Gourmet Restaurant

Across the street from the hippodrome is this neighborhood restaurant known for its meat and fish specialties, and especially good wines because the owner Mario Meštrović is one of the most famous Croatian sommeliers. There is a lack of light in the interior, so it is more comfortable to sit on the glazed long terrace. The staff is polite and will be happy to present you with the offer of the day and suggest the wine that will best accompany your choice. Kaiser also offers delicious snacks at affordable prices, so employees of nearby offices are happy to come here in the morning. For lunch or early dinner, you can choose between quality pieces of meat or fresh fish. We tasted shrimp tartare, seasoned with an emulsion of olive oil and lemon, which was given extra freshness by mango gel, while capers and lobster chips served more as decoration. Unfortunately, their excellent fried smelts were not there that day. For the main course, we also chose meat and fish. Boiled veal with boiled vegetables was delicious, although it is a light, simple dish. We especially liked the monkfish fillet, previously marinated with herbs and citrus, grilled. The monkfish was served with pea puree and excellent fennel cut into strips and prepared with butter and white wine. A refreshing mango sorbetto was the ideal end to lunch. Kaiser has a good selection of sparkling wines and wines by the glass, so it's easy to pair different wines for each course. The restaurant's fair prices match the quality.
