From Sparrow’s dinner menu, the Tuna Tartare is a fresh, vibrant shareable to start things off, $28.
About the Dish
This tartare is built on fresh cut Hawaiian grade #1 ahi, cubed and dressed with sesame oil and soy sauce. We fold in organic serrano peppers for a little heat, green onions, and avocado, then serve it with taro chips for scooping. The sesame and soy give it a savory backbone, the serrano brings gentle warmth, and the avocado keeps every bite cool and creamy. The taro chips add a crisp, salty crunch that makes it fun to share around the table. It is clean, bright, and exactly the kind of fresh start that suits a warm Kirkland evening, light enough to open a meal but interesting enough to keep coming back to.
What to Drink With It
Raw ahi loves something crisp and lively. The Rombauer Sauvignon Blanc is a fresh, citrusy match, and if you want bubbles the Veuve Clicquot is a celebratory pour with the avocado and taro chips. More options live on the Sparrow beverages menu.
