Restaurant Lanii Menu

Tucked away in the heart of Dubrovnik, **Restaurant Lanii offers a menu that truly balances elegance with comfort. Starting with cold appetizers, the swordfish and octopus carpaccio, both paired with peppery arugula, set a fresh tone, while the oysters on the half shell bring a zesty brightness that pairs beautifully with a crisp white wine. Beef carpaccio, enhanced with Parmesan and black truffle, is perfect for sharing, hinting at the kitchen’s flair for combining classic flavors with sophisticated twists. Soups like the hearty fish soup and carrot soup with ginger provide warming contrasts, effortlessly bridging the seafood-forward starters to the heartier warm appetizers.

The warm appetizer section is a delightful mix of textures and tastes. Deep-fried tempura prawns with soy sauce offer a satisfying crunch, while sea scallops on cheesy bruschetta and foie gras with orange and beetroot sauce elevate the experience with a refined edge. Light bites like spring rolls and tempura vegetables balance the heavier flavors, showing a thoughtful diversity in the menu. Moving on, the pasta and risotto options-from fettuccine with fresh salmon to Lanii-style black cuttlefish risotto-are vibrant and rich, while truffle cream pasta adds an indulgent note.

For mains, the menu shines equally with fish and meat options. Lobster in garlic-parsley butter, sesame-crusted tuna steak, and a seafood platter with vegetables capture the essence of the Adriatic. Meat lovers will appreciate truffle rib eye steak with garlic mashed potatoes and spicy beef meatballs with curry mashed potatoes. Salads and desserts, like the lanai almond cream cake or semifreddo, round out the experience perfectly, making the menu feel comprehensive, thoughtful, and unforgettably satisfying.
