Restaurant Kornat The Best Restaurant in Zadar And Possibly Croatia….
During any visit to Croatia you must include Zadar on your itinerary. It’s a charming coastal town along the Dalmatian coast of Croatia which is beyond charming with amazing sites to see, delicious food & wine and wonderful people.
During my recent three night stay we experienced amazing food and my favorite meal of the Zadar visit (and probably Croatia for that matter) was at Restaurant Kornat Zadar. Not only was the food amazing, so was the service, and the team. Starting with our amazing server Vinja to the Owner Sandra, we loved everyone. Sandra is also a Sommelier so after realizing we were wine lovers visiting from California she guided us on an extensive by the glass wine tasting (trying 7-8 various wines).
What I really appreciated about this high-end restaurant (it’s known as one of the best restaurants in Croatia) aside from their food, was the accessible wine list. By this I mean there were amazing wines with varying flavors and varietals at affordable prices. We later realized this isn’t the case at all fine dining in the city. Some were double or triple the price per bottle for something similar, if not less delicious. I highly recommend including a meal at Kordat Restaurant if visiting Zadar. I promise you’ll love it and thank me for the tip! Liburnska obala 6, 23000, Zadar.

A chardonnay that Sandra introduced me to which I fell in love with. So delicious with light Oak Taste, subtle butter but not overpowering. The other wine shown is also a Croatian favorite we enjoyed.
The delicious Chocolate Cake (A must try we were told) with a delicious cake and rich chocolate frosting.
