The best restaurants in Split
This captivating and elegant restaurant dazzles with straight shapes and indirect lighting. "Food is art" acts as the motto. Shrimp paté, oxtail ravioli and the gregada fish stew are all a delight. The location with its seaside view is breathtaking.
A fine-dining restaurant with full marks for its thoroughly offbeat and successful combinations. The focus is on lovingly crafted Mediterranean cuisine. A large wine selection, as well as a very good cocktail menu.
The setting in the historic Diocletian Palace is exceedingly atmospheric. Chef Marko Durašević has brought the restaurant into the 21st century with his mix of Japanese and Mediterranean. Of course, the pizza here is also spectacularly topped.
The beautiful terrace on the cliffs stimulates the senses with its 270-degree panoramic view. The delicious cocktails and sparkling wines go well with grilled fish, flavoursome fish goulash or lobster, but the lamb dishes are also excellent.
The proximity of the extremely popular restaurant to the fish market naturally shapes large parts of the menu. The dishes are exciting and creatively implemented. For those who prefer meat, the tender steak is recommended. The desserts are in a class of their own.
The view of the sea from the terrace is incredible, when you look at your plate, the same feeling of happiness sets in. The catch of the day is prepared on the grill, a specialty of the house is cod. The excellent wine selection matches the fine cuisine.
The glass front brings in the water, and young chef Branimir Prnjak's upscale fish cuisine fits in perfectly here. You should try the fine chicken soup. Crab risotto with lemon pearls and spaghetti with fish carcass sauce are also convincing.
In the heart of the old town, the restaurant is run by a very friendly family, and in the evenings it is cosy and romantic on the terrace. We start with chicken pâté with vermouth and pears and mussels in wine sauce. The fish "Wellington" is also interesting.
A casual modern mini-restaurant. Vedran Gotovac likes to play with textures and acidity. Complex dishes inspired by the Mediterranean are put on the plate. The tasting menu changes frequently - depending on the seasonal offer. Beautiful wines.
Through the glass walls of the elegantly decorated restaurant you have a fantastic view of the beach and the island of Brač. Innovative cuisine with bold combinations is the hallmark. The cellar has bottles from smaller wineries from all over Croatia.
It is very pleasant on the terrace with an awning and bright coloured armchairs. Artfully arranged dishes, the pasta is served with mussels and garnished with raw tuna. You can really dive into the dark chocolate mousse.
The stylish restaurant is housed in a beautiful building, the eye-catcher is the huge chandelier. Cocktails such as cherry bellini and wine are a good choice, and small bar snacks, smoked tuna or lamb croquettes are also served.
The terrace - somewhat shielded by the slightly recessed location - exudes a romantic atmosphere. First-class service, good wines and creative dishes complete the picture. In addition to lobster and fresh oysters, there is homemade pasta or risotto.
There is a lot of history in the old walls, it is atmospheric on the terrace. The cellar is well stocked, and with wine you can enjoy tuna pâté, homemade pasta with truffle sauce, steak on crunchy vegetables, or fried fish with beetroot gnocchi.
In the brightly-coloured bistro-style restaurant, the colourful appearance of the dishes is also captivating. The perfect arrangement of the plates surpassed by the clear flavours. Artichoke soup, pork belly, and deconstructed tiramisu are evidence of great skill.
The old wine cellar with vaults has become a popular meeting place for meat and steak lovers. In a cosy, rustic atmosphere, you can satisfy your hunger with braised rabbit or game goulash in addition to grilled meat. Vegan dishes are also available. Good wines.
A family restaurant firmly rooted in the region. Local authentic cuisine, featuring both fish and meat dishes, with a focus on flavour and quality. The delicious family recipes are lovely, such as the apple strudel with vanilla sauce.
Casual bistro-bar atmosphere with panelled walls and shiny floor tiles. There's a good lineup of wines and cocktails. In keeping with the name, dishes like tuna carpaccio, antipasti, or risotto are served peppily on black plates.
The terrace with marina and island world in view is a point of attraction. A Dalmatian classic is beef goulash, which is allowed to slowly sizzle away. But the fish dishes are also top. The sweet and sour strudel dessert is not to be missed.
Characteristic for the house are the red pots with white spots, in which not only plants grow, but also stews simmer away, prepared according to old family recipes. Also worth trying: pasta with truffles and chocolate cake.
