at the restaurant, arrange takeaway, or use the delivery option. This provides flexibility for an evening in Palafrugell, a meal at home, or a shared order among friends and family. The dine-in setting remains the main expression of the venue, with the food, the relaxed atmosphere and the social nature of the menu working together.

Alongside the main menu, Makao provides a wine selection and a dessert menu. These options allow a meal to extend beyond the sushi and tapas, with drinks and something sweet available as part of the restaurant experience. Menus are presented in Catalan, Spanish, English and French, helping the venue cater to a broad range of diners.

Makao is open for evening service from Wednesday to Sunday, with additional lunchtime service at the weekend. Reservations are available, and the restaurant provides information about ingredients and dishes for people with allergies or intolerances. Diners with specific dietary needs can discuss them with the staff when making a reservation or ordering.

Located at Carrer de les Cases Noves, 57, Makao provides a central Palafrugell address for sushi, sharing tapas and a friendly restaurant setting. It fits occasions that call for a shared meal, including family gatherings, meals with friends and informal celebrations, while takeaway and delivery extend the same menu beyond the restaurant.
