    Delicious food in a beautiful surrounding. Try the steak and oxtail. Good selection of local wines too.

    Come here and avoid the tourist trap-restaurants on the water. Get the three course daily menu. Delicious and fresh.

    Amazing dinner experience here, very high quality food and all quite surprising (in a exciting very good way) — probably the best meal you can have in this island

    Best restaurant in Hvar- hands down. Swordfish carpaccio, truffle sauce homemade ravioli, asparagus gnocchi and hvarska fish stew are a must.

    Everything we had was incredible. risotto, ravioli, lamb and stew - would recommend them all

    Make sure you hit an evening with a chef special menu. Not only do they put the best to that but you also get a good deal price wise - should be below 30 Euro.

    Limited characters cannot express my disappointment. Medallions with gnocchi should be called the bland and undercooked. All other food=average. Prices=steep.they charge a “table cover” for olive oil

    Nothing. Do not go here. There is a cover charge for the olive oil and bread. I have never seen that before. The food was terrible.

    Bland food served in exciting china. The beef was good, but the scallops, sea bass, chicken, clams and appetizers were boring and not worth the price. Very disappointed.

    A localização é muito agradável. Boa comida e bons vinhos croatas e um atencioso staff... Sem duvida um dos melhores restaurantes de hvar. O único se é mesmo o preço...um pouco caro.
