A 15-Course Tuna Feast Even Non-Tuna Lovers Will Enjoy
When selecting a venue for a group meal, the food preferences of specific members become a crucial factor in the decision-making process.
"Is it okay to accompany the group to a tuna specialty restaurant if I don't prefer raw fish or tuna?" is a practical consideration that arises when choosing a location.
Goldtuna's dinner course is not a composition that repeatedly serves only tuna sashimi. Along with tuna, we offer a diverse range of dishes including grilled items, fried foods, meat dishes, meals, and desserts.
If you have a companion who does not prefer tuna, it is effective to check not only the amount of tuna but also what other dishes are served alongside it.

Understanding the Menu Composition of a Tuna Specialty Restaurant
When visiting a tuna specialty restaurant, one might expect a meal focused solely on tuna sashimi served on large plates. However, Goldtuna has designed a 15-course meal to prevent the dining experience from being biased toward a single ingredient.
This is the grilled mushrooms on a hot plate, the 4th side dish in Goldtuna's 15-course meal.
The dinner course includes cooked dishes, fried items, grilled items, and meal menus in addition to cold sashimi. Customers who love tuna can enjoy various cuts, while those who find a tuna-heavy meal overwhelming can choose other dishes served between the courses.
The core of the 15-course meal lies in the diversity of food types rather than just the number of menu items.
This is ankimo, the 8th side dish in Goldtuna's 15-course meal.

This composition differentiates itself from the method of repeatedly providing only tuna sashimi.
- It includes menus utilizing raw tuna such as sashimi and sushi, as well as cooked dishes such as grilled mushrooms, tteok-galbi, fried tuna, grilled mero, cream shrimp, and udon.
Elements that provide changes in taste and texture, such as ankimo, maki, and ice cream, are placed between the courses.
Therefore, it is designed so that tuna enthusiasts and members who prefer other dishes can dine together at the same table.
This is grilled mero, the 11th side dish in Goldtuna's 15-course meal.
Alternatives for Those Who Have Difficulty Eating Raw Fish
If it is simply a matter of not preferring raw tuna, one can enjoy the various cooked dishes included in the course.
However, if someone cannot eat raw tuna at all, it is necessary to inform us in advance when making a reservation.
This is cream shrimp, the 12th side dish in Goldtuna's 15-course meal.
Upon prior request, Goldtuna provides some menu substitutions with cooked dishes such as tuna steak, within possible limits.
This does not mean an arbitrary change of all menus; since the composition may vary depending on the daily supply of ingredients and kitchen conditions, it is most accurate to confirm during the reservation stage.

Reservation Checklist When Accompanying Someone Who Does Not Prefer Tuna
Even if your companion has different food preferences, there are no restrictions on dining together. However, if there is someone who absolutely cannot consume raw tuna, sharing this information in advance during the reservation process, rather than coordinating after arrival, helps ensure smooth meal preparation.
You can convey the following when making a reservation:
"One person in our group cannot eat raw tuna. Is there a possible menu composition for them?"
Through this request, you can receive prior guidance on the specific scope of support available for the date of your visit.
