"Skip the tourist traps in Dubrovnik and get a boat out to sleepy Sipan island. Right at the tip of the peninsula, at the edge of a sun-scorched horseshoe bay, there’s a tiny restaurant called Kod Marka. There’s just one waiter, only a handful of tables, no sign, no menu—just whatever was plucked fresh out the sea that morning, drizzled with olive oil and lemon and served on a huge silver platter. Paper tablecloths flutter in the salty breeze and delightful owner Dino brings over jug after jug of his homegrown wine. Come off-season, and there’s nothing else here but a few beaten up Citroëns and a pair of old men dozing quietly on a bench nearby."
The octopus cakes were wonderful 😋 the prawns were perfectly cooked, and the Sea Bass, well I can honestly say it was the best I have ever had, better even than the one I had at Rick Steins Fish Restaurant. Very simple but delicious food. And watching the sun go down was a nice way to end a rather good day..😄

First rate food and service in a beautiful location away from the hustle of Dubrovnik. The octopus fritters and whole roast grouper were standouts. Highly recommend!

Amazing experience! We loved Marco! The octopus cakes were divine! Amazing wine and some of the best fish I’ve had!

Have a love/hate relationship with this restaurant when sailing. Lots to love. Great mooring balls. Good service. Octopus cakes outstanding.
Hates. Every main is served with mushy potatoes and chard. We politely asked for fries and salad and was told the chef wouldn’t like that as it wasn’t traditional. I’ve been eating in Croatia for 20 years and mushy potatoes and chard are not that traditional 😂. Please offer a choice of sides at these high island prices…
Otherwise great

We grabbed a mooring ball here for one night and it was one of my favorite experiences in Croatia. The waiters were so polite and helpful. The octopus patty was my favorite thing I tried on our whole trip. The seafood risotto was just ok. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting.

We absolutely loved our dinner here. This was definitely the highlight of our week-long trip in Croatia and our favorite dinner. We sat down as the sun was setting, watched the boats go by and enjoyed delicious wine and even better food. Highly recommend the octopus cakes, grilled sea bass and the pasta with shrimp. The very best part of our dinner was our waiter, Marco - he gave great wine and food recommendations and was very personable. Hopefully will find my way back to Konoba Kod Marka at some point again :)

Wonderful location and we had an excellent dinner. The staff is very friendly and all dishes were so well prepared. The wine was chosen by the gentleman who served us and it went down very nicely so we had 2 bottles. Thank you for my liquor 🥃 at the end of the dinner, although had no idea what I was given but it was delicious 😋. Highly recommended this restaurant if you are around the area.
Grilled prawns, octopus "burger" and grilled fish were delicious!

Best meal I had in Croatia. Service is 10/10. Fish is 10/10. And the octopus cakes are 100/10.
