The Best Seafood Near Alfred Keller, by the Record

The catch of the day arrives at your table on a large tray so you can point to what you want, which tells you most of what you need to know about this seafood konoba on the southern tip of Istria. The chef is also the fisherman, so the menu follows the tides and the seasons rather than any fixed idea of what a restaurant should serve. Offal turns up in the appetizers alongside prime cuts, treated with enough confidence that it feels natural.

A 1970s Triumph Spitfire convertible sits inside the dining room, which tells you something about this old-school Istrian seafood restaurant. The glassed-in veranda looks straight over Marina Veruda's yacht harbour, and the rooftop bar catches the sunset if you time it right. The kitchen runs on the local catch, grilled, baked, or buried in a salt crust, with Kvarner langoustines a regular fixture on the menu.
