Fodor's Expert Review Konoba Batelina

$$ Pula Seafood Fodor's Choice

This quirky innovative restaurant is considered by many locals—and foodies around the world—to be the best seafood restaurant in Croatia. Run by a family of fishermen, Batelina is popular for its fresh-caught but totally delicious appetizers; specialties include fish tripe brodetto, scampi risotto, shark-liver pâté, bonito tartare, cuttlefish stew, and tuna carpaccio. The best way to experience Batelina's creative cuisine is to sample many of its unique tapas-style dishes. Don't go by the menu: just ask for a little bit of everything and let the chef be creative.
