"This small restaurant within the city’s medieval walls has a welcoming and informal atmosphere. The menu is imaginative and includes fresh seafood from the Adriatic, pasta dishes, light salads and vegetarian options with a pleasing contemporary touch. The attractive outdoor dining area in an alleyway in the historic centre allows guests to experience all the magic of Dubrovnik." - Michelin Inspector
"Its name honors an avant-garde woman poet from Dubrovnik’s golden age, Cvijeta Zuzorić. Its menu, by star chef Jeffery Vella, honors one of the Cvijeta’s tenets: No compromising on the things you believe in. And what the staff believes in here is that the dishes must be creative, the ingredients fresh, and the wine list enticing. Start with the octopus mini burgers on olive focaccia, then enjoy a gilthead bream fillet cooked in parchment, and end your mealwith peachand mascarpone crumble. Dine on some of Dubrovnik’s tastiest treasures from your seat in a charming stone alleyway, watching the passersby."

Not Sure How This Made the Michelin Guide...
We went in with high hopes and left pretty disappointed.
The service was poor. Our waiter didn't ask if we wanted a bottle of wine or just glasses. Then when the wine arrived, it was just the glasses—no bottle presented, and we had to flag someone down to get a top-up later.
The food had some major issues. The fish tartare was just okay, but there was a fish scale in it. But the biggest issue was on the cheese plate. We actually found a piece of paper mixed in with the cheese!
The beef steak was fine, nothing special.
Overall, it was a pretty below-average experience. For a place that's supposed to be on the Michelin radar, I was expecting so much more attention to detail. It definitely didn't live up to the hype. We paid 150 euros for it.

Amazing food, served on time. The receptionist was kind and lovely. Our waiter Mirko was fast and gentle. Drinks are also very good. It's a bit on the expensive side, but it's been recommended by the Michelin Guide since 2018.

Amazing food in the center of Dubrovnik. Every dish we had is very good. The molten chocolate cake is a must have. Ivan, our server, is very attentive and gave excellent recommended for the wine to pair our meal. Highly recommended.

100% recommend, an all round winner for amazing food, tentative and friendly service as well as a romantic and relaxing atmosphere. We had a brilliant dining experience where quality food was served throughout the evening! We were very lucky to be served by Romana and Marco who did a fantastic job recommending us dishes that were perfect for our preferences and always checking that everything was ok for us - as well as helping us take photos! Best in class service as both went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and having a great time. Thank you for the memorable experience which was worth every penny spent!

Absolutely best resto in all of Dubrovnik! Food is off the chart, 6 consecutive years Michelin rated. Pleasant music, culturally sensitive and friendly, respecting local customs. Cannot say enough about the food! You must try for yourself.
My niece and I sampled local wines, array of marinated olives, burrata salad and white fish fillet with tomatoes and capers. The baked potato and bacon was simply sublime. IVAN’s service made us loyal customers upon first visit. Will return, for sure, many times!

Loved this place and our waiter was so nice. Croatian food was delicious paired with Croatian wine. Pricing was also very good for the quality you are receiving. I would say that the bread they give you is also amazing. I’m not really a bread eater but it was so good I had 7 pieces with olive oil. Such a good place.

Nice and calm restaurant in the center of Dubrovnik’s old town. My pasta with truffle was amazing, the portion was perfect and the relation quality price is correct. We asked for the lava chocolate dessert and we really enjoyed it. Even if it was in city center it was not that crowded and we were able to discuss calmly.

Food was good, but nothing exciting. When we asked for recommendations, we did not get any highlights. Maybe I had too high expectations for a Michelin restaurant.
