"We ordered the Angry Bird pâté with handmade bread, the green salad, and the ragù pasta. The pâté and homemade bread were unique, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. I highly recommend ordering them as an appetizer. The service was also excellent—friendly, attentive, and welcoming throughout the meal. Overall, a very enjoyable lunch experience."

"Incredible food, incredible people. MALA is the best server; so attentive, such good recommendations, perfect service. We had a large group that she handled flawlessly. I would recommend anyone to come here and enjoy all of the food, and the beautiful wines that they have on offer. The dessert was delicious as well! Mala made our evening perfect."

"Quality all around. Started with some really fresh swordfish ceviche (forgot to take a photo). The Miss Piggy is new to the menu but it will soon be a hit. The lamb ragu risotto was excellent and the cinnamon roll was a soft and creamy goodness."

"Fantastic experience at Corto Maltese! Ana, our waitress, was so welcoming and helpful, which made the evening even better. The food was outstanding — we had the lamb dish, ragu risotto, and seafood tagliatelle — all cooked to perfection with incredible flavors. You can really taste the homemade touch in everything, especially the fresh pasta made from scratch. A must-visit in Split!"

"The service was very good and were able to accommodate our group. One of us was also gluten free and was amazed by the hospitality and range of options available. The octopus was particularly tasty! There was not a single thing I could possibly ask for. If I could give more stars i would!"

"Great haunt for local cuisine and excellent vibes. Great food that tastes and feels like it could've been served at a Michelin fine dining restaurant but at reasonable prices. This restaurant revived the street and organised the Christmas market vibe in this part of town. The locals know it and come for mulled wine in December. Very vibey! Service staff are friendly, speak good English, and are willing to accommodate. English menu available too. Kitchen staff move with precision and speed - they totally know what they're doing! Pasta was excellent! Gnocchi was decent but I've had better. Salad was nice and refreshing. Dessert was the best - we couldn't stop eating! They have various drinks, from hard liqueurs to wine, and mulled wine in winter. Botanist gin for 9 euros. Beer for about 5 euros. Reasonably priced!"
