Restaurants
Vila Kaliopa, Vis Town
This enchanting restaurant
is set in the midst of an elegant
sculpture garden. The fish could
not be fresher, and the service
is every bit as stylish as the
surrounds (see p87).
Vila Kaliopa, Vis Town
Vila Koruna, Mali Ston
Dine on oysters and mussels
plucked straight from the waters
in front of the restaurant. With
fish and shellfish this fresh, you
may prefer them to be served
simply, but the restaurant is
equally adept at conjuring up
dishes with that extra touch of
flair (see p97).
Adio Mare, Korula Town
This bustling seafood
restaurant is located in the old
quarter of Korula Town, close to
the reputed birthplace of Marco
Polo. Fragrant smoke billows
from the fish grill, beckoning
in the crowds – but
despite the volume
of diners, the
restaurant manages
to maintain the
quality, and few
leave unsatisfied
(see p97).
Fish platter, Nostromo, Split
For a guide to restaurant price ranges See p69
Zlatna Ribica, Brodarica
Business types flock here to
impress their clients, and it is
easy to see why. Fresh fish is
the speciality of this upscale
restaurant, with a feast of
langoustines, grilled platters and
brodet (fish stew served with
polenta) complemented by fine
wines and a stunning view over
the island of Krapanj (see p79).
Foša, Zadar
The interior is nothing
special, but the location – by the
sea, looking up towards Zadar’s
old town walls – is fabulous.
The terrace is a divine place to
relax and enjoy plump grilled
squid on a warm day (see p79).
Stellon, Split
Fine restaurants are thin on
the ground in Split, but this
popular bolthole in the Bavice
complex manages to please
many tastes. For those not keen
on seafood, there’s steak with
blue cheese and truffle sauce, or
for lunch, pizza baked in a woodfired
oven (see p87).
Nostromo, Split
Nostromo is the best place
to eat in the centre of town. It’s
just by the fish
market, so the
seafood is about as
fresh as it gets. The
decor is light and
airy – a refreshing
change from nautical
theming (see p87).
