Restaurant Dubrovnik is a fine dining restaurant at Ul. Marojice Kaboge 5, a quiet lane inside the walled Old Town of Dubrovnik, a short walk from the Stradun. Set on a retractable-roof rooftop terrace above the stone houses, it pairs modern Croatian and Mediterranean cooking with Adriatic seafood and Dalmatian produce. Couples, food-focused travelers and celebration diners come for its romantic setting and polished, artful plating.
What to Expect at Restaurant Dubrovnik
The dining room sits on an elevated terrace whose roof opens on warm evenings and closes against rain or wind. The decor is smart and stylish, the stone walls around it are centuries old, and the setting feels intimate while staying a few minutes from the Old Town’s busiest streets. Service is formal but relaxed, which suits long dinners and special occasions.
The kitchen builds its menus around locally sourced ingredients: Adriatic fish and shellfish, Ston oysters, Pelješac wines, Dalmatian olive oil and seasonal vegetables. Diners can order à la carte or choose a multi-course tasting menu with wine pairings. Croatian labels lead the wine list. Vegetarian dishes are available, and the kitchen can handle most dietary requests if you mention them when you book.

Visiting Tips, Getting There & Nearby Pairings
Book ahead, especially from June to September, when evening tables fill days in advance. You can reserve online. A table around sunset is the most atmospheric option, and lunch is calmer and usually easier to get. Smart-casual dress fits the setting, and cards are widely accepted. Libertas city buses stop at Pile Gate, which is the easiest way in, since the Old Town is pedestrian-only and nearby parking is limited and expensive.
The Old Town has polished limestone paving, uneven lanes and frequent steps. The terrace sits above street level, so wheelchair users and parents with strollers should call ahead to ask about access. Before or after dinner, it is a few minutes’ walk to the Stradun, Dubrovnik Cathedral and the Rector’s Palace. The Old Port is a good spot for an evening stroll.
