Why Try Seafood at All?

Because seafood has a clean, briny taste that’s hard to find in any other ingredient — and you can start with a single oyster for 7 zł. In guest reviews, first-timers most often mention two concerns: unfamiliar flavour and the price of a first order.
The five dishes below are arranged from the most approachable to the most intense — so you’ll know exactly what to order on your first visit.

Where to Start If You’ve Never Had Seafood?

With oysters — the simplest first step: a small portion, a clean taste of the sea, and a price starting at 7 zł per piece.

Try one Gamen № 5 (from 7 zł each) before committing to a dozen. The menu also features a Gillardeau selection (37 zł each) — a French oyster house founded in 1898 in the Marennes-Oléron region.
If oysters feel like too much to start with, try the tuna crudo with stracciatella (79 zł) or pink sea bream in almond sauce (59 zł) — delicate raw dishes with a clean flavour, without the "fishiness" that first-timers worry about.

Why Are Scallops a Turning Point for Seafood Beginners?

Scallops sit right between the gentle start of oysters and the bold flavour of live-fire octopus — making them the dish where most beginners realise seafood is for them. At 85 zł, they’re an accessible step up from a first oyster.

At Seafood House Grill & Wine, seared scallops (85 zł) are served with garlic emulsion, smoked herring caviar, and garlic chips. The natural sweetness of the scallop meets a savoury, gently smoky base — a combination that works even for guests who’ve never tried shellfish before. The texture is firm but tender, closer to a good piece of fish than to anything chewy or rubbery.
Guests single out scallops among their favourites: one reviewer described the scallop crudo as tender and incredibly fresh, alongside praise for the tuna with stracciatella and the octopus with purée — rating food, service, and atmosphere 5 out of 5 (Illia Petrykovets, Google Maps, 5-star review).

Which Dish Best Represents Live-Fire Cooking?

The octopus. At Seafood House Grill & Wine, fresh catch goes onto the live fire on the day of delivery, with no extended freezing stage — and every batch is checked for freshness and origin. The octopus (119 zł, from the "Signature Dish" section) is first cooked sous-vide for the right texture, then finished on the grill by head chef Maksim Charomushkin, with purée, olives, and 'nduja.

It’s also one of the most frequently highlighted dishes in reviews: guests name the grilled octopus among their favourites (Oleg K, TripAdvisor, February 2026).

What to Order for a Truly Special Occasion?

Lobster or a sharing platter from the grill.
The menu runs from lobster roll (140 zł) to the Seafood Grill Platter for two (690 zł), with Kaviar Selection (229 zł) as an add-on.

The menu has a clear progression: from the lobster roll (140 zł) and lobster spaghetti (150 zł), through the signature Lobster Wellington (370 zł, good for sharing between two), to the Seafood Grill Platter (800 g) for two (690 zł). There’s also Kaviar Selection Seafood House (30 g, Kaluga x Amur hybrid) at 229 zł.

What Wine Goes with Seafood?

Dry white or sparkling for oysters and raw dishes; fuller reds like Etna Rosso for live-fire and meat. The sommelier pairs by request, not by default.

For oysters and raw dishes, go with a dry white — such as Martin Codax Albariño or Markus Molitor Riesling — or a sparkling wine, from Cava and Prosecco Bortolomiol to Taittinger. For live-fire octopus and meat dishes, a fuller red works well — like Etna Rosso from Tenuta delle Terre Nere, made from Nerello Mascalese. The wine list goes all the way up to Dom Pérignon 2013/2015 (2,900 zł) and Krug Grande Cuvée (4,000 zł). The sommelier recommends a pairing only when asked and never pushes one — a comfortable setup for guests still learning how to match wine with seafood.

Expert Comment


Maksim Charomushkin
Head Chef, Seafood House Grill & Wine
"To me, live fire isn’t just a cooking method — it’s the main tool in our kitchen. It gives the product the aroma of smoke, a light caramelisation, and real character. I never rely on cooking time alone — I always watch the product itself, its texture, and how it responds to the heat."
