The story
Bokeria Kitchen & Wine brings contemporary Mediterranean cuisine to the centre of Split. A recent Gault&Millau rating underscores the kitchen’s steady execution in a competitive district. Large glass walls frame the pedestrian traffic while a stone hearth handles most baking tasks. Bright natural light fills the ground floor during daytime service. The rotating menu blends imported staples with regional produce to build flexible tasting menus that shift with supplier deliveries.
This Mediterranean kitchen structures its service around small plates designed for sharing. Soparnik arrives hot from the oven, layered with Swiss chard, garlic, and onion, while the Oink tacos rework boiled beef leg into a handheld dish wrapped in fresh tortillas. Heavier proteins include the Iberico skewer, slow braised lamb shank, and grilled suckling pig. Octopus and sea bass appear alongside black risotto when the catch changes.
Street level views shape the Mediterranean dining environment here. Floor to ceiling windows connect the main room to the historic fish market below, while an elevated terrace offers a quieter alternative during peak hours. Staff maintain a relaxed pace while sommeliers manage a cellar that highlights Croatian vintages. Dozens of bottles stay ready by the glass to simplify pairing. Chocolate preparations and the traditional paradižot float provide a clean ending to the meal.
