Alavija Café

A hidden gem of taste and smell !

It happens only a few times in my life that I am surprised and amazed by a gastronomic experience. And even in that case, when you think that is not possible in a place like the beautiful and romantic island of Silba.

Consequently, we then understood why we had to wait a while for a free table. The food was indescribably delicious and perfectly seasoned. The appearance of the food on the plate was a masterpiece, but above all, the perfect tuning of all taste components, the unique texture made it a unique experience. In addition, pleasant staff, service with fluent German and English.

A perfect experience and we will definitely come back here!

A small restaurant on a balcony/terrace with a great view over the ocean. Perfect for a sunset dinner. They have few places, so it is not a guarantee to get a table. The food is tasty and extraordinary, but on the pricy side. If you‘re anchoring for the night, it’s however a great recommendation!

Superb fish dishes! We came just for a beer and stayed for dinner not knowing what will follow.
All the plates were beyond what we could expect in regular Mediterranean restaurant. Yes, it's a bit pricy, but the taste is definitely worth your money.

Best food on Croatian soil! Amazing lamb, delicious brownie. Very nicely interpreted meals with beautiful finishing and garnished with a picture perfect sunset! Made our day.

Amazing view, amazing food. I went two nights in a row, everything was delicious and prices are not crazy, i would say best place to eat on Silba. Also they accept cards.

It was extraordinary delicious.
Everthing was perfect, the vine, the serivce and the food.

One of the best meals I've ever had in Croatia. Fabulous and unexpected ingredients, carefully cooked and beautifully presented. Fine dining at local restaurant prices. Easily the best restaurant on Silba.

I loved this place so much I wish I could give it more than 5 stars. First of all, they're quite eco friendly with paper straws in (amazing) cocktails and glass straws in hot beverages.
Second, did I mention the cocktails are great? I've tried Hawaiian and Blue lagoon from the standard cocktail menu and Tropical strawberry and Italian sunrise that are quite unique. Beware, Italian sunrise is a bit on the bitter side, not sweet.
The staff is always very polite and in a great mood and they seem to be happy working there.
They offer ice cream as well but I haven't tried it this year but I think I saw people carrying scoops in paper cups with bamboo spoons.
The view is the best you'll get on Silba and makes this the best place for morning coffee or evening drinks.
The food is also delicious and fresh, served in nice traditional plates. Unfortunately, it smelled too good to wait and take photos so you'll have to take my word for it.
Prices are usual for Dalmatian coast and you get 5% discount for cash payment (at least in the bar). We've visited Silba the year before and this place was great before but even better now.

Loved the place! Great food, great view.

Great fish! Friendly staff, must book ahead.

Best food. Very nice place with good service

One of the very best tuna steaks I had so far. Btw, it's a house speciality. Besides having lunch here, it's a great place just to have a coffee or drink, enjoy and relax.

Incredible service and spectacular meals. All around amazing. Menu has been updated and offers incredible seafood and desert. One of the best meals I have had in Croatia!

Very nice place with amazing food!
If you stay on Silba you should visit this place😊

Such a lovely place

Great service, great location, only a few tables, so you must call to make a reservation. Pozdrav iz Cleveland

Everything about it is calming and friendly - the staff is really nice and the location is perfect (you can look at all the ships coming to the island, or just enjoy the sound of the Adriatic, or in the evening, you can have amazing cocktails). And the prices are reasonable

Top notch restaurant!

Amazing service and super friendly staff, food was so good that there is no words to describe it!

The restaurant is a little gem. Great food and beautiful view. On an expensive side but worth it. Reserve in advance.
