    *I would go for zero star I ve I could* Rude waiter, undercooked chicken and bacon (see at the pictures) - that's my experience of that place. I don't have high expectations of any restaurants in a touristy place but St. Riva showed me I was right to have no expectations. Staff really unfriendly and unprofessional. The only good thing is about the place is the location and the coffee. Usually I don't write reviews, but I have to warn any other visitor for this place. There are better places to spend your holiday time.

    We wait during a long long time . Then cocktails were either way too strong, or with no alcohol in the mojitos We ended up being there for 1h40 in order to get 6 cocktails…

    We wanted to visit a bar, but ended up sitting inside for almost an hour and the waiters were not interested in serving us in helping us at all. We just left after an hour.

    The way they served my takeaway veggie burger is just awful. The entire foil was smeared with sauce. And I think on purpose. Because the sauce was even where it could not flow out of the burger. That is, the chef deliberately wrapped the burger in foil. Coated with sauce and once again covered with foil. Why? And the burger itself flies apart as soon as you unpack it. I paid 60 kuna and never ate because the whole burger was on the floor. I think the waiter's enjoy was ironic. Do not recommend. I can eat in other place. Not a problem.

    I had a wonderful evening! Vlatko gave us great recommendations and was an amazingly attentive server. There are many places in Split to have a dinner and drinks, but this was by far the best we experienced. Thank you Vlatko, and next time we are in Split we will be back!

    Breakfast delicious, coffee as well. The staff could be more friendly and professional. Prices comparable to other places ;)

    Had the basic burger. And basic is really basic. No fries no chips no frills, nothing. The price however was the opposite of basic. Which would be fine given the location and view but the burger tasted awful. Way too much salt and pressed meat. Not recommended. The waitress was very friendly and efficient.

    Best bar in Split! The food was tasty and served quickly. The waiters were very polite and proffesional. We got our drinks within 3 minutes. Waiter Karlo was the one who served us and I must say that he is the most polite and proffesional waiter that I have ever seen. Great place, a must go if you're in Split.

    Nice place, centrally located with nice view of Split's Riva. But we waited for the waiter quite long.

  • 5/5 Luigi L. 6 months ago on Google • 3 reviews
    A very pleasant place to sit and have a drink. The waiter Marko who served us and all the others are excellent, cheerful and smiling. The prices for this location are reasonable so I have no complaints. I look forward to returning.

  • 2/5 Johanna Von C. 7 months ago on Google • 3 reviews
    The view was nice and the waiter as well. But we honestly expected a bit more… We ordered 3 veggie burgers and extra fries because they weren’t included. 8€ for one tiny portion! The burgers didn’t taste bad in particular but they didn’t taste good either. They were really dry with basically no sauce and just a little cabbage, 3 slices of cucumber and one piece of lettuce. We don’t want to be mean to the waiters cause it’s obviously not they’re fault but that dinner was definitely not worth the price.

    I got diluted blue kamikadze, we didn’t even felt a little drop of vodka there. I do not recommend drinking there.

  • 3/5 Iveta I. 10 months ago on Google
    Don't accept cash and ATMs nearby charge 4 euro to take out money, or just dont work. I usually try to have cash with me but it was my last day and I didn't expect place in best location in Split not to have a bank terminal. In terms of the food, well, it is a cafe bar, shouldn't have expected much from their pizza. I would just go for a beer next time. The waiter was polite and nice.

  • 5/5 Norbert K. 8 months ago on Google
    Everything was very great, far beyond our expectations on a really hot and crowded day! The waitress was superfast and supernice, the food and the coffee was delicious and the amount was fulfilling. Thanks a lot for the staff! 🙏

  • 4/5 Vanessa O. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice place for an afternoon drink and enjoy the life on the Promenade while sitting in the shadow.

  • 5/5 Nikki V. 1 year ago on Google
    Cute and fun bar to drink at before going to the clubs! Overlooks the Riva and water

  • 2/5 Petra B. 1 year ago on Google
    Quite a dirty place, burnt toasts served to omelette. Cheapest place on the promenade but you get what you pay for…

  • 1/5 Emilia S. 1 year ago on Google
    It took long time till the waiter even noticed us. They are just focused on smoking and taking to each other. When we ordered drinks: cosmopolitan and Tom Collins. Cosmopolitan came virgin, and as you might know cosmo is quite strong cocktail so it was awful to just get cranberry juice. After noticing that the waiter just got angry and impolitely asked what do I want.

    Good atmosphere on the balcony if you want to relax with your friends and enjoy in a view. Excellent cocktails with quite ok prices.

  • 4/5 Jonas I. 5 years ago on Google
    Good value for money! Ordered a burger which had a good taste! The beef and fries were hit while the bread was stone cold! The burger itself had more bread than it should as it were twise as thick as the beef patty. In short, good for a quick meal while you plan to explore Split!

  • 4/5 alluman00 1 year ago on Google
    The food was okey for the price, maybe a little simple. Staff were polite.

  • 3/5 Xylia 1 year ago on Google
    Nice place for a cocktail in the afternoon - I enjoyed sitting on the cozy balcony looking down on the Riva. They also had a surprisingly great veggie burger & fries!

  • 4/5 David S. 5 years ago on Google
    Great port side bar/cafe. Get the pork chop and try to guess the sauce on the side.

  • 2/5 Miisa L. 7 months ago on Google • 2 reviews
    I’ve eaten better burgers at Mc Donald’s for much cheaper. The atmosphere is good but the food is bad. 8 euros for fries is a lot, considering that they don’t taste like anything.

🫤 Good food and drinks. The food portions are on the smaller side. The waitress added a 15€ tip to the bill when we wanted to pay by card without asking how much we want to give. We noticed because we checked the bill. He initially didn’t even wanted to change the bill insisting that that it is his ti...
