Reviewed 21 August 2024

Nice view towards the bay of Budva and Sveti Stefan. But not more. Quality of Dodd was very bad- spaghetti with seafood served in a bowl you would use to store in the fridge with very small and less seafood. The fries floated with oil and the grilled vegetables were not tasty. But the server and the owner were very friendly. We would not recommend!

Great place - we ate twice! Exceptional views, service and food. House white very nice. Octopus salad, seafood spaghetti where the pick. Owner is a character and very welcoming. It is cash only!

Driving to this restaurant we were already sure, that we will eat well, because usually such off-road restaurants offer a food of a better quality than in city centers.
And we were not disappointed: a very nice waiter, excellent kajmak and fish, very tasty seafod pasta, wine and desserts.
When you add a beautifull view from the lovely terrace, you need nothing more.
The owner takes a walk from time to time and talks to the guests, what is also nice.
And for me personally the best recommendation were two lovely ladies in the open kitchen at the terrace, who were preparing for us all those marvellous dishes. Thank you!!!

We were exhausted after a long day of traveling and didn’t quite know what to expect. Wow! The vista, the welcome, both incredible. The owner greeted us personally and we sat.

The food was not as cheap as we were expecting with the location being in a small village but we accepted the cost and continued. But it was worth it as the quality and quantity of the food was superb. My partner had the lamb which was excellent, I had the cevapi, which was very tasty.

The homemade wine and olive oil was also excellent. A real hidden treasure.

The staff was very kind, but that’s where the positives about this restaurant end. The food is terrible—low quality, heavily overpriced, made with cheap ingredients, and cooked unprofessionally, resulting in an awful taste. For example, they serve the cheapest and unhealthiest white bread from a low-end bakery, instead of the legendary Montenegrin homemade bread that other national cuisine restaurants offer. The fish smelled of sea dirt, and the marinade was made with sunflower oil instead of olive oil. The salad was over-marinated with the cheapest vinegar and unhealthy sunflower oil (I haven't seen anyone use sunflower oil in salads since the wartime over 30 years ago). Olive oil is a culinary basic and a standard for salads everywhere.

The worst part is that this awful food costs about 40% more than at any other restaurant serving national cuisine in Montenegro (e.g., 65 euros for a kilogram of fish, for two medium to small sea bass fish. Fried, you won’t get more than 300-400g of fish for 65 euros).

I also feel that the extreme kindness of their staff was just a show to make up for the awful food. I felt ripped off and disappointed. Avoid this place! It was the worst restaurant food I had in all of Montenegro by far.
