The wine flight gave a nice look at what the region does best. Platter was solid, though we had to chase them for the coffee and water. Service lagged a bit, but the pours made up for it.

Stopped by for lunch in Podgorica and went with the blueberry salad plus those breaded feta triangles. Solid pick. The Krem Pita was a nice sweet way to wrap things up, though I wished I had a glass of crisp white to go with the feta. Place was busy but fine. Maybe not the cheapest, but decent for what you get.

Cheap breakfast spot, &euro;4 got me a solid plate. Sausage was a bit salty but fries and coffee did the job. Fine for a quick bite.

The setting here is really something &mdash; old stone walls, lots of character. I went for the grilled sea bass and it was fresh, flaky, not overdressed. Portion felt a bit small for the price, honestly. But if you care about simple, clean ingredients, this place does that well. I&rsquo;d come back for the atmosphere alone, maybe just for a starter and a glass of wine next time.

Jovan picked our Maki Maki catch and it was spot on. Even threw in some fish pate and rakija on the house. Fresh fish, simple prep. Nice way to end the trip.

Tuna steak was cooked right, not overcooked. Portion size fair for the price. Place was busy but service held up fine. Solid spot if you want fresh fish without the tourist markup.

Lovely spot by the cathedral, super relaxed. Tuna steak was cooked perfectly and the local wine hit the spot. Marko took good care of us.

The waiter really looked after us&mdash;brought a blanket without being asked, which I appreciated. Sat on the open deck by the water, nice breeze. Food was good, wine pairing worked well. Just a lovely, comfortable evening.

The Tramontana pancake was the highlight &mdash; everything else was just okay. Seafood pasta and octopus didn&rsquo;t wow me, but that pancake is worth going back for.

The staff helped us order delivery when we got in late &mdash; so appreciated. Food came hot and hit the spot. That one English-speaking employee made everything easy.

Been coming here for a while now. The garden terrace is still the main reason I keep showing up. Quiet, green, easy to just sit and eat without rushing. Had the fish again this time, still good. Service was fine too. Not the cheapest spot, but you pay for the setting.

The place was packed but the staff handled it well. Our food came out fast, which I appreciated. Just wish the seats were a bit more comfortable for lingering.

The seafood pasta was loaded with shellfish, that&rsquo;s the main thing I remember. Risotto with mushroom and chicken was solid too. Portions big enough to skip the next meal.

The waiter checked in just enough, not hovering. Pumpkin soup was a solid start, nice and smooth. Grilled chicken came out a bit dry, and the oil didn&#39;t help. Fries were the highlight though, crispy and well-salted. Decent spot for a casual lunch, nothing fancy. Probably fine if you stick to the simpler stuff.

Stopped by for lunch and grabbed a glass of their house red to go with the grilled fish. Honestly, the pour was solid and matched the meal better than I expected. Portions are big for the price, no complaints there. Waiter checked on us just enough, not pushy. Boat decor is a bit kitschy but kinda fits the place.

Rented a double kayak for a few hours &mdash; gear was solid, life vests included. Ivan made booking easy. Fair price for the time on the water.

The Moskva cake was light and really flavorful &mdash; perfect for my birthday. Place is cozy but got pretty busy.

Tried their steak for the first time last night &mdash; locally sourced and really tender. Wine list was decent too. Service kept it easy. Place was a bit quiet for a Friday, but honestly fine.

Came in hungry, left full. Got the grilled fish and it was cooked just right. Service was quick, no complaints. Place is nothing fancy but does the job. Solid spot if you&#39;re nearby and don&#39;t wanna overthink dinner.

Coffee was solid, prices fair. Nothing fancy, just a straightforward spot that does the basics well. Had a quick bite, food was decent for what it cost. Place is a bit plain inside, but that&rsquo;s fine when you&rsquo;re after a simple meal. Pretty good for a casual stop.

Came for a drink before the boat trip, stayed for dinner. Sea bream was really good. Lemon tart finished it off nicely. Service was friendly.

Right on the beach, cold lemonade and iced tea hit the spot. Prices are fair for what you get. Stopped by after a swim, didn&#39;t expect much but it was solid. Maybe not a destination place, but if you&#39;re already wet and sandy, it works.

The grilled fish was really fresh and the portion felt fair for the price. I liked that the seating was comfortable, not too cramped. Service was friendly without hovering, which I appreciate. Only small thing&mdash;it got a bit noisy later in the evening, but nothing that ruined the meal. Would come back if I&#39;m in the area again.

Stopped here on the way from Podgorica to Bar and actually came back a few days later. The feta-jam doughnuts were the highlight&mdash;sweet and salty in a way I didn&rsquo;t expect. Ham and cheese toastie was solid too. Nice little spot to grab something quick in the sun.
