About Us

Warm family hospitality,
one of the best views on the coast

Located in the heart of a Dalmatian pine forest right on the seafront, Restaurant Illyrian is part of Illyrian Resort and built around warm family hospitality.

Our open kitchen prepares each dish with fresh ingredients from the island of Brač, bringing together tradition, quality, and local flavor.

A Dalmatian Tradition

Croatia's most iconic slow-cooked meal

Ispod peke means "under the bell" is one of Croatia's most traditional meals and a must-try while visiting Dalmatia. Veal or octopus is slowly cooked for hours with potatoes, seasonal vegetables and Mediterranean herbs beneath a heavy iron bell surrounded by glowing embers.

The slow cooking makes the veal beautifully tender and the octopus soft and succulent, while the potatoes absorb all the rich flavours and cooking juices. This meal must be ordered at least one day in advance.
