We had dinner one evening here and had picked it out as we had noticed it was always busy and had a lovely atmosphere. We luckily got the corner table outside which was also great for people watching. The food and service was great and...the wine was delicious!More

The food is awesome, and it is one of the few restaurants that allows you to pay with debit or credit cards. The staff is very polite and the location is welcoming Recommended

A lovely restaurant on a tucked away patio. My pepper steak was tender and tasty. They don’t accept reservations but we were able to get a table without waiting. But it still was a full house. Good food nice atmosphere, competent service.

By far THE best meal of all in the town during our ten day stay. We went along a second time because it was so brilliant and that is against other high quality places in Rivinj The things that make you t stand out are...Exceptional service from a family team Wonderful high quality food Brilliant value for money You cannot pre book but by turning up and waiting for a slot the team look after you in a professional way and ensure that you are looked after I cannot rate this highly enough… just go there and enjoy the experienceMore

The restaurant is listed on TripAdvisor as “closed till September 2023” but it’s open! We had dinner there is a very nice ambience, with very friendly service. Fish soup was great, and the sea bass and octopus salad are both recommended. Comfortable well-prepared dishes.

Long held family business, not long ago refurbished and fresh. Beautiful setting within Old Town. While the menu is extensive enough, the team are suggesting and happy to make adjustments or amendments to your order. Very reasonably priced. Staff were lovely.

Delicious food. Large menu, great service. You can’t book a table. We went for it opening. Queues build up as night progresses. One of the nicest meals we had on holiday. Wine was amazing. Prices were good. Very fresh tasting. There is a cute drinks...bar next door.More

Was here with 2 friends, had to wait a bit for the Table (had no reservation) but the waiter was super nice and referred us to a cocktail bar next door and got us from there when the table was ready. The food was perfect,...had the Steak with truffle and ordered it medium rare which they made it perfectly! We even got cigarettes when asked after the food and free grappa with the check. Can only recommend for everyone who wants good food, nice location and friendly service!More

The nicest food and the waiters are the most polite and sweet in whole Rovinj. The atmosphere is very romantic, authentic and beautiful. If you visit Rovinj you have to visit Mail Raj ❤️

We arrived in Rovinj during the salsa festival, every restaurant was packed full and no one was willing to take us. We came across Mali Raj and they graciously found a table for us. The food was delicious and well-presented, the service friendly and prompt....We felt lucky to have found this restaurant for sure!More

We don’t book but only had to wait 20 minutes or so having a drink in the adjacent courtyard bar. As we’re finding in Rovinj the people are delightfully friendly and really care about you enjoying the experience. We dined in the small terrace off...the cobbled street. Lovely evening, very nice food and great value.More

In the middle of oldtown of Rovinj and almost next to our appartement was this restaurant. We had no reservation but luckily we could get a table because we were quite early. Otherwise you had to wait quite some time. Service was okay, the food...was very good! They have a nice terrace. Tables were a little to close to each other.More

My family and I were unable to secure a reservation at a particular restaurant (we were seeking truffle pasta) so our concierge suggested this one since they do not accept reservations. We had to wait 25 minutes or so for a table. The restaurant is...mostly outdoor and has a lively and charming atmosphere. The host and the service staff were very warm and pleasant. We ordered Truffle Pasta, Mussels and Spaghetti Bolognese ….all were amazing. Now we have to make a tough decision since we only have one night left - do we keep our reservation at a different restaurant for tomorrow or cancel and return ….we may just be tempted to return.More
