Pantarul is a very good restaurant in Dubrovnik with delicious dishes. Every dish that the restaurant serves is prepared with ingredients from a local source, so that's amazing!

Most of the ingredients are from farmers from Župa and Konavle. The other ingredients are from other farmers near Dubrovnik. Furthermore, the dishes you can order here depend on the season of the year, which is great!

There are many kinds of dishes you can choose from at Pantarul, such as pasta that's made in the restaurant.

Moreover, the restaurant is just a lovely place to be. The personnel wants you to feel welcome in the restaurant and the waiters are very friendly.

Pizzeria Tabasco is a place where you can have amazing Italian food! Especially if you're looking for good pizza, you should really go here.

This place is also pretty affordable, so that's very convenient. Furthermore, if you're going to this restaurant, you can sit inside or outside. The restaurant also has a delivery service.

Pizzeria Tabasco has many kinds of pizzas, such as the margarita, the Vegetariana, the four seasons pizza, and the Mexicana. Since there are so many options, there will be one you like for sure.

Furthermore, the restaurant also focuses on using good ingredients and therefore their slogan is better ingredients, better pizza!

3. Nishta

Nishta is a vegan restaurant and it's definitely my favorite restaurant in Dubrovnik! The restaurant had inspiration from cuisines from all over the world for the dishes.

They serve gourmet dishes that are gluten-free, raw, and vegan! Moreover, all dishes are freshly prepared and Nishta only uses ingredients of the highest quality.

Furthermore, it's located in the historic center of the old town, so that's really nice.

The story of Nishta is amazing as well. They created this restaurant when there were no other vegetarian restaurants in Dubrovnik.

The hosts are from Croatia and Swiss, and they planned to be in Dubrovnik for only a day, but they ended up being there for over ten years now.

They actually opened a juice bar which was pretty successful, but they wanted to do more, so they opened a vegetarian restaurant!

I really love this story and the fact that they initially only would have been in Dubrovnik for one day, but they ended up being here for so many years while at the same time creating such an incredible restaurant. It definitely belongs to the best restaurants in Dubrovnik!

4. Tavern Arka

Tavern Arka is one of the best restaurants in Dubrovnik where you can taste amazing dishes.

There are dishes from the Croatian and Mediterranean cuisine, so it's the perfect place to go if you want to taste Croatian food when you're in Dubrovnik. There are over 50 dishes on the menu, so there will definitely be something you would like!

The restaurant is located in Zaton, which is a beautiful bay area in the north of the city. Furthermore, it's only about eight kilometers from the main port.

The view from the restaurant is really beautiful, so it's the perfect place to be for a very relaxing evening. Moreover, the interior of Tavern Arka is very pretty as well. There are fireplaces, there's a wooden bar and there are beautiful stone walls!

You can sit inside, but there are also enough seats outside. From the terrace, you have a lovely view of the de bay. Moreover, you really have everything you'll need in this restaurant since there's even free WiFi! The personnel of the restaurant has lots of experience. For example, the chef worked for a 5-star hotel before he became chef of Tavern Arka!

Menu: Here's the menu of Tavern Arka!

Address: Na Ratu 3A, Zaton, 20235

5. Bota Šare

Bota Šare is an oyster and sushi bar in Dubrovnik.

This place is located very close to the cathedral of Dubrovnik in the old center, so the location is really good. Going to the cathedral is also one of the best things to do in Dubrovnik.

The food that Bota Šare serves is very delicious, but that's not the only thing that's great about the dishes. The dishes are also very colorful and you will really be surprised by all the colors that are on your plate if you order something!

The restaurant also always makes sure that the food is fresh and that makes the taste of the dishes even better. Furthermore, I would especially recommend trying the vegetarian plate, since that plate is truly amazing and the food is so delicious!

However, there are many great plates and dishes on the menu, so you should definitely check it out by yourself. Also, don't forget to have a look at the desserts of Bota Sare. I would definitely recommend having the seasonal food.

6. Vita Bella

Vita Bella is another one of the best restaurants in Dubrovnik. This is a restaurant with many kinds of dishes, so it's perfect to go here if you want to have something completely different than the person you're having dinner with!

There's pasta, risotto, and pizza, but there are also burgers and salads. Furthermore, there's barbecue as well! This place only uses ingredients of very good quality and since they have a great wood-fired oven, the pizzas are really amazing.

If you're having dinner here, you should also try the homemade pie! This is a very delicious dessert that you really shouldn't miss.

7. 360 Dubrovnik

360 Dubrovnik is a restaurant in the town of Dubrovnik. The restaurant is very unique since there is a wonderful terrace that covers a wall from medieval times. It's amazing that you can have dinner surrounded by history!

The views from this terrace are gorgeous as well since you have a view of the old town and the port. Moreover, the ingredients and flavors are from the Mediterranean cuisine and the cuisine of Dubrovnik, but the restaurant uses cooking techniques from France as well.

360 Dubrovnik is a luxurious restaurant and the chef even has a Michelin star! Therefore, this is one of the best restaurants in Dubrovnik, but it's also more expensive than the other restaurants.

However, if you want to taste food of high quality in a luxurious restaurant with amazing views, then 360 Dubrovnik is a great place to have dinner!

8. Peppers

If you're looking for an amazing burger, then you should check out Peppers! Peppers serves many delicious burgers. I would especially recommend the beyond meat burger!

Furthermore, besides burgers, there are many other dishes to choose from, so you should definitely have a look at the menu. There are also great appetizers, such as bruschetta, hummus, and soup. The sides that Pepper serves are great as well.

For example, they have homemade fries, sweet potato fries, and very delicious garlic bread. The ingredients that Peppers uses are all from a local source.

Moreover, this is a very comfortable place to have dinner. The restaurant says that there are no strict rules, they just want you to have good food with great company!

Peppers had inspiration from many cuisines in the world for their menu. What's also great about this restaurant, is that the dishes are created so that they can be shared! Therefore, you can taste many kinds of flavors.

Besides dinner, you can also have lunch here, which is great as well! There's also coffee and there are cocktails. This is really one of the best restaurants in Dubrovnik.

9. Nautika

Nautika is a place where you can have modern dishes from Mediterranean cuisine. At this restaurant, the dishes are very creative and of high quality.

Furthermore, the restaurant also cares about tradition. Nautika tries to use as many local products as possible, which is very nice.

There are also some vegetarian dishes on the menu that you should definitely try! Moreover, there are some great desserts on the menu as well.

For example, there's a dessert called chocolate fantasy, which consists of chocolate, caramel, and coffee! I love that there are unique desserts that are also very delicious.

The restaurant looks beautiful from the inside, so it's a very nice place to spend your evening. What's also very impressive, is that the restaurant is located in the building that used to be the School of Maritime Studies of Dubrovnik! This place belongs to the best restaurants in Dubrovnik for sure.
