A wonderful restaurant tucked away among pine trees, with only the sound of crickets in the background. Dinner on the terrace was a highlight the tuna steak perfectly cooked, the steak rich in flavor, and the steak tartare spot on. Service was excellent, and the convenience of onsite parking made the visit even easier. The place looks wonderful inside and out. When we arrived the outside terrace was full (or reserved) so we sat inside, which remained almost empty. We were initially served drinks by a charming and friendly waiter. As the restaurant got busy we ‘lost’ our waiter and it seemed we had to grab random passing waiters, who were all working very busily to serve the outside terrace. It felt like we were forgotten. Food was all totally under seasoned. Except the grilled vegetables which were over salted (but nothing else). Fries were oily and limp. The Octopus starter was enough for three people (see pic)! I had a tuna strak, supposedly rare, it was medium to well done, not pink at all. My guest had pork in bacon. Again no seasoning. We sent the fries back early on. At a certain point, a live band came on outside and the music (amped) was pipes inside. It was so loud you couldn’t hear a guest opposite on the same table. I initially i saw the manger attend and turn it down, but it reverted to very loud. I complained twice. But he didn’t attend to it again. We literally had to shout at the waiter as we tried to pay. As we had been forgotten it took ages to gran a waiter as they rushed past us in a blur. When we paid, although they took the uneaten fries off the bill, there was no other attempt to ameliorate our very poor experience. Rubbish evening. Would not go again. Definitely a place to visit for the special atmosphere! It’s very unique surrounded by trees. Food is also good

Pleasant outdoor atmosphere and live music on Saturdays (not sure if only). Food is delicious, maybe the best in Split overall. Everything is seasoned perfectly. Staff is very attentive and friendly which makes the service great!
