Fisherman by Rafał Koziorzemski

Fisherman by Rafał Koziorzemski is a seafood restaurant in Villa Sentoza at aleja Grunwaldzka 89 in Sopot, about 300 metres from the beach. It is classed as fine dining and is recommended in the Michelin Guide, and the chef's name is part of the restaurant's identity. The cuisine centres on Baltic fish and seafood, with preparations that aim to show off freshness and local sourcing in a refined style rather than a rustic one. The listing names Baltic fish and seafood as the signature, so visitors can expect a menu that changes with the catch, including species such as cod, flounder, herring, pike-perch and shellfish, served with seasonal vegetables, sauces and garnishes. Prices are in the upper band for the Tricity, and a full dinner with wine typically costs several hundred złoty per person, though a shorter lunch is more modest. The villa setting gives the restaurant a more private and elegant feel than the seafront cafés of Sopot, with a calm dining room, careful service and tables spaced for conversation. Dress is smart casual. Noise stays low to moderate, and the atmosphere suits couples, celebrations and food-focused travellers. The wine list leans toward whites and sparkling wines that match fish, with a selection of Polish and European bottles, and the staff can advise on pairing. The restaurant has a recorded rating of 4.6, which is high for the area. The phone number is +48 58 520 48 62, and booking is advisable, especially for weekend evenings and the summer season from June to August, when Sopot's pier, beach and festival crowds fill the town. A reservation several days ahead is usually enough outside peak weeks, and longer for groups. Sopot's Monte Cassino pedestrian street is nearby, and the Sopot railway station on the SKM line is a short distance away, which suits visitors travelling from Gdańsk or Gdynia.
