Mediterranean-inspired dishes that artfully blend classic continental flavors with local elements take center stage at LUČA RESTAURANT. The menu reflects the owner's deep passion for Montenegrin cuisine and tradition, which they now share with their guests through their stunning creations. Even the name LUČA embodies the Montenegrin identity, symbolizing light, shine, and warmth, representing the restaurant's aspiration to be a beacon of exceptional food and hospitality in Lustica Bay.

While LUČA excels in seafood dishes, thanks to its Mediterranean influences, it is their local specialties that truly steal the show. Luštica's air-dried prosciutto, reminiscent of Spanish and Italian prosciutto, and Montenegrin cheeses grace the menu, offering guests an opportunity to savor authentic local flavors meticulously prepared by expert chefs. The lamb shank, cooked according to a traditional recipe and roasted under flames, fills the restaurant with irresistible aromas. By the time it reaches the table, the meat is tender and succulent. Additionally, lamb chops are seasoned with carefully selected spices and herbs, elevating the already indulgent flavor of the meat to new heights.

At LUČA, the aim is to cater to everyone's preferences, and the menu includes a variety of delicious vegan and vegetarian options that showcase vegetables as the star. The chefs skillfully combine seasonal vegetables, plant-based proteins, and aromatic spices to craft a dining experience that is abundant in fresh, natural flavors. While enjoying your meal, consider complementing it with a glass of wine from the restaurant's extensive wine list. The selection features a diverse range of Montenegrin wines carefully chosen for their quality and expertly paired with the authentic local flavors of the menu.

To conclude an unforgettable gastronomic journey, indulge in one of LUČA's irresistibly decadent desserts.

When it comes to drinks, POPOV boasts one of the finest beer selections in town. Whether you prefer favorites like Paulaner, Erdinger, Stella Artois, Peroni Nastro Azzurro, or Guinness, you'll find your perfect brew. For a taste of authenticity, venture into local experiences with Nikšićko, or for the adventurous, indulge in the regional favorite, Rakija!

Staying true to its tavern roots, POPOV serves generous portions of excellent pub grub. Their menu is filled with classic pub and bistro dishes, featuring highlights such as "Pop's Signature Burger" or the enticing "Special for 2" – a shared dish brimming with crispy chicken, fried mozzarella, onion rings, local Montenegrin njeguška sausage, aromatic potatoes, arugula, and dried tomato.

If you're seeking a lively evening, POPOV regularly hosts live bands throughout the summer months. Take advantage of warm evenings, grab a cold drink, and relish in the buzzing atmosphere of Centrale's Piazza.
