Proto Fish Restaurant
Riblji restoran Proto
An established seafood restaurant in the Old Town founded in 1886, featured in the Michelin Guide and famous for its charcoal-grilled octopus and fresh fish.
Opened in 1886, Proto is located at the intersection of Široka and Vara streets in the Old Town. It features a street-level terrace, an indoor dining room, and a second-floor terrace, with Michelin particularly recommending the second floor. The menu focuses on the fresh catch of the day, prawns, and charcoal-grilled octopus, paired with organic vegetables from local gardens; Gault&Millau also highlights the octopus salad and baked Mali Ston oysters. The local traditional dessert, Dubrovnik's caramel pudding (rožata), is not to be missed. Booking in advance by phone is recommended. The average cost is about €50–100 per person. It is a few minutes' walk from Pile Gate along the main street, Stradun.
