Restoran Konoba Martinac

Addres: Ul. Alesandra Paravije 7, 23000, Zadar, Croatia
Another restaurant in the old town area, recommended by locals for its fresh and delicious seafood. Unfortunately, there may be mosquitoes in the outdoor seating area.

The appetizer plate has fresh and tasty shellfish in the top right corner, a refreshing cuttlefish salad in the middle, and shrimp, fish roe, and tuna on bread in the bottom right. The bread is soft and fragrant, and the seafood is fresh. It all mixes together like a seafood medley, and the seaweed in the middle adds a crispy texture. In short, everything is delicious, and everything is so good.

Seafood pizza with plenty of sincerity, thin and crispy crust.

Thick and short noodles paired with creamy and savory seafood sauce, it’s super satisfying.
