Right around the corner of Korzo, Main Street there is cosy restaurant with amazing outdoor space in almost a cult street where local bands were born, walls covered with art, Bracera is culinary experience that one must experience. From simple pizzas to local culinary delights I would highly recommend this restaurant. Service was professional but funny and entertaining.

This restaurant is indeed fantastic. It is true that I wanted to introduce Pizzeria Ex on Tripadvisor, but someone was faster, so I am sentenced to just offer my humble review. This restaurant is well known for a few decades and is locally admired, literally. This is not just a fairy tale, but a reality when you realize the outcome of ratio of what you have payed and what you have received for your hard earned money. I have visited this restaurant numerous times during the last few years and I simply have accolades for this place. Honestly speaking, this is very basic and simple restaurant catering for local people. Knowing that such restaurant exists on or close to the Adriatic shore, makes it even more interesting for all those visiting Rijeka town.Pizzeria Ex offers almost everything you could imagine. In the morning hours, you will be able to enjoy wonderful brunches and after that, great pizzas, pastas, and almost all imaginable food spectrum at more than decent and affordable prices. Personally, I have three choices that I combine... The first and without any competition is hunter's pork chops. This meal, according to my taste is the number one of this restaurant. The second one one is pasta with prawns, but advertised as pasta with shrimps. Of course, the ingredient is a prawn and not a shrimp, but now when you know it, you will not be angry or disappointed. The third options are pizzas in different options and sizes and my favorite is pizza Ex with addition of more tomato juice and artichoke. In case that you really want to taste a Croatian meals on the Adriatic coast at the prices affordable to the locals, just take the bus number 2 and exit at the very last station called SrdoÄi. The restaurant is just 80 meters away from the bus station.

I had the aussie burger and must say that it is the best. Fantastic flavor with the cooked pineapple, which adds a wonderful sweetness, the beetroot, egg and bacon adds another layer of flavour, topped off with a high quality beef pattie makes this a complete meal. It's the best.

Once we arrived in Rijeka, we had missed lunch and were looking for mid lunch/dinner options. Maslina is in a great shopping/food area and was quite busy. We sat outside since it was a little warm and there wasnât air conditioning inside and sitting outside was pretty comfortable. The service was slower than we would have liked. Because of my friendâs allergies, she had to order gluten and dairy free but the waiter was not helpful and myfriend couldnât eat some of her food as they hadnât answered her questions. It was conveniently located but slow.

Famous bar-pizzeria in the center of Rijeka. Located in the old shelter bunker on the coast, just few meters from the sea. We offer drinks of various kind, and delicious pizzas, sea food and the only one in town - sushi.

I visited this place with my friends to relax from the trip and driving all day. We ordered coffee, which somehow tasted salty, and some juice. At first it seemed as a pleasant atmosphere, but boy, were we wrong! The waiter (hairless one, with glasses, I think the shift manager) started obnoxiously yelling at some guests for parking, while they were leaving. Not a minute after, he continued to angrily walk from table to table asking us, the guests, if the red jeep parked is ours. Not only did he interrupt our conversation, he also made the overall experience very unpleasant, alongside the coffee. The cherry on top was definitely when I tried to pay with credit card and he yelled at me that we should have told him that before ordering. It was my breaking point and while I continued to explain him that I am not responsible for notifiying him about my preffered payment method in advance, but it's rather his job to ask about it, he argued with me, loudly and furiously. All in all, I wouldn't recommend this place, since it clearly doesn't value its guests. Be clever, put your money and time somewhere where you'll actually enjoy being. This is my first and last time here.
