Discoverd this place from a recommendation of a friend, And been coming here 5 times already and many more to come! From the moment you step from the dingy to the shore Antea is there to welcome you with a big friendly smile. I trust him with every weeks order, i don't choose and just let him do what he does best, and that is service. Every week the food was phenomenal , atmosphere is amazing, and views are just so good, and your boat is just there on the mooring ball you can see it from dinner. Small, family style dinners, with fresh local food and amazing service, thank you Konoba Ferma for delivering amazing service and food week after week :) See you soon !

Simply wow! A limited menu but that's all for the better. Delcious food, wonderful warm service. The staff personally greet you and shake your hands. The setting is divine but it is a bit of a challenge navigating the long winding rocky roads to get there. Still once you are eventually there it is well worth it. Highly recommended. A jewel literally off the beaten track!

Dream lunch, where to start! First of all online communication and reservation process was seamless. Then to start with the hosts, amazing people; welcome and warm, you have a feeling like you have been there thousand times already. And then the food, top of the class, from ingredients used for preparation. We had octopus under the "peka" and it was supreb. Plus to mention place has more than moderate prices for the service they offer and they offer free mooring if you are coming with the boat. Kudos!

We went here during our one week sailing trip. This was by far the best restaurant we had during our week. Family run restaurant, using only local products as a sort of cooperative. The host was very friendly and the food sublime. Even the bread and sides are top notch, something you don’t usually get with similar style restaurants. I can recommend anybody to stop here by boat. They have a few buoys for when you eat at the restaurant

I visit Croatia regularly, but this restaurant has a unique rustic charm that truly stands out. We were a group of friends from all corners of the world, and when we shared the highlight of our holiday, the unanimous answer was this lunch. Congratulations to Ante and his family for creating such a special restaurant. The octopus peka was absolutely spectacular, and we all can’t wait to come back next year!

If you’re looking for the freshest seafood by the sea, this restaurant is an absolute gem. Abit of a rocky drive down but honestly worth it, we absolutely loved the view of the seafront and the locally sourced food. Possibly the best food I have ever eaten! This is not one to miss when in split :)

This restaurant is the best restaurant I have visited in Croatia in a long time. Amazing view and atmosphere. Very kind owner and his family. Appetizers and octopus peka was beyond delicious along with their homemade bread. I sincerely recommend

A truly special place! The location right by the sea is magical, with a relaxed and authentic atmosphere. The food is fresh, full of local flavors, and beautifully presented – from the starters with cheese and prosciutto to the main dishes that really capture the taste of Dalmatia. The service is warm and friendly, making you feel at home from the first moment. Perfect spot to enjoy a peaceful dinner with family or friends while watching the sunset. Absolutely worth a visit! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
