Lamb is an institution. If you want to try lamb on the spit, under a bell, lamb chops, knuckles, rolls, lamb burgers, traditional vitalac these are some of the places where you can eat with your fingers.

 


NK Hrašće, Hraščanska ul. 84, Hrašće Turopoljsko
Not far from Zagreb, this restaurant is where you come for lamb, or young lamb from the island of Pag and from the Zadar hinterland. 

Trnjanka, Trnjanska cesta 31, Zagreb
Here you can find lamb from the surrounds of the Dalmatian hinterland and they offer it in several ways: on a skewer, on a spit, under a bell, and they also prepare it on the grill. 

Restoran Žganjer, Ozalj, Jaškovo 51
This distillery should be visited for several reasons. First their lamb, second the town of Ozalj is there, and besides the lamb there is the Katarina Zrinska cake and their famous strudels. But certainly lamb is number 1! 

Mali raj, Zdihovo 10, Severin na Kupi
This inn in Gorski Kotar is located along the main Zagreb-Rijeka road. Preparation of grilled lamb is a long tradition in Zdihovo.

Cres lamb is highly valued. The restaurant's speciality is breaded lamb in a bukalet (earthen jug), and additional delicacies on the menu are various offal, tripe and liver with cottage cheese with lots of sheep and goat cheeses.

Tamaris, Zagrebačka ulica 5, Zadar

Vinko, Uz cestu 57, Konjevrate

OPG Antunović, Kuna Pelješka, Pelješac
The Antunović family farm is located in the small town of Kuna Pelješka on the Pelješac peninsula. This is a great place to feel the true spirit of the peninsula and enjoy the exceptional lamb with the calm of the day.
