We had a dinner couple of days ago, big table of 12 people. While the food was good (apart from some grilled ground meat I think is Lamb sucure something, that costs 16€ per piece and is awful), the service was absolute garbage. Total spending was 3.7k and they stopped servicing us well before closing time (at 11:00). Waiters laughed in the corner and talked and ignored us. Glasses were mostly empty. In the end we asked to have s bottle on the table so we can pour it ourself because they were so lousy. They were low on stock on drinks (almost every bottle was the last they had), and in the end we got 0 gratuity or discount for the bad service. We have told them multiple times that they were awful. I do not recommend until they go to service school and learn a thing or two about hospitality.

Fancy setting, fancy price, food doesn't match the fanciness neither by portion nor taste. Wine list is way too expensive. Service was quite good.

I got the worse experience ever, I travelled from other continent to celebrate with my boyfriend's family and they set the reservation in the wrong day, and no even a call to inform us anything, when the staff informed us that we didn't have any reservations they didn't give us any other options, we travelled from other city only for that restaurant, we ended asking all over for another space available in the hotel. Staff was nice in the Greece restaurant however it's not want we expected. We ended disappointed with the experience.

Bili smo grupa od osam ljudi,došlo je do greške u rezervaciji. Došli smo iz cresa, osoblje nije pokušalo naći rješenje za nastali problem Voditelj restorana se nije potrudio razgovarati s nama nego je prenosio poruke preko konobara na ulazu. Rečeno nam je da nema mjesta.Na kraju smo večerali u susjednom restoranu s kojim dijeli terasu i vidjeli smo da je bilo slobodnih stolova. Domaći smo ljudi i rado smo dolazili,ovo nam je bio 4.put i posljednji.

If I can make rate 0 this restaurant is full of discrimination specially when they see me I’m Philipina They let my boyfriend set outside without choices with poop of bird. That not nice for a five stars hotel or restaurant. For many of my experience to five stars hotel need to be friendly hospitality and make you’re guest feel at home

Honestly, for a Michelin-recommended restaurant, I expected more—something special—which, unfortunately, I did not experience. We only had one starter: a tartare with raw scampi, with some maracuia sauce and caviar. It also included pieces of young onion, which completely overpowered the flavor, so the taste of the scampi and maracuia was lost. For the main course, we ordered three nigiri and one futomaki. The nigiri were average—only the O'Toro, which was fattier, stood out as good. The other Nigiris, akami tuna and amberjack, were blank taste, empty. I am thinking that they were frozen, not fresh. Just average. The futomaki with spicy salmon was ok. We also ordered four portions of sushi rolls: three portions of 6 pieces and one of 8 pieces, but again—nothing special. One roll stood out as decent—the tempura shrimp roll with 8 pieces—and that was it. The presentation was beautiful, but the flavors didn’t come together and were really below average. Especially the sushi rolls with amberjack and sea bream, which were bland and truly disappointing. I've eaten sushi in many places around the world, but this one, considering the price-performance ratio, simply didn’t deliver—for us, it was far from it. Altogether was 180€. Oh, and we also had 2 bottles of water (1L each). For me it was dissapointing. Best regards,

As a former travel journalist and editor, I've long maintained a policy of restraint when it comes to restaurant reviews. My philosophy has been simple: minor issues don't warrant criticism unless persistent, and exceptional experiences usually find their champions among other diners. So, Matsunoki experience represents a rare exception to this rule. Having frequented this establishment with my family over several years, I find myself compelled to share my experience. So dear fellow gastornome, if you're looking for an honest review, here it is - let me know what you think! Hidden in the embrace of the magical Čikat Bay, Matsunoki represents the pinnacle of gastronomic excellence. Located in the elegant Bellevue Hotel on Mali Lošinj, this Michelin-starred restaurant represents a journey through textures, flavors, and art. Chef Orhan (great guy btw, very attentive and caring) masterfully orchestrates the fusion of two seemingly distant culinary traditions, creating dishes that tell a story of a place. So his interpretation of local ingredients through the prism of Japanese precision and technique results in interesting compositions that represent homage to tradition and innovation. Hand in hand with sommelier Filip! His understanding of wine transcends conventional framework. Namely he is an exceptional connoisseur and he'll demonstrate his knowledge during every second of conversation. His ability to find the perfect pairing between complex fusion dishes and a carefully curated wine cellar is an art form in itself. His expertise in both Croatian and international labels, and the way he passionately shares his knowledge, turns every pairing into a mini masterclass in enology. The restaurant's atmosphere elegantly balances sophistication and relaxation, The restaurant's windows are large, but the surrounding pine forest provides shelter and a pleasant sense of seclusion. Each plate that leaves the kitchen is visually striking, but never at the expense of taste – this is gastronomic theater where all elements are equally important. For those seeking a supreme culinary experience, Matsunoki stands as a testament to Croatia's rapidly rising culinary prestige in Europe.This is must visit!
