Perched on the walled entrance to Dubrovnik’s enchanting Old City, Nautika has a prime location amongst ancient architecture that perfectly complements the superb cuisine and dazzling seascapes.
Voted one of the most romantic restaurants in the world, Nautika’s setting is endlessly beautiful. Diners can immerse themselves in the vistas over the crystal-clear ocean sparkling in the sunshine and admire the 16h century citadel of Lovrijenac standing tall on a rocky outcrop opposite the venue.
Superyachts dot the horizon as well, as Nautika is invariably popular amongst those undertaking luxury yacht charters in Croatia. The menu reflects the restaurant's clientele, with a strong focus on catch-fresh spoils from local fishermen and a refined take on Mediterranean gastronomy.
Menu favourites include sea bass fillet laced in vanilla cream and Dalmatian-style lamb with purple cabbage and zingy onion marmalade.
