Restoran STARI MOST

Reviewed By JMReview

Understated, simple, but powered by an excellent wait staff and phenomenal food.This local joint is known around town as having the best ćevapi and it lives up to the hype. A medium portion was ample for my hefty appetite, but the sheer quality left me hungering for more.The lepinja (pita bread) was superb, Ćevapi were expertly made and cooked, and the fries were quite solid, if a bit salty (but hey, why not?)The restaurant had some traffic, yet the wait staff was prompt and very polite. We got our food in under 10 minutes, savored our meal, digested, and went off for drinks.Two medium orders of Ćevapi, shared fries, a coke, and a gemišt (German for 'mixed', wine cut with water/seltzer) came to a super reasonable 160 kuna. I can't wait to go back.

This place has over 100 crepe options, both sweet and savory. The ones we tried were huge and out of this world delicious! They're opened odd hours - 3-11 PM - but it's a delightful afternoon treat with coffee! Also not so crowded because it's not in Old Town. Stop by on your way to or from the Sphinx!

This restaurant is off the beating track slightly but you will not be disappointed even if you trudge there in the gruelling heat.. Our host and hostess were lovely- cracked jokes and prompt service. Meals including steak, fisherman’s stew and pork were all delicious. Highly recommend

Reviewed By FormerFlyer19560415

Mildly worried when we walked in and nobody paid any attention to us.10 mins to get a menu (the couple who arrived after us waited 20 mins in silence - more fool them!).After nearly an hour after ordering we asked if the food would be served. Within 5 mins two excellently prepared dishes arrived as ordered....Was the restaurant:A. Overwhelmed by customers and unable to serve them all?B. Understaffed on a busy evening?C. Our order had been forgotten?D. Poorly managed?Yes, we were offered a free coffee/digestif but really couldn’t be bothered to suffer yet more of a wait.We left feeling that the staff were not surprised by our less than enthusiastic farewell - clearly not the first time diners had been subjected to a similar experience.We apologize for the the wait you had to endure. I was personally waitng your table and I tried to explain the situation to you. We are glad that at least the food was excellently peprared. It's not that we are poorly mananged or overwhelmed or that your order was forgotten. The problem is that withing the last few days we had a sudden departure of some our staff, and we are still adapting and trying to make the best we can. I myself am working 12 hour shifts. So I apologize in the name of all of us, and next time you are in town you get a whole dinner on the house.Josip

Eat Me!

Eat Me is Be Food chain restaurant situated in Zadar Old town. Our menu is different, we combine wine bar, restaurant slow food and lounge atmosphere. Great for people who like to enjoy in food, wine and Mediterranean atmosphere.

Loved it. Friendly staff and great food. Would have liked to have been able to sit inside but it was very hot. So sat outside. The only thing that stops this getting 5 is just that. I don’t smoke but most of the locals do. Fortunately on our visit no other patrons lit up.Our waiters are instructed to talk to the guests, make them laugh and make them happy. We are glad you like it that way. Thank you for the review..

After a week of pizzas and pasta, we headed to Jadera on the recommendation of our sailing skipper. Great menu, quality food and service that was fun and friendly.Huge portions (I had the monkfish) so don’t do as we did and order starters and mains!!! The “appetisers” are a full course in themselves!
