Restaurant Elkano Getaria Reviews
Simply does not live up to its reputation
This restaurant suffers from impersonal service and an inattentive sommelier, who openly criticized the local wines on his own wine list. The quality of the seafood is high, but we were surprised that there were absolutely no vegetables to be found
Getaria + Elkano = a lovely day
We were at Elkano for lunch two weeks ago and are still talking about our time there. We sat on the upper terrace and enjoyed the view over Getaria. Side note: lovely town to explore. Beautiful church and I recommend stopping in the newly renova
You will not leave underwhelmed by dinner service.
Imagine a vertical fish tasting-- same fish two different depths. Wine service was also dynamic beyond seamless pairings... I enjoyed a side by side of Rivera vs. Rioja. Staff encouragement had me enjoying all parts of my seafood. Penchants and dieta

Special occasion dining
We came here as a family of four adults with hearty appetites and a liking for good wine, for a "special occasion" birthday. Of course, it took some planning, pre-booking and being on a wait-list for the session we wanted. This all worked o
Amazing!
This was the ultimate fish experience! Great place to be, fish is really good, staff is very accurate and friendly. The wine pairing was amazing. No, itโs not cheap, but you really should go here! Amazing!
Fresh and fabulous
Fantastic fresh produce treated with respect and magnificently cooked. Service was amongst the best on a month long trip of Spain, sommelier a little grumpy and arrogant but the rest of the staff made up for it.
Amazing dinner at Elkano.
The restaurant is a short drive from San Sebastian along the coast. There's a parking lot just past the restaurant down by the sea. The wine list is long - the sommelier unfortunately wasn't there (on a Saturday night?), so we ended up having to ch
Michelin star catastrophe.
I have no idea how this restaurant got a Michelin star but since eating here I will never trust the Michelin rating again. The restaurant is decorated not unlike a common Red Lobster (in the United States) with fake helms and model ships hanging from
Our last lunch in basque country was Elkano.
Touted as a the world best 16 restaurant, I was pretty excited. Especially for the famed turbot. We had dined 4 days earlier at Asador Extebarri which blew us away so we were ready for round 2. We ended up ordering a la carte which was fine. Eve
hated it.
We were so looking forward to Elkano. It ended up being the worst meal of our Foodie trip. Super dissappointing. Also setting was as bad as the food.

Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Restaurant Elkano Getaria at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Restaurant Elkano Getaria page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* EternalAnt36, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* EternalAnt36 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to EternalAnt36 for any questions Peter may have as EternalAnt36 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* EternalAnt36 now uses their connections at Restaurant Elkano Getaria to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If EternalAnt36 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, EternalAnt36 receives the $200 reward which is credited to EternalAnt36's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Restaurant Elkano Getaria!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
