Ate here twice during our stay, extremely fresh food set on a wonderful harbour background. The smell of grilling fish and wonderfully attentive staff creates a great atmosphere. Highly recommend the fish platter for all the best of the days catch!

Restaurant Pecina is located in Ploce where the A-1 Hwy ends and before you get to the marshy area of the Neretva River. There are no gas stations/ rest stops with food on a long stetch of the new Hwy before Ploce. Pecina has a lovely, vine covered Terrace, a dark bar that looks like a cave and two indoor dining areas (one with the cave theme). We ate there on our way to Dubrovnik and again, on the way back.We were pleasantly surpised both times! On the first visit I had a very tasty tomato based seafood risotto and my husband had an excellent grilled shish-k-bob. On our 2nd visit we started with an exceptionally good marinated seafood salad. As an entree my husband had the Adriatic squid. He had a very generous portion of 8 or 9 very tasty squid. I had a wood grilled Bass which was one of the freshest, tastiest fish I had the whole trip. (That is really saying something because we ate a lot of fish!). On top of this the prices are very reasonable for the quality and quantity of food served.
My only complaint is about the bathrooms. Although they are basically clean and provide a generous supply of toilet paper and paper towels they are dingy and dark. They need a fresh coat of paint and better lighting. In addition, the 2nd time I was there the toilet seat was off in the ladies room.

After being here second time I must say that I expected at least the same feeling like first time.. I cannot say food is not good - actually it is, but the way of serving and also hospitality was different to my previous experiences. Mr. Antunovic should carefully thing about customer needs and probably change behavior of staff. Maybe we just have to high expectation based on previous visits... We did not feel that we are at home as last time :(
To fully summarize it - great place with great potential and great food.

Great and authentic experience in the middle of Peljesac peninsula. Great food and homemade wine, selection of grappa ( Rakija and liker). Amazing ambient inside the taverna with funny and easy going hosts. Not the biggest selection of food but you can be sure it is fresh and local! Try to explore the property while there…

Home cooking, not touristy but friendly with splendid food. Fish or meat, no mistake there. Charming hosts, the Mom in the kitchen, Father at the charcoal grill and son as waiter. In the evening, father and son entertain the guests by singing after the dinner is served. Very moderate prices. Worth visit. Do not look at the menu, just tell them to bring the best if the day and you shall not be sorry.

This place is perfect, and worth the effort to get there. The seafood is fresh, the service is very very kind (not always the case in Croatia!), the wine generously poured, and the view on the sea amazing especially as sunset. The picnic-tables under the pines make it a true summer retreat, far from the crazy crowds. I would go back to Peljesac because of this place.
8. Matusko Tavern
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 26 reviews
When it comes to great wines, Croatia's Peljesac Peninsula doesn't exactly spring to mind the way Montepulciano or Rioja might. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't pay a visit to Peljesac's family-owned wineries Matusko. The Matusko Winery wines are easily identified by their unique labeling which features the illustration of two donkeys. The wines produced at Matusko Winery are known to be high quality and affordable, making it a popular tourist attraction for the growing wine enthusiast market that is emerging in Croatia. Dingač, matured in silence of oak barrels, with dark ruby red color and purple hues but clear at the same time, it has full and rounded flavor, harmonious taste combining astringency and sweetness. Their smooth and well-balanced Plavac Mali is not only great, but also quite affordable. As and addition to winery, Restaurant Tavern Matusko will offer you some local dishes served on a lovely Terrace perched on the hill above the sea.

We were in a trip back home from Viganj to Dubrovnik and since we skipped brakefast we were first guests on lunch. We found little tavern on the beach. It was simple, basic, clean and with charming staff.
Menu was simple, just less than ten dishes in every section. Basic, local, simple. I have found maybe one unorhodx risotto with curry.
Waitres was very knowlgeable and nice and have us her choice. Black risotto, tuna steak and cold platter for first course.
Soon the platter came. Delicious, home made,fresh local fish salted and marinated and pate with Big tasty peaces of fish. Amazing, i was 80% full after first dish. Perfect.
Then risotto came. It looked like Black peace of heaven. Cook managed to pull out the best out of fresh fish and local spices. BEST BLACK RISOTTO IN UNIVERSE. Tuna steak was large and tasty also, and chard was so well done that even that bring plant was all New surprise.
I will never ever pass this road again and miss this risotto. I ate at least 30 Black risottos in best croatian places and homes and this one beat one my mom makes.

We came with high expectations since this restaurant (konoba) was recommended to us by a friend.
Service was not only very slow but we got different meals from the one we ordered!
Waitress shall be taking notes when receiving orders.
Waited for more than an hour for pasta. Black risotto was average.
The view from the Terrace is very nice.
