Family-owned restaurant Kaštil Slanica is located in the breath-taking Cetina River canyon, just 4 km from the place where this beautiful karst river flows into the Adriatic Sea.

As a part of the centuries-old history of the canyon, Kaštil Slanica Restaurant boasts exceptional ambience and mouth-watering cuisine which has been heavily influenced by the rich local history and the surrounding nature.

Where the Mediterranean meets the hinterland, and the river meets the sea, the restaurant, with its spectacular riverfront setting, offers a tranquil and relaxing dining experience. An ode to the culinary heritage of the region, our dishes are made from locally sourced and seasonally available ingredients and are paired with wines made only from autochthonous Dalmatian grape varieties.

With a variety of dishes to choose from, our menu caters to everyone. You wouldn’t want to miss out on our homemade peka bread baked on open fire as per a traditional Dalmatian recipe, frogs, eels, traditional beef stew pašticada prepared as per Grandma Višnja’s recipe, traditional Dalmatian dessert rožata, famous Dalmatian fritters fritule, peka and grill dishes or a Swiss chard pie soparnik, to name a few.

The fairy-tale setting of Kaštil Slanica Restaurant has allowed us to become a wellknown destination for romantic weddings, family gatherings, corporate events, and other functions for up to 180 people.

Free parking and a children’s playground are available at the location.

The restaurant is accessible by car, kayak or boat (departing from the Omiš bridge) or on foot.

With Ottoman Turks gaining wealth and power in Omiš and the Poljica Principality in the 14th century, a trading post was established, used primarily for salt trade between the people of Omiš and the Turks. The Croatian word for salt is sol; hence the name Slanica.

Today's restaurant was built on the medieval ruins of the trading post and the 16th- century Slanica fort was declared a cultural monument.

Kaštil Slanica Restaurant won the silver charter of the Sunflower of Rural Tourism award in the category “traditional rural gastronomy” in 2015 and Simply the Best award in the category “catering facilities offering traditional food and drinks in rural areas” in 2016.
