Josic Restaurant and Winery

Very nice cellar and restaurant. Friendly, staff speaking croatian, german and hungarian. Nice food and fresh mafe fish soup. And good wines!

Definitely the best restaurant in Slavonia and Baranja. The staff is very polight and the food is to die for, chef Tomica is taking cooking to the highest level.

Josić restaurant in Zmajevac provides a memorable culinary experience with its carefully crafted 5-course degustation menu. The wine pairings complement each dish beautifully, enriching the overall dining encounter. While every course was noteworthy, the dessert was especially remarkable and left a lasting impression. A top recommendation for those exploring the Croatian culinary landscape.

I often pass through Slavonia, tried almost all the restaurants... but Josic... a little far from the main road, in a very nice street. A wonderful restaurant where we ate the best fish paprikash (and I eat it all my life at least once a week). Excellent soup, perfectly cooked fish, home-made noodles. Excellent appetizer, Slavonian specialty, excellent wine. They offer game, aged beef. In one word, perfection. Very friendly waiter. All recommendations.

Best duck and wine I have had in Eastern Europe. This lovely gem Located on a mountain is amazing! Get the smoked dishes and open fire or “bell” cooks.

Outstanding hidden gem located in corner of Croatia. In the middle of nowhere is this delicious restaurant located in almost an outdoor museum. Very cute exterior and interior perfect for winter or summer. We made reservation but not sure if always needed, as there is plenty of seating. Food was delicious, we had meat and fish. Also on site is a winery and wine tasting. Therefor the menu also has many wine offerings. Friendly staff. Menu in English.

I visited from Canada and had the best dining experience of my life! We had a tasting menu that included three appetizers, two entrées and a dessert. The flavor combinations were incredible, the servers were fantastic and attentive, and the Head Chef came to our table to ensure we were having a great dining experience. Cannot recommend this restaurant enough!

Fantastic food (had excellent duck perkelt), fantastic wine (try 2022 welschriesling aka grasevina, a must have), and very friendly staff. Fully recommended, we also bought nr. of their wines to try at home :) Cheers and must visit when in Baranja/Zmajevac!

Great vine and very good ambient. The food was delicious. The staff is friendly. The ambient is rustical and traditional for Croatian culture. Also try the soup it's tasty.
I recommend this place for everyone, couples, families...
Only thing to look out is the parking space. There is not enough of it on a busy day.
The cellar for vine tasting is just around the corner, try it you will not regret it.

Awesome location - really excellent local specialities combined with TOP service. You will need to book quite in advance, as they are very popular. Is you would like to get this awesome local speciality „carp on a fork“ you will need to order this 24h upfront. Also for theother specialities Restaurant Josić is leading the pack in Baranja region and even far above. Really love this place 🤗

Great ambiance and amazing food and wine. We had smuđ, the fish, and it was delicious. Paired with pinot, a great choice. The dessert was also nice.

I don't know where to begin... The restaurant and winery are beautiful, just coming towards and seeing the flowers, grapevines and tables with decorations made us feel welcomed. Before lunch we tried some of their wines, the somelier was very profesional but friendly at the same time and opened to any questions. Rosé wine blew me away, it is beautifully aromatized with roses, raspberries and strawberries (if i remember correctly). Truly amazing!
Now the food, i have to say well beyond our expectations. Our dishes were perfect, and every components of our meals were well seasoned and cooked just right.
Special 5 star review for our waiter Goran, who made sure everything was right at all times.Goran was very welcoming, professional, plesent to talk to. He mentioned how the restaurant was missing some staff but we didn't even notice because he made sure everything was in place as always. ❤

The food was delicious, the wines divine and the service was on point!

Very nice place and great wine. Fiš paprikaš was delicious !
must visit !

Excellent experience, wine tasting is a must, the ambience in the restaurant is superb as is the food with local specialities

Ambiance, food and staff are really great. The prices are affordable for such a place. Next to the restaurant there is a winery and cellar so you can taste and buy their wine which is also very good!

Very good restaurant, we felt very welcome by the waiter as well as the winery sommelier. You should absolutely do the tasting of the wine, and maybe buy a couple of bottles! The history is amazing and the dishes are just tasty (and not expensive at all). I was shocked that it doesn't have any michelen star or at least international recognition.

Great place with great food and wine.
Pleasant atmosphere and friendly staff.

Had a great time visiting! Everything we ate was delicious and the wine was out of this world. Hope to come again as soon as possible.

Excellent sevice by Goran and fantastic food, highly recommended.
