Restaurant Sveti Nikola

Restaurant was highly rated so was excited to try it but was left disappointed. Carpaccio starter was fine but nothing to get too excited about. We ordered a risotto and seafood pasta for mains. The risotto looked like a bowl of soup with rice in it, and while the seafood itself was cooked well the pasta dish as a whole was very bland and flavourless. We decided against having dessert based on what we'd had and went elsewhere. What made this particularly disappointing was the price compared to other places nearby, didn't feel like the quality matched the cost. Positives were the wine, and our waiter was very nice. View out on the harbour is nice too. Overall, you can get a nicer meal for half the price nearby.

It was my first visit, and the owner welcomed me warmly and also served me himself. I decided to take the 4 course fish option. Because I was a bit picky with some options, it was no problem to adapt the menu to my preferences. The food was delicious and served perfectly in time. It is also a really good price for that quality. Highly recommended! :)

Outstanding. Food and especially service are top. The owner really makes you feel as a guest in a way that i have not experienced many times.

Although not perfect, this restaurant is head and shoulder above other places in Poreč, in terms of the quality of the food. Their service is also exceptional. Mr. Nikola, the owner of the restaurant, would personally greet every guest during their stay, which is quite unusual and impressive. They have a daily special menu for both lunch and dinner. The lunch consists of three course and costs about 14 euro. The dinner has 4 courses and price is about 20 euro. I had the opportunity to try both, and I must say they offer exceptional value given the quality of the food, plus the excellent service. The calamari is my favorite - it is both fresh and delicious. I am however less impressed with the grilled fish. Somehow it tasted bland, and less tender, compared to the grilled fish I had last night at another local restaurant nearby.

The meals are delicious, the feeling of the place is also has its own vibe. I would reccommend fish fillet with aspargus and truffels if you like fish. The waitress was kind and friendly They even bring us a little cold appetizer.

Wanted to go here for a while Had really high expectations which hadn't been completely fullfilled. Food is good Portions size are fare Loved the dessert and mushroom soup Main dish which was fish fillet was tasty but I found a small bone Which really shouldn't happen And vegetables that came with fish were really bland and overcooked. Calamari were really tasty. When it comes to service They did their best but something was lacking. There was this really tall waiter, he was really nice and helpfull even though he explained that he was new. All in all a good restaurant with lovely food and few things to work on.

What a nice restaurant, beautifully situated just in front of the harbor. The food couldn’t be better prepared and served. Great food and great atmosphere. The prices are reasonable too.

A beautiful delicious evening, perfect for our family reunion in Istria. Wonderful dishes and service.
