Places to Eat

This is still our top1 reccommendation. The only restaurant directly located at the front of the promenade Riva which really offers fantastic food. On top they have nice waiters who get on very well with children, beautiful view to the sea and sunset. One of the rare restaurants that are run by real locals.

Monte is the first and only Michelin restaurant in Istria. If you like to experience an explosion of flavors of the utmost kind you have to visit this restaurant. We reccommend to reserve a table on time before your arrival! The menu with accompanying wines costs around EUR 150,00 per person and is worth the money.

Our top3 recommendation. A small and fine restaurant in industrial vintage style with a definitely different menu from that offered in other restaurants. They offer breakfast, lunch and dinner. However, we found the burgers from the lunch menu and the fish dishes from the evening menu much more refined. Especially tasty was the dessert "Green soufflé" made of pistachios with basil ice cream.

Mediterranean vintage style. You sit in the middle of the alleyways on beautiful colorful cushions on the stairs or on colorful chairs. If you don't need such an extensive breakfast as in the Hotel Adriatic, you've come to the right place. Freshly squeezed juices, warm sandwiches, sausage or cheese platters, croissants, jam, etc. are all available.

HARLEKIN is our neighbour offering homemade pizzas. We also recommend the "Cevape u lipinji" - Dragan makes the flatbread "lepinje" himself. If you want to eat a pizza and don't want to queue up at the other restaurants, this is the place for you. Our guests can also order a pizza when the restaurant is crowded, because then they serve the pizza in our guesthouse.

Drinks & Nightlife

Pefect location directly near the water to enjoy a drink. Lovely decorated space. We loved the freshly squeezed juices there. They also serve OLD PILOT'S GIN, from the Croatian premium quality distillery "Duh u boci".

Sightseeing

St. Euphemia is the patron saint of Rovinj, only 50 meters away from Casa Amando. The church is very impressive and the meadows around the church invite you to have a picnic and to relax while enjoying the open seaview…

Shopping

We are real fans of this concept store. In the front of the store they offer selected dresses & accessoirs from Croatian Designers. In the back of the shop there is an art gallery with many beautiful graphics and pictures by Croatian artists. All our graphics in the Boutique Guesthouse we puchased in this concept store. Not to mention the nice dresses I bought there.

The local milk & cheese producer LATUS offers degustations in its milk & cheese bar in Zminj. My personal favorite is the Curd (Skuta).
