Lička Kuća Restaurant
Restoran Lička kuća
Veteran Lika country restaurant opened in 1972, close to Entrance 1; its signature dishes are bell-covered slow-roasted lamb and grilled trout.
Opened in 1972 in Rastovača near Entrance 1 of the national park, it is listed in most travel guides as the most representative restaurant in the Plitvice Lakes area. Its signature dish is peka lamb slow-cooked under a bell-shaped iron lid, which must be reserved at least three hours in advance. Without a reservation, you can order the Lički zavežljaj, meat and vegetables wrapped and slow-baked, and there is also grilled trout. Summer lunches are very crowded, so it is best to come before noon, after 2 p.m. or after 7 p.m., and to book ahead. Main courses cost about €12–22, though some reviews say it is pricey and slow to serve. The Jezero and Plitvice hotels nearby offer free shuttles.
Opening hours
Usually open from midday to evening, until about 10–11 p.m. in peak season; may close earlier from November to March, so call to confirm before visiting
