Restaurant Les Corones
Costa Brava
At a glance
Restaurant Les Corones is a fish-focused restaurant on Avinguda de Roma in L’Estartit, where cooking over live fire forms the centre of the experience. The kitchen combines a Basque approach to grilling fish with an Empordà influence, giving the restaurant a clear regional identity within the Costa Brava dining scene.
Fish from the local coast is handled with careful attention to freshness, heat and cooking time. The grill is also used for quality fish from colder waters, while certain less usual local catches can be prepared by prior request when available. The result is a menu centred on the natural flavour and texture of the seafood rather than elaborate treatments.
The cooking also includes a selection of grilled meats and meat prepared in the Empordà style. Desserts are made in the restaurant or sourced from artisan producers in the surrounding area. The wine list gives particular attention to bottles from the DO Empordà, providing a local match for the seafood and other grilled dishes.
Les Corones has a calm, carefully maintained setting with a relaxed atmosphere and attentive, professional service. Its style suits diners who appreciate unhurried cooking, precise grilling and a meal built around a strong main ingredient. The restaurant is particularly oriented towards an adult audience seeking a quieter gastronomic occasion rather than a casual, fast-paced meal.
Local sourcing is an important part of the restaurant’s approach. Suppliers from the Montgrí area, the nearby coast and the wider Baix Ter region contribute to the kitchen’s connection with its surroundings. The restaurant also works with sustainable local fishing, nearby agricultural products and wines from the Empordà, alongside measures aimed at reducing energy, water use and waste.
The restaurant’s connection with Getaria is reflected in its grilling method and equipment, while the finished cooking remains rooted in the ingredients and food culture of the Empordà. Les Corones therefore offers a focused seafood experience for diners looking for grilled fish, local wine and a peaceful setting in L’Estartit.
