“ The best seafood I’ve ever had! The Fish Platter I ordered, with seven kinds of fresh seafood grilled to perfection, is truly a seafood lover’s delight like none other! And better yet, you just can’t beat the price! ”
“ Very cute “rooftop” restaurant! Had their shark steak - which lacked a bit of seasoning. But the fries and salad were good. If you’re looking for a place away from the crowds, definitely come here and the price of the food is worth it! ”
“ Ring early in day to reserve table.. especially if a group. (We were a group 8 - 4 couples). Waiter was amazing! He offered up front to put us couples opposite each other and each couple on separate bill . Brilliant! They take cash or card. Food was outstanding. House wine was excellent and a generous pour. Atmosphere was fantastic upstairs on the terrace area. Toilets clean and tidy. Prices really reasonable (aka FANTASTIC! ) Highly recommend! ”
“ 5 Stars- Lovely food and service! We walked in after the beach without a reservation. The staff were able to fit us in after a short wait. The courtyard setting is lovely and private, away from the craziness of the crowds. We ordered the fried squid with chips and the black risotto with seafood (our go-to dishes in Croatia). Both were delicious and of a good size serving. Good honest food at reasonable prices (for the Old Town in peak tourist season). The waiters were busy but attentive and friendly. The food came out of the kitchen without much delay. Thank you! ”
“ Nice restaurant with a friendly service. We tried delicious sardines served with french fries, salad and a glass of white wine for 19 eur which is a very good deal. We also ate tasty cevapcici with ajvar sauce and french fries. Worth recommending. ”
