Le Piaf

Northern Dalmatia


At the end of the causeway linking the town with a former island, this superb restaurant plates up a range of Croatian, Adriatic and Med favourites, despite its Gallic-sounding name. The pizzas are the best south of Šibenik, the pastas are well composed, and the meat and fish mains come in large portions.
