Bistro Dolac

It's Halal restaurant as they told me. So I ordered Bosnian ćevapi in somun and was great. The meat were perfectly grilled and stuffed in juicy somun. Generous portion and fresh. The ambiance was good at outdoor sitting. Friendly staff and good service.

We came here to try some ćevapi in somun, and the food itself was good — no complaints there. However, a few things happened that really affected the overall experience. When we arrived, there were two waiters and the place wasn’t crowded at all — only three tables were occupied. After waiting for about 7–8 minutes with no one coming to take our order, we went inside to ask if we needed to order there or if someone would take orders outside. We were told that someone would come shortly. It was then that we noticed why no waiter was attending to the tables — an argument between the staff was taking place inside, right in front of guests. We didn’t take this too personally and decided to wait. A couple of minutes later, a waiter came and took our order, which arrived quickly — in about 4–5 minutes. About five minutes after the food was served, the same waiter came over and asked if we would be paying by cash or card. We said card, and he left. But then, just a minute or two later — while we were still eating, literally with food in our mouths and half our plates still full — he came back with the card terminal and told us we needed to pay now. We were stunned. In all my years of dining out, I’ve never experienced being asked to pay in the middle of a meal. It was rude, unprofessional, and completely ruined the atmosphere. When we told him we were still eating, he simply said he had to do it, showing no care or understanding. This level of unprofessional behavior, combined with news reports about food poisoning incidents at this same restaurant, just reinforces why many people avoid Bistro Dolac. Unfortunately, our experience confirmed that it lacks both professionalism and respect toward guests. Would I recommend it? No — there are much better places to enjoy ćevapi in Zagreb

I had an incredible dining experience at Bistro Dolac! The ćevapi in somun were absolutely delicious—perfectly grilled, juicy, and full of flavor. The somun was fresh, soft, and paired perfectly with the meat. The portion size was generous and very satisfying. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the staff were extremely friendly and attentive, making sure everything was perfect throughout my visit. It’s clear that this place takes pride in serving high-quality, authentic food. If you’re in the area and looking for a truly authentic meal, I highly recommend Bistro Dolac. I’ll definitely be coming back!

We had the Cevapi u kajmaku and the burek and both were delicious. Friendly service. Clean kitchen. Reasonable price. Just make sure you are clear if you are paying by cash or card! There was a whole thing when they misheard our response :)

The worst ćevapi I've had in a long time. The meat was tough and tasteless. I felt depressed after tasting the food, it was that bad. A shame since the food was really good a few years ago when I ate here.

A truly disappointing experience. From the very first moment we sat down, the atmosphere was cold and unwelcoming. The owner (we think, or at least the 50 year-old man) spoke to us with a rude, dismissive tone, as if our presence was a nuisance. No smile — just pure indifference and bad manners. Really bad manners. We stayed seated only because we wanted to try the food, but you would have deserved an insult and our absence. As for the food… nothing to write home about. The meat might be considered “traditional,” but there was absolutely nothing special about it. And all of this at prices that in no way reflect the quality offered. A restaurant that shows no interest in its guests and serves mediocre dishes does not deserve a second chance. Strongly not recommended.

Food was a failure. I 've tasted this kind of food many times and I think it was not tasteful at all. Moreover, dishes were very poor decorated. Meat, a kind of bread and some cut onions were in... The waiter was very polite, quick and helpful. He was the only good thing in that restaurant.

The design of the restaurant brings you to simpler yugoslav times, the food is great and i would recomend the burek with meat. Its taste is out of the world. The workers are respectful and sometimes social. 5/5 wasted like 80 euros here
