  • 5/5 Sal S. 2 years ago on Google • 407 reviews
    Great local hotspot in Ohrid to enjoy excellent cocktails in a warm and friendly environment. Indoor and outdoor dining available and recently refurbished, very modern with high quality furnishings. Definitely a great place to catchup with friends from breakfast to dinner, just seconds from the lake, so you enjoy wonderful views. The team are very welcoming, bursting with positive energy, to make your visit more enjoyable. Primarily a fish restaurant and local Macedonian cuisine, also a hotel, rooms are very modern and spacious with spectacular views of the lake.

    Regional dishes very tasty. Salad with tomato, onion and dill fresh and refreshing. Beans with meat delicious, meat perfectly fried. Excellent location, super panoramic view of the lake

    This is my absolute favorite restaurant in Ohrid. The food is always fantastic and no matter what I order I am always delighted with my meal! Servers are also great and always efficient, especially Damjan, Tarik and Marco. Happy and polite. Can’t wait to return and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to anyone looking for somewhere to eat in Ohrid.

    Don't know how this got good reviews. Staff is looking bored or annoyed. The food is somehow even worse. Stay away from any chicken dishes. Food is drenched in fat, portions are small, meat is horribly dry. Not many tourist traps in Ohrid, most places are really decent, even at the hot spots. Do yourself a favour and walk on for a minute.

    Nice place right in the center of the town. I ordered pizza Romeo and Julie. It turned out to be big enough for one person. I found it good and tasty. Waiter was very polite and served quickly. In addition to my appetizing pizza I had a nice lake view.

    loving it for super nice and kind waiters, fast and always responsive ! good option for breakfast, it’s not always bright and understood how to make them but here you can feel that white cheese - protip: order some ajvar and let it kick you additionally as one should add some flavour and kick to the life !

    Not even worth a 1 star. Last week, me and my two friends had dinner (or tried to have dinner) at this restaurant and had one of the worst experiences ever. We were sat outside on the terrace where there were only two waiters around who clearly did not enjoy their jobs. In addition, the service was extremely slow. After an hour, we received a bowl of fries. We did not receive any plates, just cutlery and a bowl of fries. None of the food we ordered was served with it. After another 15 minutes, one of us got our main course while the other two were left empty handed. We repeatedly asked the waiter where the rest of the food was. As we were only a party of three, we did not expect the food to be served seperately?! When after another 20 minutes the rest of us received their food, it was not what we ordered. The meat was overcooked, the rest of the food was cold and it was different from what we ordered. We asked for a replacement and to talk to the manager, at which the staff ignored us. When walking inside to try and talk to the manager ourselves, he barely spoke to us and forced us to pay for the entire bill. They did not apologise to us, or take any responsibility for the bad service. The staff is rude in contact with tourists especially, not client centered at all, the manager is very egocentric and the food is extreme low quality. We would not recommend anyone to go and dine at this restaurant ever again. We have never been so shocked and disappointed with a restaurant experience. 0/5 stars.

    We ordered the warm starters platter and got a huge plate full of deep fried stuff: huge chunks of fried cheese, fried chicken, fried zucchinis, fried eggplants, fried olives (FRIED OLIVES!!!!! Didn’t even know, people would do such things to olives). Everything was way too fat, not delicious at all and we felt like we had just ordered a huge load of bad fast food. I‘m pretty sure, this was not typical Macedonian. Also, there was no draught beer, because it was off season. Maybe, we were just unlucky with our order; the pizza on the table next to us looked alright at first sight. Still, I definitely wouldn’t go here again. There are a lot of better places in Ohrid.

    it's great, but it's not for a family stay, there's a lot of noise from the disco downstairs, and music is outrageous until the morning hours.

  • 5/5 Piotr K. 9 months ago on Google • 30 reviews
    Great place, which is located near of promenade and Ochrid Lake with great dishes. I recommended the pork with regional sauce malascica.

  • 5/5 Zhen G. 3 months ago on Google • 12 reviews New
    Very nice food. I had a divine tomato soup and lovely chicken risotto. For less than 10 euro.

  • 2/5 Laura R. 4 months ago on Google • 12 reviews
    Place was great and service was good, I would recommended for drinks or cup of coffee but no more than that, we had food there and was bad plus really overpriced, I’m aware of the location however the risotto chicken was tasteless and not risotto at all, the “red rissotto” was rice with ketchup. Place and service are nice but food is not. Arvo drinks or cup of coffee definitely.

