Bronzin - Sibenik

Our Hotelier recommended this place as one of his favourite places. Lovely setting on the promenade, there is a really nice ambience to the place. Food great, we had some lovely toasted Sour Dough with homemade dips to start, followed by a great risotto. I tried my first Peka and would recommend it. Overall a great experience

The food is forgettable, comes in low portions and expensive. We ordered a Tenderloin steak, Duck confided, Sea bass, and clutter fish. The duck was a single little leg, which was dry, undercooked and looked sad. The sides consisted of a few flavorless potatoes, without any seasoning and about a teaspoon of pea sauce, dry as the desert. The clutter fish was average, but the multiple fishes were not fresh (mind you this restaurant is about 20 meters from the sea). The sea bass was a disappointment. I doubt that an actual chef made that dish. The bass did not have any flavor at all. The steak was so dry the pieces of it fell apart to a slight squeeze with the fingers. Overall all dishes with meat have no reason to cost more than a frozen one plus a few more euros, accounting for the alcohol you have to buy to take your thoughts away from the fact that the animals who provided the meat died for nothing. Drinks were alright but we ordered basic ones. Service was nice but they didn’t even bother to ask how did the dishes taste, im assuming they knew that they are disappointing. Would not recommend to dine here under any circumstance.

We enjoyed a fantastic lunch in the heat on the patio. They also serve indoors with air conditioning, but we were okay outside in the shade with some cool water and a light breeze. The sea bass en papillote was just perfect, and we also had a refreshing cold gazpacho. Excellent wines by the glass. Relaxing jazz music played not too loud.

Food was really good, lovely location but service could have been better. I would still recommend it especially for their peka slow cooked lamb and octopus.

Despite the vegan options listed on the official website and the waiter's suggestion of vegan risotto and pasta, the reality is disappointing. Customers only discover this when they make a reservation and sit down. The staff are unprofessional and unhelpful. Even ordering simple dishes like salad and fries can result in a wait of up to an hour for the food to arrive.
