Rustic riverside restaurant on the margins of the densely rushed wetlands, close to the Bosnian border - allow plenty of time if crossing for snail speed bureaucratic stamping of passports...
Our lunch was enlivened by a wedding anniversary party with accompanying male singers & accordion singing traditional songs.
Parking difficult.
Modern, well displayed Roman museum opposite gives discount to diners.

We stopped for late evening meal after a long day on the road. We were made welcome and served some really delicious cream tomato soup and salad. The next morning we returned for breakfast and and ordered omelettes (ham and cheese) which were very nice and we appreciated the flavour of the local cheese. That was all "washed down" with excellent coffee. Good food - reasonable price -gracious host.

Restaurant Pecina is located in Ploce where the A-1 Hwy ends and before you get to the marshy area of the Neretva River. There are no gas stations/ rest stops with food on a long stetch of the new Hwy before Ploce. Pecina has a lovely, vine covered Terrace, a dark bar that looks like a cave and two indoor dining areas (one with the cave theme). We ate there on our way to Dubrovnik and again, on the way back.We were pleasantly surpised both times! On the first visit I had a very tasty tomato based seafood risotto and my husband had an excellent grilled shish-k-bob. On our 2nd visit we started with an exceptionally good marinated seafood salad. As an entree my husband had the Adriatic squid. He had a very generous portion of 8 or 9 very tasty squid. I had a wood grilled Bass which was one of the freshest, tastiest fish I had the whole trip. (That is really saying something because we ate a lot of fish!). On top of this the prices are very reasonable for the quality and quantity of food served.
My only complaint is about the bathrooms. Although they are basically clean and provide a generous supply of toilet paper and paper towels they are dingy and dark. They need a fresh coat of paint and better lighting. In addition, the 2nd time I was there the toilet seat was off in the ladies room.

We stopped on our way through and really enjoyed our meal the host was lovely the food fantastic and the price very reasonable. There was one slight problem that the credit card machine wasn't working but we managed to scrape together enough cash and as an apology was offered free coffee and cake, if your passing pop in for lunch it would be hard to be disappointed.

Me and my husband visited restaurant Konoba Narona when returning from our trip from Serbia, Macedonia, Greece, Albania , Montenegro and Croatia. Our last stop was for lunch in Croatia. We wanted to eat some traditional fish jegulje from the Neretva river. We asked the locals where to eat the best fish and they send us to the right place. The restaurant is situated near the river. We were siting inside near the fire place. The friendly owner served us first local proschutto which was delicious with some fresh home made bread. For a main course we ordered jegulje on grill and they were the the best in my life. Fresh, perfectly grilled and served with some local vegetables.We decided to take some local wine, so we ordered some Žilavka from the region of Bosnia-everything together-price,service,taste, value -perfect. So my advice if you are in the neighbourhood or even if you need to make some extra kilomethers its worth going. We will certanly go back. Compliments.

Food was good, selection nothing out of the ordinary but everything on the menu was good. Better to have dinner as it gets very hot during the day, ceiling fans might help if installed.
