About Us

Laganini pulsates in the very heart of Diocletian’s palace, as a reminder of the history that shaped us and the times gone by, whose customs enriched and enhanced the marvellous and miraculous Dalmatian cuisine that we present you in all its flavours, aromas and colours.

Sit and relax, we will pour you some wine and serve you something very, very fine. 

Welcome to Konoba Laganini.

Life is for enjoyment, not for annoyance.

What is the point of all that unnecessary stress, when Dalmatia always takes care of everything? Every day the sea gives you its fruits that you can prepare in as many different ways it takes, so that they never bore you. In the garden you have everything you need to season, flavour, balance your meal and raise it to a new level of deliciousness. Miraculous and divine nectars that taste like sun arrive on your table from the olive groves and the vineyards, and even when the southern wind is blowing and you really feel like doing nothing, in the tavern you always have some homemade prosciutto and cheese whose harmonious flavours tell you: hey, don’t stress out, life is beautiful, sit, relax, pour yourself some wine and eat something delicious!

Dalmatia is a giving mother, and the only thing one has to do is listen and learn from her millenary wisdom.

Prosciutto should be sliced thin enough to see the island of Brač through it on the horizon. Cows, sheep and goats should run freely in the pasture because freedom is the secret ingredient of the irresistibility of the aromatic cheeses from the Dalmatian hinterland. Fish and seafood must be perfectly fresh and prepared without any unnecessary complications, because the Adriatic Sea has already given them all the luxurious fullness of taste, and it would be a pity to ruin it. Organic fruits and vegetables are ecologically grown and put on the table when their season comes, when nature decides that the time is right to enjoy the explosion of their juiciness. Spices and herbs must be treated carefully and sparingly, not because of the stinginess since one does not save on food, but because they are there to flavour the dish, not to reign over the plate.

Wine…

Well, we have to stop here because the internet does not have enough space, and you do not have enough time for us to tell you all that wine has to be and what you need to know about it. But feel free to ask us, our friendly staff will be happy to tell you the life story of each of the 80 quality wines from our rich wine list, and explain the qualities that brought them on our wine list. Like with ingredients, when selecting producers and varieties, we focus on the best that Dalmatia can offer to perfectly match the nibble and the sip.

Join us at Konoba Laganini so we could teach you how to enjoy each grain of the Adriatic Sea salt and every sunray of the Dalmatian vineyards.

Our recipes are as old and ancient as life itself, yet imaginative in their continuous innovations and exciting in their original interpretations, just like times that are always changing and bringing their own customs and rightness. In line with times, and for your complete pleasure without the worry and stress, our menu is tailored to your needs and customs, with irresistible vegetarian options and divine specialties for those of you who avoid gluten, lactose or nuts.