  • 5/5 Oliver G. 10 months ago on Google
    I didn't have the food, but it looked amazing (on other peoples plates), the beers are all freezing so you cannot ask for more, the cocktails were great too (my girlfriend said) and we enjoyed ourselves, you feel welcomed in all of North Macedonia and this place was no different, the best in Ohrid City i think

  • 4/5 Karel 1 year ago on Google
    The food was tasty, a feast for the senses, A culinary delight, no need for defenses. The environment was neat, a live band in tow, A perfect setting for a night's afterglow. The lake views, a sight to behold, A visual treat, a story untold. But the cigarette smoke, a bit overwhelming, A minor drawback, yet still worth dwelling.

  • 1/5 Jip L. 8 months ago on Google
    Worst experience ever. The meat was overcooked, chicken was tough and we could not eat it. When we want to order something the waitress just said no. Grumpy look and not open. Didn’t want to do her job at all. We were with three people, but after one person had ordered she just went off. They had screens where you could watch how they make their dishes, this was not representable at all. Overall it’s a tourist trap and do not eat here, there is much more delicious food to be found in Ohrid.

  • 4/5 Aleksandra A. 1 year ago on Google
    The best fish soup in Ohrid, however the restaurant needs to improve in terms of inventory. In pick season they didn’t have child chair, it was broken and they only had one for the whole restaurant 🙄

    I went here at night, because it was transformed into a club. Nice ambiance n stuff but the music was way too loud. I asked to turn the music down, but I got ignored. I write this the next morning and my head is still buzzing. What’s the point of such loud music, I could not even properly order something. Hearing damage is serious and not some joke.

    Food was yummy, but I got pulsing headache and an allergic reaction to the point that my gf called an ambulance for me and I always eat same food. I would thing it was just me but both me and my GF got bad diarrhea right after but she didn’t have an allergy just the diarrhea so something has to not be right. The only time when I had similar reaction was when I ate tuna that wasn’t super fresh and this time we got a tuna salad.

  • 1/5 Toni Z. 2 years ago on Google
    Went there this morning for a breakfast. The waiter spilled the entire bowl of hot broth over me and now all my clothes including my shoes are destroyed as the stains are permanent. I understand accidents happen but what I was devastated about is that the restaurant didn't do anything about it. The waiter didn't even apologize, he just ran away, some other staff members did say they were sorry but they said they didn't know what else to do. No one even attempted to clean the whole mess!!!!...luckily I have no burns as the soup was really hot...

  • 1/5 Predrag M. 2 years ago on Google
    Terrible service and the food is hit or miss. Our server was lost, 3 tables around us received there food before us even though we ordered at least 15 minutes before them. We waited for 50 minutes for our dishes. Me and my daughter ordered tortellini with beef medallions. The pasta was ok, tasteful and cooked right, but the beef medallions were not beef medallions, it was tough and chewy and NOT EATABLE at all. My daughter start spitting out the beef because was not eatable. I complained to the waitress and she after speaking with the chef came to our table and without asking wanted to take our plates. I said what are you doing, we will eat the pasta because we were hungry but not the beef, I am not waiting another 40 min for another dish, and I told her I need the prices of our dishes to be adjusted. After we were done she bring us the check and the 2 dishes were at full price, 650 MKD. I called the manager and explain the issue and he said that they inspected the meat when our dishes were turned in the kitchen and they didn’t see anything wrong! Really??? Nevertheless, I paid full price, no problem but I promise to him that I will never ever step foot in that place. Few waiters get around my table and listen, how stupid and unprofessional, and on the end they asked if I would care for coffee or desert on the house!!!! Are you kidding me!!! Stay away, there are many many nice places in Ohrid that will value your money and customer satisfaction.

  • 5/5 Diana T. 6 years ago on Google
    I was in Lihnidos in the end of August 2017 and had s very good start of the day with one of the breakfast options the bar offer. Everything was cooked well and the unlike most places in the Western Balkans the cappuccino was prepared in the correct proportion of milk and coffee. Highly recommendable because of the great view to the Ochrid lake!

👍👍 It's a nice place. Their pizzas are delicious. So is their pasta. Ohrid is one of the quality venues. Is it because it is in a back street by the seaside? What is the price and taste quality balance better than the others.
