Fantastic food in the narrow streets of HVAR, right behind the port and the main square. Honest prices and the food is superb! Just be aware of fairly large portions so don’t order too muchHad octopus pasta and shrimp buzara pasta with a side Greek saladDelicious!

I was truly impressed by the friendly and family-like service at Restaurant Junior in Hvar. We followed the waiter’s recommendation—and it turned out to be the perfect choice. The seafood was freshly caught, the dish was absolutely delicious, and the atmosphere was just amazing. This is exactly how you imagine a restaurant in Croatia to be. I’ll definitely be coming back to Junior on my next visit to Hvar!

We liked the atmosphere so we decided to eat there and we didn’t regret it! The food was delicious, the staff is kind and well organised and the prices are fair! Also, a big plus is that you can pay with a card (which isn’t the case in so many other places in the city). Better make a reservation for dinner after 8 p.m. because that’s when it gets really crowded. We spent around 115 for a seafood platter for 2, drunken octopus, shrimps with pasta and a bottle od wine. We are for sure coming back!

Recommend - Authentic sea food & attentive and service & lovely atmosphere!We tried drunken octopus and tuna steak and can recommend it! reservations were possible until 7.30pm - if you arrive later/ without reservation, you likely will need to wait a bit but it’s definitely worth it!

The drunken octopus pasta has a great local flavor—really unique and delicious! The beef was well-cooked but still super tender. The vibe of the place is chill, and the service was really friendly.
