Why Travelers Love Restaurant Kadena

Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.

4.5 / 5.0(918 reviews)

We loved this restaurant so much, we were blown away when we arrived there. The photos do not do it justice. It’s a beautiful fancy restaurant with very helpful and attentive staff members. The food was amazing, we all enjoyed our food. We ordered lamb shank with mash potatoes, a rack of veal, turbot fish and we all loved our food. The atmosphere and ambience in this restaurant was wonderful. We were so lucky to have gotten a table without a reservation but to be on the safe side make a reservation for a table without a view and enjoy! The views from this restaurant are amazing it’s not on the beach but it overlooks the ocean/bay. Restaurant Kadena offers one of the best fine dining experiences in Split. The food is excellent, with a focus on fresh seafood and Mediterranean flavors, all beautifully presented. The view over the sea is stunning, especially at sunset, and the service is professional and attentive. It’s a bit more upscale, but perfect for a special evening. Exquisite cuisine, everything was delicious, from cold and warm seafood starters through the main course and tiramisu as a dessert. Attentive staff, what was missing was a non-alcoholic beer, there are people in this world who don't drink alcohol so I suggest that you serve at least one product of this type...

Don’t come for the view. They have lots of tables by the windows but have so many bushes blocking the beautiful view. What a shame. Our server was fantastic. The lamb was delicious and everything with it. The turbo filet was not spectacular, nor the sides with it. The lentils with it were hard as a rock and the green sauce was the strangest sauce I ever had. Very unbalanced. Bread was out of this world. The burrata was fantastic. Ceviche was tough to chew.
