Once you've passed all the harbor restaurants, you come to the tavern at the end of the quay, close to the Franciscan monastery. The quiet, elevated terrace enjoys the generous shade of the pine trees and the view of the sea. Here, wood-fired cooking (outdoor barbecue) perfectly captures the flavors of southern meats, fish, seafood and vegetables. On the menu: tuna or swordfish steak, grilled calamari, seafood platter, as well as tuna tartare, spit-roasted suckling pig, pork ribs, sautéed potatoes and breaded eggplant with mozzarella.

The location is super with great views to behold and appreciate!
The gentleman at the door was fantastic. He greeted us inside and to the table and assisted us with lifting the pram up the step. The guys and the girl with the glasses were all so very very nice and friendly and more than willing to help and make our visit very pleasant. They were just super in every way, however the girl with brown/ginger dyed hair was cold, aggressive and not very nice to us at all. My wife asked for the dessert menu and this girl pushed it in my wifes hand aggressively and said "here". And when we asked for assistance a different time, she blanked us coldly and shouted for other staff to help us instead while he posed at the other side of the room
The food was lovely 4 for the steak. It was cooked medium/perfectly but a little over tenderised.

We ordered the bbq veal ribs and a skewer, which had chicken, pork and beef. The food wasn't great.
I understand restaurants slow cook ribs then reheated to order. I think the slow cook part was a few days old, and they were served warm.
Chicken on Skewer was OK. The beef and pork tasted like something that was lying around your fridge for a few days and about to go off or maybe thawed from frozen..
Pork and beef on a charcoal bbq is simple stuff, we were left very surprised with the result of our dining.

Very good fish special (BBQ)! The food, service and live piano in the background made it a very nice experience.

We reserved 4 portions of the suckling pig offered only a couple of days a week and it was the meal of the holiday.
The pork was cooked perfectly, served with roast potatoes from the pig juices and at €24 per person we all left utterly stuffed!
So glad we made the reservation and we will absolutely be back if we're ever in Cavtat again! ♥
