Restaurant
Restoran Francesco
Sukošan

Restoran Francesco opened in Sukošan in 2012 and combines a sea-view terrace with Mediterranean cooking led by chef Frane Pavić. Fish, homemade pasta and Croatian wines are central to the restaurant's identity. The menu is broad enough for a leisurely seafood meal, a plate of pasta or a family table with different preferences.
Starters include sea-bass carpaccio, tuna tartare, octopus salad and cuttlefish arancini. Among the pasta dishes, pljukanci appear with scampi and clams, truffles or porcini. Black risotto and a seasonal vegetable risotto offer alternatives. For a main course, the restaurant lists grilled sea bream, tuna, squid and octopus, alongside shellfish prepared buzara-style and a fish platter for two.
Meat dishes include lamb chops, veal chop and Dalmatian pašticada. A separate children's selection lists breaded chicken and spaghetti bolognese. Desserts include homemade panna cotta, cake, chocolate soufflé and pancakes, giving the table several ways to finish without committing to a set menu.
The wine list is especially useful for exploring Croatia by the glass or bottle. It includes Dalmatian Pošip and Maraština, Istrian Malvazija, reds from the Benkovac area, and bottles from Slavonia and the Croatian Uplands. Ask the team which suits your chosen dish and preferred style. For a terrace table or a meal built around fresh fish, contact the restaurant in advance and confirm the day's availability.
