“ A local hidden perl serving great seafood The staff is skilled and friendly and the food is fresh and tasty. I managed to eat the whole bowl of Dagnje na buzaru (local specialty you should definitely try). Shrimps were also well prepared and coupled with the Dalmatian potato and Swiss chard. Malvasia white vine they serve paired nicely with everything. At the end we had some pannacotta and chocolate muss that justified the expectations. We will come back for sure. ”
