    One of the best meals we had in Croatia, and we had many good ones... This was excellent local food of sizable proportions combined with friendly as service and warm atmosphere. Certainly worth a detour for a visit here

    Very happy with the service and the food was very nice and tasty. They were very accommodating as we had kids with us and have immediately offered us a high chair. We had their specialty of the day, pljukanci (homemade pasta) with croatian mushrooms called vrganji, and boškarin (istrian breed of beef) carpaccio as starter dishes and then we had a veal knee which was literally to die for, so melty and soft! We also had a beef tomahawk and rump steak, all really delicious. We had their house wine Cabernet, which I enjoyed much better than the glass of Korlat's Teran I had after. For desserts, we had white chocolate and raspberry cake, pear and mascarpone crumble and pistachio ice-cream. Everything was absolutely lovely, but the pistachio ice-cream definitely wins the race! It was out of this world! Definitely a must try! Altogether, a really nice experience if you are into fine cuisine and would like to try a bit of everything as the staff was very accommodating and made main dishes as starters to share for us. They were very efficient and knowledgeable. Looking forward to be back.

    Absolutely amazing food! I had pizza and its by far the best in Rijeka and one of the best I’ve ever had. The other dishes also look amazing and apparently taste great aswell!

    Wow. Wow. WOW! Simply incredible meal with a fabulous view overlooking the water. Unsurpassed service. Each dish was delicious. The black risotto is spectacular. The beef tomahawk steak is more than enough for two and is one of the best we have ever enjoyed. Desserts are delightful. And the waiters can recommend good local beers and wines.

    We came here upon reccomendation from the Villa owner, and how we were surprised! It's very accomodating place, menu has a great selection of food, and the view from the top of the hill is just nice to see and chill. We took some appetizers, so we would reccomend trying out steak tartar, the BEST ever tried! Other than that, the steak, the grilled seafood - also very good.

    Fortica is a beautiful restaurant located in the picturesque town of Kastav, Croatia. The restaurant is situated at the top of a hill, which offers breathtaking views of the Adriatic Sea and the surrounding countryside. The restaurant has both indoor and outdoor seating areas, with a large terrace that provides the perfect setting for a romantic dinner or a special occasion. The menu at Fortica is a mix of traditional Croatian cuisine and modern European dishes, with an emphasis on fresh, locally sourced ingredients. The restaurant offers a variety of appetizers, entrees, and desserts, as well as a selection of wines and cocktails. The staff was friendly and attentive, and they went out of their way to ensure that I had a memorable dining experience. The restaurant's ambiance was also noteworthy, with tasteful decor that added to the overall elegance of the space.

    Made a reservation for 2 and were welcomed in a very unfriendly and agressive manner by the main waiter. After 15 Minutes during being completely ignored we left. Apparently tourists are not liked in Kastav.

  • 5/5 Andrea S. 1 year ago on Google
    Great food! Very nice staff! If you come to Kastav, and you're very very hungry this place is to-go.

  • 5/5 Alex W. 2 years ago on Google
    Excelent place to eat! Food is very tasty and the choice is great. Polite and friendly staff. Maybe it is a little bit problem to find parking place but when you manage it and you come in front of the restaurant you would be stunned by view on the Adriatic sea and surrounding islands. You should try it!

  • 5/5 Christian M. 2 years ago on Google
    Not the cheapest place but food more than justifies the price. If the weather is good i suggest sitting outside and also enjoying the view.

    Amazing food and great white vine (malvazija Bernobić).

  • 5/5 Yavuz A. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing gourme restaurant with a lovely terrace in shade and fantastic view.

  • 3/5 Danijel O. 2 years ago on Google
    Generic steak taste not sure about steak origin, but well grilled, rare, medium and well done. The terrace needs fewer and better quality tables, with table cloth hopefully. When you call for reservations, try to make sure that there's a parking lot available around the place, as it can get pretty crowded during the weekends and summer evenings. The staff is what makes a great experience, well mannered and quick service.

    Good selection of food. Risotto is especially great. Terrace is very cosy and has a seaview. Unfortunately coffee was bad. My wife refused to drink it, I did and had digestion problems afterwards.

👍👍 The best pizza in the area! I suggest to sit on the terrace, enjoy the breeze and the beautiful view. They have a wide selection of pizzas, and other meals such as salads, pasta, and risotto. The pizzas are fairly big, we took the small size (see photo). There are also a couple of parking spots just...

😠 For questionable reasons we could only order meat plates and one noodle dish, we decided to go and they even charged us for bottles of water that we did not even touch. 1 star rating regardless of how good the food might be due to lack of professionalism.
