Gradska Kavana Arsenal Restaurant & Bar
Pred Dvorom, 1, Old Town, Dubrovnik 20000 – +385 203 212 02 – Website
Named for the shipyard from the thirteenth century that sat long the old port where the restaurant is now located, Arsenal has been delivering high-quality meals for over a century. Their menu honors the key staples of the Mediterranean diet: vegetables, seafood, moderate amounts of meat and, of course, olive oil. Try the fish stew or pork belly confit and order some Dalmatian Swiss chard with potato as a side. Check out their daily choice of cakes for dessert and wash all of this scrumptious food down with a glass of local wine, Croatian beer or a signature cocktail.
