Vila Velebita Bistro

Great food and fantastic service by Mladen! We stopped here after a day and politics and tried a variety of local dishes. Very tasty!

We stopped there about 4pm after spending 3 hours in Plitvice NP. Staff welcoming and made us vegatarian pizzas. They were tasty and good size.

We tried lamb chops and veal chops. Both main dishes are good, with generous portions. The waiter is also very warm and nice.

My wife and I stopped by this place based on the positive reviews, and we couldn’t be happier we did. The food was phenomenal, and our waiter was incredibly friendly, offering fantastic recommendations. He even brought out a pumpkin seed oil with some salt to pair with our bread—it was absolutely excellent. It was an authentic Croatian meal, and we felt so welcomed at the restaurant. Everything was perfect across the board!

We had a nice dinner at Vila Velebita with a tasty pizza and pasta, followed by a classic tiramisu. Our waiter Mladen gave us some great suggestions, including a flavorful dark beer that went well with the meal. Friendly atmosphere and helpful service. We’re glad we have another evening here — we’ll definitely come back tomorrow.

The food was amazing!! We came here after visiting Plitvice, and the service was timely and friendly!! Thank you to Mladen we had a delicious Croatian lunch and experience!

A memorable meal and fun experience. We arrived here after hiking g all day at Plitvice National Park. We had lamb, veal, soup, salad, and a traditional desert with Asa cheese. It was all very good and the hospitality was much appreciated as well. Highly recommend!

Mladen was GREAT! He helped make our experience flawless and was polite the entire dinner. He was even great with our kids. We came with a party of 17 and he did great. Food was all delicious and fast. Hot to the table! Thank you Mladen!

Wonderful and friendly service combined with tasty food. From the wine suggestion our server Mladen made and main course recommendations, this meal was everything we wanted and needed. Good prices and options. You could tell this place is popular due to how busy it was compared to other restaurants near by. They also have friendly neighborhood kitties which was a fun surprise. Definitely recommend. Were we here another night we’d likely go back again.

This little restaurant is amazing. Not the fanciest but for a small restaurant out in the country the service was as good as the food. Amazing! On top of the great service there are some friendly local cats hanging around looking for some pets. Our server was Mladen so if you are Lucky to get him, you will be in great hands.

The food here is very regional and the quality and taste excellent. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Here you can stop at any time due to the easy accessibility.

It's a road restaurant but the quality exceeded any expectations. Great food, amazing meat, and really friendly service. Our waiter Mladen was helpful and pleasant. Big recommendation to visit this place.

Absolutely superb! Richard the waiter was amazing. He chatted to me in English while answering Italian customers at the same time! Food was excellent, I chose a chicken salad that was perfect. Best food I've eaten in Croatia.
