If you want wonderful food, hospitality from an owner who takes joy in the pure pleasure of cooking in a restaurant in his family for almost a century, to the most stunning views in Pula — youre as lucky as I was to happen upon this amazing restaurant!

Excellent service, with friendly and helpful staff, beautiful restaurant and decor. Stunning food. Toilets could've been better for the quality of the rest of the venue. 5/5 despite the not so fantastic toilets.

Menu is available in many languages also.

Wow. What a fantastic evening. Just a great experience. Our waiter was THE BEST, the meal was AMAZING and the ambience was OUT OF THIS WORLD. Istria has delivered on every front 👍

Must visit in Pula! Lovely restaurant and definitely one of the best I've been to. Homemade food, cozy ambience and heartwarming service. You can really feel the passion of the owner (waiter and cook all on his own) and the time he is investing to run the restaurant. Literally everything is self-made, even the paintings on the wall. We had the Gnocchis with Truffles and the lavender icecream, which is combined with figgs and orange slices. Both were absolutely delightful. It is one of the main reasons to come back to Pula some day and I'm already looking forward to that.

Nice small Hosteria in Stoja with perfect ambiente. Delicious fresh catch of the day with recommendations from the chef and cook himself. I highly recommend this place.

Fantastic place with magnificent view at the Adriatic sea with suprme service and fabulous supper with home specialty "ice cream of lavander"!!!
Top, c ya...

Really delicious domestic food with a wonderful view on the harbor! The fish was excellent.

Home atmosphere, warm and inviting with superb taste of domestic food!!! Bravo for the Owner of Gina Restaurant 👌💪🏼❤🎵🍷🥂

Best dinner and service during our visit in Pula.

Can't rate this beautiful place highly enough. We stayed close by and visited twice during the holiday. The food was amazing and great value for money. The waiter was extremely helpful and friendly. If you go make sure you take a look inside. The first night we just ate outside and never realised how incredible it was inside.

Best restaurant in Pula! The views are amazing, the interior is absolutely splendid, the food is delicious and the staff are friendly and attentive. And still reasonable priced! We had such a wonderful evening! Cannot recommend enough.

We ate here 3 nights in a row, as it was 2 mins from our airbnb but also because we fell in love with the place. The host was incredibly friendly and the food was devine. It felt like we had a home cooked meal, each time. The seafood was fresh and delicious, the bread was hot out the oven and each dish was better than expected. If we we're still in Pula, we'd continue eating there.

Edit: 9 months later, we are back in Croatia (Split & Dubrovnik). We've had pašticada 3 times and Gina's is still the best (we ate it twice at Gina's).

Excellent in every way. The food was delicious and the staff attentive and friendly. I have been visiting Pula in 8 years now, and can confidently say that this is one of the best restaurants in Pula.

A charming and cozy place where to taste seasonal and local dishes, especially the traditional Istrian prosciutto-ham (difficult to find in many restaurants). Great collection of local organic wines and an amazing house-made bread, a perfect match with some Istrian olive oil. Gina is a great escape for a romantic evening... Ohh, and if you will still have some room in your belly you should try the wonderful semifreddo dessert with a lavender essence, warm figs jam and toasted pine nuts. Fabulous!

Lovely restaurant...best food we had in Pula. Very friendly waiter. Would definately recommend.

Excellent food and service. Lovely location. I recommend the seafood pasta.

Great food, atmosphere and service. Been there many times, impressed every time.

Extremely friendly service with a smile. Great food and nice rustic feel inside the restaurant.

Excellent service, tasty istrian meals and astonishing view of the sea.

Friendly staff, great food and for good value. Definitely recommend.
