Pri Mari — Restaurant in Upravna enota Piran / Unità amministrativa Pirano

When we travel (often) I spend a lot of time researching to find unique and special spots for dinner serving great food without pretense; not easy. Pri Mari is exactly the type of place we enjoy. It’s not very big and quite simple in terms of atmosphere. There’s no amazing seaside view but what it does have in abundance is fresh well prepared seafood and other local dishes.

We began our meal by sharing a bowl of steaming pasta with fresh shavings of black truffles-delicious. For the main, fresh grilled whole fish, Branzino, for two which was expertly filleted table side and served with some sautéed spinach and potatoes. We shared a bottle of local white wine recommended by the server as well, which like the wine across Europe was very reasonably priced. Food was fantastic as was the chocolate (mousse) tart we had to finish off.

The only knock is the lack of AC-even on a cooler day the small space can feel a bit close, so dress in lightweight clothing and you’ll be just fine.

Absolutely superb overall and special spot...

So I said so it is it possible to eat here she answer you have to wait, we wait half an hour until She brought the menu and we could sit, we order and the food took 1 hour and 30 min to arrive to the table, when I ask the very rude lady she shout at me infront of the clients saying it haven't been 1 hour and a half. We were very disappointed with the behave of this woman as we were surprise as how at her age you could be that rude plus how could you treat your clients in that way. I do not recommend this place as we weren't the only ones complaining about the...
