Vento di Mare

Silesia


The 'Sea Breeze' blows a pleasant, fishy scent over Opole's Rynek, serving high-quality seafood dishes from various European countries lapped by the Mediterranean. Those dining a deux can order seafood paella studded with squid, mussels, prawns and white fish. There's also a strong selection of seafood pasta.
