What people say

Mediterranean restaurants are known for their delicious and healthy cuisine, featuring fresh ingredients and bold flavors. Ragusa Restaurant & Bar in Melbourne's Nelson Place is no exception. This charming eatery specializes in traditional European dishes with a Croatian twist, making it a must-visit destination for foodies.

What sets Ragusa apart is its commitment to using only the freshest ingredients in its dishes. From succulent seafood to hearty meats, every dish is prepared with care and attention to detail. The menu features classic Mediterranean favorites like grilled octopus, lamb cutlets, and seafood risotto, as well as unique Croatian specialties like cevapi (grilled sausages) and sarma (stuffed cabbage rolls).

But it's not just the food that makes Ragusa stand out - the atmosphere is equally impressive. Housed in a beautifully restored 19th-century bank building, the restaurant exudes old-world charm with its stone walls, wooden beams, and cozy seating areas. And with a selection of fine Croatian wines, spirits, and beer on offer, it's the perfect place to unwind after a long day.

Whether you're looking for a romantic dinner for two or a fun night out with friends, Ragusa Restaurant & Bar is sure to impress. With its delicious cuisine, warm hospitality, and stunning waterfront location, it's no wonder this Mediterranean gem has become a favorite among locals and visitors alike.
