Tuna Tartare – fresh tuna, avocado and Mediterranean tradition

Tuna Tartare is our house special at €24.00, a dish that shows just how elegant fresh fish can be without a single unnecessary ingredient.

Fishermen once tasted the finest cuts of fresh tuna right after the catch, with nothing more than a few drops of olive oil and a squeeze of lemon. Inspired by that Mediterranean tradition, we prepare our tartare from carefully selected fresh tuna, hand-cut so the texture stays meaty rather than mushy.

A modern touch comes from creamy avocado, whose softness balances the intensity of the fish, while olive oil, lemon and fresh sprouts round off the flavour. It is served with grilled toasted bread for crunch and a light smoky note.

Tuna Tartare pairs beautifully with a chilled Malvazija, a Chardonnay or a glass of sparkling wine, and as a light starter it is the ideal introduction to a main course from the catch of the day. Guests who love lighter, summery cuisine often order it alongside Sea Bruschetta and a glass of wine on the terrace.

A blend of tradition and contemporary flavour that highlights the natural quality of a top-shelf ingredient – exactly what we look for in every dish at Oli Mare Fish & Wine in Poreč.
