Description

Chef Goran Hrastovčak offers his personal interpretation of contemporary Croatian cuisine through two tasting menus – both also available à la carte – in which meat and fish alternate harmoniously. These are Istrian Fables and Modern Tales: the former menu pays homage to local tradition, while the latter indulges in a few more innovative touches. Also notable is the wine selection, which starts with Croatian labels and then ranges internationally, with nearly 30 offerings available by the glass. Completing the experience is the beautiful view of Poreč's harbour.

Review summary

Spinnaker, located on Poreč’s harbor promenade, specializes in modern seafood cuisine. Reviews highlight exceptional food quality, particularly creative interpretations of traditional dishes and well-paired local wines. The atmosphere is elegant, though some guests note the meal pacing can be slow, taking nearly three hours. Service is generally praised as professional and attentive, but isolated complaints mention unfriendly staff or communication barriers. While most diners find the experience worthwhile, a minority question the value for money, citing high prices relative to ingredient quality. With an average rating of 4.6/5, it remains a top choice for those seeking a refined culinary journey.
