Oli Mare Fish & Wine – Seafood Restaurant in Poreč, Istria

A kitchen that begins at sea

Oli Mare is a family company that has worked in fishing and shellfish farming on the Istrian coast since 1990. For more than thirty years we have harvested fish, mussels, oysters and clams from the Adriatic, and then we opened our own fish restaurant in Poreč serving only our own catch and our own shellfish — from sea to plate, with no middlemen.

At Oli Mare we cook homemade Istrian specialities made from our own fish and shellfish — dishes everyone visiting Istria and Croatia should taste at least once: grilled daily catch, gregada fish stew from an old fishermen's recipe, octopus in sauce, scampi and lobster buzara, fresh oysters and mussels, tuna tartare, sea bruschettas, homemade pljukanci pasta with seafood and fisherman's potatoes — all with Istrian olive oil, truffles and a glass of Malvazija or Teran.

Oli Mare restaurant blog, Poreč

Stories about fresh Adriatic fish, Istrian truffles, homemade pasta and fishing tradition — everything behind each plate at our seafood restaurant in Poreč, Croatia.

Catch of the day in Poreč – fresh Adriatic fish, every day

The sea writes a new menu every day. At Oli Mare we serve the catch of the day – fresh fish our fishermen brought in from the Adriatic that very morning.

Oli Piat – a cold seafood platter straight from the Croatian sea

The finest treasures of the Croatian Adriatic on one plate – fresh oysters, raw Adriatic scampi and clams. A cold platter fishermen have enjoyed for centuries, right after coming home from the sea.

Sea Bruschetta – our house special with anchovies, octopus and prawns

Six bruschette on crisp bread: two with anchovies, two with octopus and two with prawns. A fishermen's tradition served in a modern way, €18.00.

Tuna Tartare – fresh tuna, avocado and Mediterranean tradition

Fishermen once ate the finest cuts of fresh tuna right after the catch, with only olive oil and lemon. Our tuna tartare blends that tradition with a modern touch. €24.00.

Octopus in the Pot – polenta, tomato sauce and a Croatian fishermen's story

On the Croatian coast it was said that good polenta was worth as much as a good catch. Octopus in the Pot is slow-cooked in a rich tomato sauce. €27.00 per person.

Gregada – the oldest fishermen's dish of the Croatian coast

Gregada was born on fishing boats: fish, potatoes, onion and olive oil, slowly cooked into one pot. Today it is our house special for two persons.

Black Wave – squid ink pasta with seafood, our signature dish

Black pasta made with cuttlefish ink and fresh seafood blend into a plate that carries the authentic taste of the Adriatic. Served per person.

Golden Prawns – Adriatic prawns with Istrian truffles

Fragrant truffles from the forests of Motovun and fresh Adriatic prawns served on traditional polenta – where Istrian land meets the sea.

Pljukanci Oli Mare – handmade Istrian pasta with prawns and truffles

Hand-rolled pljukanci, fresh Adriatic prawns and Istrian truffles – a dish that tells the story of Istria, its forests and its sea.

Lobster buzara – the most festive dish of Adriatic cuisine

Lobster prepared the classic buzara way, with olive oil, garlic, white wine, tomato and parsley – a symbol of the richness of the Adriatic.

Fisherman's Potato – the flavours of the Croatian coast in one bite

Along the Croatian coast it was said that no fisherman's table was complete without fish, potatoes and Swiss chard. That is where our starter comes from.

Keeping the traditions of the sea alive – spear fishing and respect for the Adriatic

Although we live in modern times, part of our catch is still taken the old way – with a fishing spear, with patience and deep respect for the sea.

Everything started with the sea – the family story of Oli Mare

Our Emil has been diving since he was a child. In 1990 he founded his own company and has dedicated his life to fishing and shellfish farming ever since.
