The Best Restaurant in Split, Central Dalmatia

Background Illustration for Restaurants

In the past two years the gastro scene in Split has exploded. There are a great number of new and exciting places to eat that showcase the region’s growing culinary sophistication. This comes as a great relief for foreign travelers looking for more than a good pizza and fresh grilled fish, the only options once found in most restaurants. A new generation of young well-traveled entrepreneurs have come back to Croatia and are giving the food scene a much needed face-lift. The fact that in Split there are three sushi bars, an authentic Turkish mezza, a specialty olive oil and farm food restaurant, numerous healthy lunch options, several fine-dining options, and, of course, the original wine and cheese bar that spurred a Croatian trend speaks volumes about the dining changes that have hit Split in recent years.
