My favorite daily go to restaurant. It isn’t a fancy place, but it’s great, I lunch there 2-3-4 times a week here the food is always fresh and made in tasty homemade way, from simple pasta, fish and meat dishes to more elaborate things. You can eat a bit of anything here but everything is super tasty. Friendly waiters that take good care of you and the prices are just so fair and your seriously get a lot for your money. It’s a no brainer when in Pula.
We have been in Croatia for a month and eating out every day. This restaurant is my favorite so far! The food was just superb. The beef carpaccio was the best I ever tried and my girlfriend said her ravioli was the best she ever had. The service was top-notch and the atmosphere with the fireplace was perfect. I also had Istrian steak with gnocchi. It was a lot of food for a reasonable price.
5 stars! Edi and his team serve delicious food... Simply freshly caught local fish. Just ask what's available for the day and you will be delighted.Aside from the produce, EVERYTHING on the menu is made here, from the bread to the cakes without exception.The cakes! The pancakes are perfect and lots of Istrian wine to try. The Istrian Prosecco was particularly memorable.Sitting on the balcony after the sun goes down eating delicious food and local wine, heaven.
Very delicious meal! Even the olive oil and bread we had while waiting was really good. From the entrance you can't guess the interior, but it's cozy and nice. Reservation maybe is recommended because we were lucky to get the last one table out of two on a Saturday noon.
Great option for seafood. Ample parking and has no issues getting a party of 7 seated right away for lunch.
Went with a group of 6. The wait staff was super helpful and friendly. Great service. The seafood was so fresh and tasty. Their squid especially the stuffed squid was AMAZING. Highly recommend the place. Great experience
Great see food, kind personel.It was just a bit warm inside (March) - heating was quite high
very good food, nice interior, reasonable (for 2023 Croatia) pricing, the service is not very friendly but I think it's either the usual Croat approach or a result of a language barrier
