El Romero becomes the first restaurant in Spain to achieve 2 FOOD MADE GOOD STARS, the sustainability seal from SRA (Sustainable Restaurant Association), the most representative organization in the global restaurant industry, with over 10,000 establishments.
First restaurant on the island to obtain the MENORCA BIOSPHERE RESERVE BRAND, the sustainability distinction that recognizes businesses on the island that operate following environmental protection criteria while preserving Menorca’s identity and culture.
4 PLASTIC FREE BALEARICS STARS. The PFB certification is a quality environmental seal created to promote the reduction of single-use plastics in the Balearic HORECA sector.
From day one, El romero joins SLOW FOOD – CHEFS’ ALLIANCE, an international network of chefs who, by supporting small producers, defend food biodiversity worldwide.
At El romero, we aim to balance high culinary standards with well-being, health, and environmental respect.
We adapt our gastronomic offerings based on the seasonality of seafood and local produce to serve the best ingredients at all times.
Our vegetarian menus showcase creative cuisine, anticipating the protein transition toward a fairer, more ethical, sustainable, and healthy food model. All our menus are GMO-free, gluten-free from conception, and suitable for celiacs.
Local products, flavors of Menorca
We don’t own a farm or fishing boat, but we’ve always sourced directly from fishermen, farms, and local producers committed to environmental protection and the island’s cultural identity. Over time, this has not only secured us the finest products but also fostered close, trusting relationships that enrich our community.
We serve artisan bread, oils, cheeses, eggs, and organic wines.
Our goal is for over 50% of our vegetables to be certified organic.
All the fish on our menus is wild and proceeds from small-scale local fishing.
We also try to include excellent but “forgotten” fish in our offerings (usually due to the difficulty of cooking them).
We believe industrial farmed fish is currently neither a healthy nor sustainable option.
We work exclusively with tasting menus, allowing us to plan production and reduce food waste.
We buy fresh ingredients daily and prefer to run out of a product rather than compromise quality—or waste food!
We exclusively contract energy from renewable sources, whose origin is certified by the National Commission on Markets and Competition (CNMC).
We serve reverse osmosis water in reusable glass bottles.
Other glass bottles (e.g., sodas) are returnable—last year, we reused over 93% of beverage containers. For non-returnable bottles (like wine), we separate and recycle them properly.
Our certified “plastic-free” policy constantly drives us to eliminate single-use plastic packaging.
