The best time to enjoy Tinel is in the evening, under the candlelights. Yet, the food is great, so one can enjoy it at any time of a day. The tables extend to a narrow local street, just off the main entrance to the old town on the peninsula, that connect the old town's northern gate with the main city square - The People's Square, or the Plaza di Popoli.
Tinel is a restaurant, but also offers take-away food. You can take excellent pizza, as well as anything else offered on the menu.
Favorite Dish: Tinel's owner makes a point of enhancing the offering every year, so there could be a better dish on the menu this year, but in 2010 my favorite was beef steak with arugula.

Another nice restaurant in Zadar. Taken care that in this city there are 2 restaurants called "Zadar", but the other one is a bit more northern and is actually caled "Zadar Jadera". Anyway, you can't miss this one because its terrasse is open to the sea and while you're eating you can also see the island Preko. If the weather isn't nice, there's a big room inside. This restaurant is also a simple bar for those who just want to have a drink.
MENU: Hrvatski, Italiano, Deutsch & English.

Favorite Dish: They have a large choice of fish and meat dishes and also the possibility to taste local cheese and salumery specialities. Otherwise, try a pizza or a salad.

From the outside, it doesn't invite you to enter, but once your inside this restaurant it seems you entered another World. The room is very well decorated and looks like a "de luxe" restaurant. Waiters are very professional (for example, if you ask for one fish, they bring you the trey and you choose the one you want). Terrasse in Summer.

If it's not the best restaurant in Zadar, it's one of the first ones. When the weather is good you can eat on the terrasse in front of the sea. It's wonderful. Waiters are very professional and friendly. About the fish, it's very good.
Restoran Foša deserves to be tasted.

Fried maroni (large chestnuts) come as excellent warm snack on a coldish pre-winter time. Take a walk in town, you'll find them at some corners during the day and not too late in night.
Several of them by the New bridge (the illuminated construction by the secluded boat yard) where I took this photo.
Favorite Dish: Maroni - such a nice and simple, warm and tasty snack comes great at night. You'll get them wrapped in paper so you can warm up your hands and take them with you.
The only question is - were these local or Italian?

In one of the ground floors, few steps from Forum, there we sat down after easy going explore of old city and its organic fair - at the Bruschetta, foreign named restaurant with renewed modern design of the place. Well, we didn't look hard to find 'nice' restaurants, we didn't follow recommendations, we sat where we saw people eating out on an average, rainy weekend, not far from the coast. We decided to try for its convenience and walking that direction anyways - towards the liceum, by the quay. Menu and prices were at first glance promising, so was the service, but then we were waiting long for lasagnas and pizzas (never come too hungry to eat, haha).
Favorite Dish: Their lasagna is good choice to eat, they have excellent vegetarian variety which feeds good one person (or two if both are not very hungry). Served in the clay pot, with seasonal vegetables. Roughly 6,25 Euro or 45 Kuna for that.
I was hoping their bruschetta and salad will be enough so I ordered; when it got served... the decoration was lovely, colorful, but there were only 2 tiny pieces of bread with chopped tomato over top, well... that's really just to make you more hungry. Bruschetta was 18 KN (2,5 Euro), 'salad with mozzarela' was 45 KN (almost 5 euro, khm...). The problem with this 'salad' is also its small size, come on! Look at the pic - four slices of tomato, cheese and ruccolla.
If you stick to pizzas, you'll do fine - just nothing special. Frutti di mare was 50 KN.

The food was fantastic, and well prepared, as well as presented nicely.
Favorite Dish: The steak with "Rafael" sauce-like Steak Diane in US, was most excellent. There was obviously so much, that there was leftovers for two more meals for us.

This is the only restaurant I found with outside seating along the riva, where you can catch the sun setting over the Zadar archipeligo.
Favorite Dish: The sea food salad was wonderfully fresh - the girce were lightly breaded and fried - the smoked dalamation ham was smokey and silky.
