Boban

I have come here with my family including my toddler ( under 3) a few times during the Christmas time. Although we’ve seen waiters rushing around and the restaurant is packed the hostess has always made an effort to find us a table for lunch/ dinner. Waitstaff is Professional and attentive and menu is versatile with lots of creative dishes suitable for meat, veggie or fish lovers. Highly recommend this restaurant in Zagreb!

One of the best dining experiences in Zagreb! Everything here is top level, including very professional service. Food is really amazing, wine list is also very good. Good selection of spirits too. Prices are acceptable for city center and the quality provided. No parking around so try to get here by taxi or public transport. Make sure you book the table in advance as the place is very popular.

We dine in this restaurant twice while staying in Hotel Dubrovnik last week. The service is really good when it is not too crowded. We had lamb loin, Lagsana, Aged beef and Pork loin, cauliflower soup and pumpkin soup. Everything cooked to our liking and perfection. Though the assorted bread is not the main but we love the bread too. Waiters are courteous and professional. I think they deserve the highest rating amongst all the restaurants that we have visited in this trip. Price is reasonable. We will be definitely be back again.

Boban in Zagreb delivered a satisfying dining experience, earning a solid 4 out of 5 stars. I ordered the Black Tagliatelle with Octopus, and it was very tasty. The pasta was perfectly cooked, and the octopus was tender and flavorful, making for a dish that was both delicious and memorable. The combination of flavors really hit the mark, and I thoroughly enjoyed every bite. The interior of the restaurant is quite classy, with a refined atmosphere that adds to the overall dining experience. The service was good, with the staff being attentive and making sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal.

Boban Restaurant in Zagreb is a fantastic dining spot! The food is fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented, with a great variety of dishes. The cozy ambiance and attentive staff create a welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommended for an enjoyable meal in the city!

We had dinner here in a bigger group during a recent conference. The food was great and I enjoyed all the dishes I had, including the starter (cauliflower soup), the main (black tagliatelle with octopus 🐙, cherry tomatoes 🍅 and basil 🌿) and the dessert (crumble with plums). The quality of the ingredients came through very nicely and I particularly liked the main and dessert. The atmosphere is very nice and we were seated downstairs in a scenic vault. The only complaint, which results in a deduction of one star for an otherwise very good dining experience, was the long wait. The food took forever to arrive and by the time we reached the mains and desserts, the restaurant was already relatively empty. The service was professional and friendly though. The prices are on the higher end for Zagreb but you pay for the quality.

Fantastic restaurant and an even more fantastic dessert. The meringue cake is an absolute must. Book in advance to get a table. The Risotto was excellent

A Taste of Tradition and Excellence in the Heart of Zagreb Restaurant Boban, established in 1995 by the legendary Croatian football captain Zvonimir Boban and his father Marinko, is a true gem in the heart of Zagreb. With nearly three decades of tradition, the restaurant has mastered the art of Mediterranean cuisine with a particular emphasis on Italian dishes. During my visit, I had the pleasure of trying their "Rustica" dish – an excellent combination of tender steak slices served with roasted potatoes, arugula, red radicchio, and cherry tomatoes, all brought together with a rich, reduced homemade sauce. The steak was perfectly cooked and exceptionally juicy, offering a melt-in-your-mouth experience. The balance of flavors and textures was impeccable, showcasing the kitchen’s skill in merging traditional recipes with modern culinary techniques. My colleagues chose the Roasted Salmon with handmade gondolas stuffed with fresh ricotta and spinach, as well as the Sea Bream Fillet on a cuttlefish and fregola sarda ragout. Both dishes were incredibly tasty, with carefully selected ingredients that perfectly highlighted the rich and balanced flavors. In addition, the wine list offers an excellent selection of Croatian wines that further enhance the culinary experience. If you’re looking to indulge in refined Mediterranean flavors while enjoying a warm and inviting atmosphere, Restaurant Boban is the place to be. A must-visit for anyone wanting to experience culinary excellence rooted in tradition! Five stars all the way.
