About Kapetanova Kuća

Kapetanova Kuća is the best-known seafood restaurant in Mali Ston, set right on the shore of the little harbour and something of a local symbol. Chef Lidija Kralj cooks traditional recipes with modern technique, and the dishes people come back for are the house seafood risotto and Stonska torta, the town’s unusual pasta-filled cake. The family grows its own fruit and vegetables, so the plates taste of the season. Start with the bay’s famous oysters, sit by the water, and book a table ahead in summer.
