    Great Dalmatian food in the heart of Zagreb. Fresh ingredients, great service, casual but yet the food is soo good, you do feel like you're eating in some high end restaurant.

    Very nice and cozy place. There was only 1 waiter, the other one came later around 21:00 so we waited a bit to be served The dishes were delicious except for 1 that was a bit too salty. Overall, would recommend it.

    Please do something about the smoke/food smell in your open litchen. It's a needed investment as the food quality and the service level were overshadowed by it.

    Vorspeise geschmackvoll , Hauptspeise war leider versalzen so das d. Geschmack nicht zu Vorschein kam. Ambiente ist modern stilvoll eingerichtet, jedoch schränkt sehr ein , unseres Tisch war mittig platziert so das links gleich Barstühle standen und rechts Laufgang zur andere Tische .

    The best thing was choice of music :) We arrived at 8pm, ordered at 8.05 and got food at 8.55. Little bit too long for three small portions. Two Tomahawk portions of black pig were different when arrived, one was rare and other well done. The main waiter (probably the owner) was very kind. However we simply waited too long to be served, not only for the mains, but we were not quickly niticed for extra glass of wine, bread etc. The table was next to the wall where used to be some pics (you could see some screws in the wall) but it was empty, which were nit nice either. Plenty of room for improvement.

    Nažalost nisam ni mogla probati kako se ovdje jede zato što restoran organizirao privatan događaj tada i nije osjetio potrebu nas obavijestiti. Tako da u subotu navečer ostali smo bez rezeracije. Sramota

    Food is a chefs poorly attempted nouvelle cuisine, which can fool unexperienced guests into thinking they are eating something original. Chefs attempts at being creative is like giving watercolors to special needs children and calling the results Pollocks art. Unbalanced, disharmonius and unedible taste in some meals ("strawberry desert") is shameful impostery. Thankfully, the prices are low and the wine is fine. Service is inexperienced, uneducated about ingredients, educated only basic etiquette and constantly making observations on guests behaviours, such as commenting of guests smoking in between meals, which can be faux pas only to unexperienced staff who still think their opinion is of any matter or relevance to guest- if they wish to stay relevant, attract relevant younger crowd, be considered nouvelle, eclectic and eccentric, they need to learn how to speak to and accomodate such guests. But as obvious from the crowd who gathers there, they are mostly getting inexperienced younger people who think they are eating something "eccentric", but the truth can not be further. Usually I do bit write reviews, however this "restaurant" is so unbelivable in their attempts to appear something they are definitely not, that I am still in shock and my husband is still laughing at the experience and the managers rudeness.

    Made a reservation online for a family lunch, got a confirmation and everything (event tried to call them, just in case, but, of course, no answer), went there, and the place was closed. No information anywhere that they weren't working. So much about having functional online reservation system. Great job.

    Sjajno mjesto! Savršen odmak, koji je Zagrebu nedostajao. Hrana je sjajna, vinska lista jako zanimljiva, a osoblje je super ugodno i savršeno pristojno. Iako je prostor malen, kao i stolovi, muzika je tako dobro izbalansirana da smo se osjećali potpuno opušteno, uz smijeh i zabavu, bez da smo se morali natjecati s glazbom, a opet i bez onog neugodnog osjećaja da nas svi mogu čuti i da smo nepristojni. Imam samo jednu malu zamjerku, aparat za wc papir u ženskom wcu zapinje, riješite to;)

    Good take on a rather minimalist, urban and small dish offering. Could have a bit more finesse in presentation and punch in flavours. More vegetarian options/adaptations required. Very pleasant service and the sparkling wine recommendation we had was great.
