Enoteka Terra
This cellar wine bar located in Bačvice is something of a local secret. Enjoy wonderful Croatian vino by the glass as you nibble on tapas Croatian style. The varied menu features the likes of spicy Slavonian sausage, pršut (air-dried ham), as well as dishes infused with pungent Istrian truffles.

Kod Jože
A strong contender for the title of Split's best seafood restaurant, this rustic konoba (traditional Croatian bistro) serves excellent seafood dishes.
