Restaurant Filippi

One of the best restaurant finds in Korcula, Croatia 🇭🇷 . The food was spectacular (Michelin Starred), the service excellent, the table out on the edge of the promenade under the trees, and the experience highly personal. We met the Chef owner (Filip) and the most amazing waiter who guided us through great menu choices ( I highly recommend you try the duck!!). You should find and try.

If you’re looking for a dinner that goes beyond the ordinary and turns into a memorable experience – Filippi in Korčula is the place to be. An 8-course dinner that was flawless from start to finish – a perfect blend of fine cuisine, professional service, and a beautiful seaside setting. I won’t spoil the surprise by revealing the dishes, but know this – each course is a revelation, and the journey is worth every cent. This is not just a meal – it’s an experience. Let the photos speak for themselves, and I’ll leave it to you to discover the magic that Filippi has to offer.

Cozy setting outdoors with a view of the sea. My partner and I got a nice table for 2 under the pine trees. Kind and professional service. The restaurant is more on the expensive side - it has a Michelin Plate!

We left the restaurant feeling frustrated. We paid €104 per person for a tasting menu — a price well above the local standard — so we expected at least satisfying quality and portions. Unfortunately, that wasn’t the case. My starter, a shrimp tartare, was excellent. My husband’s veal was good, but the portion was shockingly small. At that point, the waiter offered us some focaccia — which, considering it was a tasting menu, we naturally assumed was included. But no: we were charged extra for it, which felt misleading. The main courses were underwhelming. Mine lacked flavor and creativity, and included a grape that tasted overwhelmingly like vinegar. My husband’s lamb was just okay, but again, served in a disappointingly tiny portion. As for dessert, my white chocolate option was very good, but his strawberry sorbet was basically just frozen strawberry juice. Nothing more. For the price we paid, we left hungry — and with the sense that the experience didn’t live up to the price point, in terms of flavor, care, or transparency. We do not recommend it.

When in Korčula, you need to book a table here, not only for the incredible food made with best ingredients and much love, passion, talent and creativity, the perfect service, but also for the incredible view. It deserves every Michelin star they received. One of the best Croatian dinings ❤️

Such a beautiful location, we sat on a table next to the water with a stunning view. Our waiter Rocco was exceptional, very attentive and sweet. My friend and I each had the 3 course menu and chose different options. She had the cheese starter, sea bass then Strawberry. I chose the seabass cerviche to start, lamb, then chocolate. The cerviche was delicate and fresh, the lamb was succulent and the broccoli puree it cane with was delicious. The chocolate dessert was very rich and decadent.

We didn't have a reservation anywhere, weather was threatening... Filippi was on our list of recommendations. They found us a table, and we enjoyed an excellent dinner. Friendly staff and beautifully presented food.

Honestly very very disappointing. The food did not live up to the price or the Michelin recommendation. Most of the dishes lacked salt and acidity. The price was way too high compared with the quality (104€ each for 3 small dishes). The service was good but I would still not recommend going.
