The Best Restaurants in Ulcinj

BY SARAH

The best restaurants in Ulcinj focus squarely on seafood and fish. Along the coast whole of Montenegro you'll find restaurants offering fresh-caught seafood. The difference with restaurants in Ulcinj is the prices are lower than in the more touristy Bay of Kotor and Budva Riviera and being a predominantly Muslim town, you won't find pork in most places.

While you're here, try burek. Burek is filo pastry stuffed with meat, potato, spinach or cheese and it's the traditional breakfast in the Balkans. You eat it with a glass of plain yogurt and it must be hot! Ethnic Albanians in Montenegro are known for making the best burek and traditional sweets, and being a predominantly ethnic Albanian town, Ulcinj is the perfect place to try some!

Misko

Well known among locals as the best restaurant, at Misko you'll get fresh seafood done in traditional Montenegrin style. Our tip: get a table overlooking the river so you can watch the ever-changing view.

Thoughtful touches like a toy box make Misko especially family friendly. But your kids will probably be entranced by the gulls and boats on the river and the tanks of lobsters and fish on display... just don't tell them they're on the menu!
