Vallis Aurea

Very nice dining experience. My husband and I enjoyed sharing our dish, stuffed pork loin (picture shows the half portion), our daughter had a huge burger (she asked for it to be cooked medium well, came out kinda rare). Server was good.

I have ordered a Risotto with wild mushrooms and truffle cream, it didn’t taste truffle at all. Really disappointed!

This little restaurant is next to the bottom of the Funicular. It has a stylish modern and quiet interior with spotless toilets. Our server David was very sweet and made us welcome. It has a simple but varied menu with very reasonable prices. I chose the arrabbiata pasta with pork tenderloin and my companions the chicken salad and burger respectively. All were very good. The chicken was great and much better than the chlorinated chicken we are used to in the US. I was asked if I wanted less spicy or “normal” spicy. I like very spicy and asked for the normal, but although it was tasty there was no spice at all to my spice loving palate and the pasta was slightly overcooked. Hence 4* instead of 5*. Highly recommended.

Great Croatian style food beautifully cooked. Friendly staff, good service. Even let us try the house wine before buying. Highly recommended for a good casual meal where the service is very good.

Nice, tasty traditional food in Zagreb city centre, in a cozy atmosphere
