Korcula Restaurants

Driving from Dubrovnik to Korcula, we passed through the town of Mali Ston (a few miles before you get to the ferry at Orebic). There, we had a phenomenal lunch at a seafood restaurant called Bella Vista. As the name implies, it's high on a hill with a lovely view down to the Ston harbor--see the photo here.

Favorite Dish: My friend and I split the seafood platter, which is advertised as serving two people. Actually, it's more like four! The platter included huge quantities of delicious grilled and fried fish and shellfish, plus French fries and salad. It was amazing.

The Marco Polo had pretty much the same menu as every other restaurant in Croatia--pasta, fish, risotto, grilled meat, salads, and cheese plates. But the shrimp risotto I got at this place was superb--the best plate of food I had in the country.

There is a really good pizza joint in the square with the church that has lions on it's doors. Their sign in all over the island, it's orange and white I think. I suggest getting take-out and taking your pie to the waterfront where you can sit on a bench or the wall and watch the sunset or the ships go by on their way up and down Croatia's coast.

Walk on the promenade and choose !

Really great pizzas everywhere. This particular one I had in Lumbarda at the Pizza place 50yrds to the right of the water taxis.

Scampi risotto and scampi pasta

This place had great scampi, pasta dishes, mussels, and pizzas.

These mussels were so fresh and tasty and cheap. Don't pass them by and can find them at almost every restaurant in town.
