Bevanda

Reviewed By janicepk - Annapolis, Maryland

This is a lovely setting and in off season we were amongst the few patrons. The service was quite good although at times the waiter was hard to find. Our appetizer was an amazing platter of fresh, raw fish with a beautiful presentation- little English was spoken and we had them choose- but the price was very high- buyer be ware. The sea breen fish was delightful- we chose our pieces to be cooked.

This seafood restaurant has a great variety of properly cooked fish and see Tod varieties. We have a diverse set of spritzers with great taste and presentation.
Very attentive service, very good list of wines
This is a must visit, if you are travelling anywhere from Opatija and beyond.
It is expensive but worth the quality.
Don’t miss the risotto and ask for Batman!
We will be back!

Delicious blend of Croatian and Italian Cusine

Really good food, had a beef steak and Swiss chard dalmatian style, super-tender and tasty! The waiters are attentive, maybe a bit of a high volume on the music, could benefit from turning it down a bit. But all in all, visit!

This restaurant is set in a charming location and can be accessed by taxi or by walking along the costal path.
Having researched T.A. reviews we reserved a table for the Taster Menu with anticipation.
The first three courses were of the standard to be expected although the matched wines did not always arrive at the proper time. The following courses were - alright. Nothing to complain about but not of the expected standard and without a spread between fish and meat.
Service was very pleasant but appeared to be disjointed. Our opinion was the restaurant was not having a good night

Reviewed By MarcoMelchior - Province of Udine, Italy

Nice restaurant with a wonderful Terrace facing Quarnaro; very welcoming service, multilingual. Interesting Croatian wine list, amazing fresh fish. We had a 1.5kg seabass: really high quality. Raw fish as appetizer was nothing special but good.
Sincerely overpriced; more than we expected considering the level of the food, the place and what we ordered. Quality of course has a value, but when is overpriced becomes a reason not to recommend it.

Nice and even impressive location, right on the water. You really feel like eating on a Yacht. We had - of course - fish and it tasted very well. Service and quality of food were excellent. We were happy to have chosen this restaurant for our dinner in Opatija.
