Conte Nero on Trg Municipija Arbe is a Mediterranean restaurant, bar and gelateria that offers catering at its own place, in a client's home or at another location. Agatini Vrtovi on Obala Petra Krešimira is a modern European restaurant that states it hosts weddings.

Matching the format to the room

A gala evening needs a clear sequence: reception, seated dinner, speeches and, where the programme calls for it, music and dancing. Ask what the room allows after the meal and how the tables can be laid out. Gonar Restaurant's hall for around 50 people and Restaurant Ana's 70 indoor seats with a terrace of 100 give a sense of scale before any conversation about the guest list.

Catering, accessibility and the details to settle

Catering is the point where offers differ most. Conte Nero adjusts its catering to the occasion, at its own place, in a client's home or at another location, while Vista Restaurant by Zlatni Zalaz arranges private events with dedicated service and chefs who cater Croatian, Mediterranean and international dishes. Accessibility deserves the same attention: Velum, Gonar, Ana and Conte Nero state that their entrance is accessible for wheelchair users. Restoran i konoba Gonar naveden je kao prikladan za gala večere i balove.
