three varieties of smoked fish

Explanation:
I would leave the Italian and put the translation in brackets or italics.
"Tris" means three of something, often used for pasta, where you get a portion consisting of three different kinds of whatever the food is.

Smoked fish trio // Trio of smoked fish

Explanation:
I would just use "trio". This is easily understandable, and is also used quite often in describing dishes. Word order is flexible here in my opinion (as per alternatives above).

Example sentence(s):

"Potato Crepes with a Trio of Smoked Fish"
"Smoked Fish Trio with Apple Chutney"
