Gault&Millau's review 2026

The gastronomic concept of serving pizza with a glass of sparkling wine, good wine or a cocktail (rather than beer, which is the usual choice) proved so successful that shortly after the first location on Branimirova Street, a second Franko’s Pizza&Bar was opened. What sets them apart from other pizzerias is that the dough undergoes a long fermentation process. Guests can choose between two types of dough: Neapolitan, softer and airier, and Roman, thinner and crispier. Pizza is made with ingredients that are of exceptional quality and seasonal. They have a good collaboration with local producers, so the Istra pizza is prepared with ingredients that come from Istria, while the Island pizza uses Pag cheeses and other products from the island of Pag. In addition to about thirty types of pizza, they offer various smaller dishes (spring rolls, empanadas, various salads, pasta), but it is known what they are best at! That is why, for the second year in the row, they are fifteenth on the list of the famous gastronomic guide 50 Top Pizza, which includes all European countries except Italy. One of their most popular pizzas is the Mixed Emotions, which has a sweet potato cream base, fior di latte mozzarella, semi -dried tomatoes, burrata and aged beef. The new member of their big family is Dear Deer – with a base of beetroot, bermet (bitter -sweet dessert wine), purple onion and a filling of mozzarella fior di latte, goat cheese, spinach and bresaola from deer. In the evenings it is a good idea to book a table.
