Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Had a lovely meal here. Ordered the fresh fish - the waiter was very helpful in telling us what is was (Rombo, ie turbot) and the weight (to calculate the price. Presented as a work of art and he filleted it and presented is to us - plenty of it and delicious. Good range of other things on the menu too. Not cheap but reasonable for what it was. Would recommend.

Very nice place with very nice decor. We had (local) wine by the glass, the best we had during our stay. We ate very well. My husband's seafood pasta was al dente and the seafood varied, plentiful and not frozen (maybe the shrimp). For my part, I had grilled squid. Top ! We will happily return.

Omg this place is a hidden gem!! We stayed at Hotel Galija, a quaint hotel steps from the city center and we saw the restaurant as we were checking in but they were closing. The next night, we decided to try it and we were sooo pleased with the service, the experience and the most of all the food!!! My husband wanted to try the mussels and we asked for the chefs preference. They were delicious!! Gabriel and Dejuan (spelling) were the absolute best. If you’re ever looking for a good meal and a great ambiance, come here!!

Service was very unprofessional. Waiters put no effort on each table. Food portions on apetisers are too small and look effortless,huge plates,super small amount of food without decoration. Unseasoned main course,lack of inspiraton. Waiters even don't propose any dessert after the meal, neither do ask to refill glasess of wine, or even ask if we need more. They forget parts of order. Food price is not at the same level as the taste and service. It is very pricey for the experience.

Went for dinner and we were not completely satisfied. Expected more based on reviews and based on the prices. We had appetizers (mix of tartar and carpaccio fish) which were very good. The main (salmon and lamb chops) was mediocre, not seasoned or salty enough. The service was rushed, we had to ask for bread basket and for a cooler for the bottle of wine (white wine). All in all, not good enough for a 130 eur dinner for two.

It wasn't very crowded and the service was excellent. My wife had the fish fillet with vegetables which was perfectly cooked. I don't eat fish or meat, so I was happy to eat vegetables with pasta. Their wine selection was excellent and the atmosphere was extremely pleasant, kudos to the staff

First of all: Tataki Atun, an 8 because it was overcooked, without going overboard. Seafood Delicacies: a plate of almost 10,! with octopus, caviar-like roe, smoked tuna, anchovies, anchovies and red onion. Seconds: Lamb ribs: 10, delicious, juicy with a truffle souffle, carrots and cooked potato (very good). Prawn risotto with truffle: 10, this couldn't be done better. Dessert: Coffee semifreddo: 8, very good. For 10, it needs a little cream to give it more sponginess. Service: incredible, unbeatable, always without disturbing, accompanying without overwhelming but helping with any explanation. Wine is a personal option so think about €40-50/person. Don't even doubt it. It's here.

Don't try sibass tartar with truffle (inspite waiter excleuded it from the bill aftertaste was very long and not good). Black rizotto was insipid as well. Only pasta marinera was acceptable. Think twice bwfore visit.

Nicely decorated and cozy place. Really generous and tasty portions. In two we had: a platter of Istrian cold cuts (all good but the sausage top), mixed salad, paccheri with seafood (large portion with lots of fish), risotto with cuttlefish ink. With a glass of Croatian wine and natural water we spent €75. There was nothing left! Great place to have dinner. Always book.

We ate excellent food. Whether starter, main course or dessert, everything was of special quality. Very fine, very fresh, very delicate. Haute cuisine and not off the shelf. Also the recommended Istrian white wine was excellent. The young woman who served us was very charming , uplifting, authentic and spoke excellent English. All around a very successful evening!!!!

We've had high expectations due to former reviews but were a bit disappointed. In general I thought it was all very oily and lacked finesse. We both had fish (tuna, salmon) which came with an average spinach-potatoe-mash but nothing else except some more oil. The male waiter was very professional, friendly and fast. His female collegue seemed all in all rather disinterested. We paid about 100€ for two starters, two main dishes and a bottle of water. Would probably not go there again.

Refined restaurant with soft lights, also suitable for a romantic dinner, located in the center of Pula. Good service and short waiting times. Excellent quality food with beautiful presentation. We found the starters a little expensive in proportion to the quantity but certainly with good raw materials. The first courses are very abundant and proportionate to the price. Overall excellent restaurant and food but a little expensive compared to average.

It’s rare that I am led astray by other reviews and so not sure if we got an off day or what but I cannot really recommend this place. Too bad because we had been wanting to try it for ages! The setting is quite lovely and upscale feeling but the service was slow and poor (had to ask for a wine list, had to ask for olive oil and salt, no one checked on us for ages, etc). At the price level this is at we also expected more of the food: the black risotto was the standout and was quite excellent (both flavour and tenderness of the monkfish) and truffle pasta was also nice. The gnocchi were nice but lacking flavour. However the starters we had were disappointing - poor cheese selection, stale bread, flavour less fish soup, over salted and over oiled salad. Overall we could see the potential but were quite unhappy with the whole experience at the price we paid and given we have had a place in pula for 10 years one can definitely do better in the area.

Dear guest, Thank you for visiting our restaurant and taking the time out of your day to write us a review. We try really hard to provide the best, quality-made food that is served by the best possible service so it makes us feel extremely sad to hear your dining experience was anything but perfect. We would love to make this right for you. Usually, we do that at the spot if you express your dissatisfaction to the waiter, but if you didn't feel comfortable speaking up then please contact us directly. We would love to hear your suggestions on how we could provide a better experience for you next time! - Epulon team

Let's start! We have just walked around the city center and paid attention to the fancy restaurant with great design. After our walk, we decided to go out and have dinner at this place. We have come at 8 p.m. and the waiter said: “ Most of the tables are reserved”. But soon the other red-headed waitress said come on and we went inside. The place looks really good and the atmosphere was pleasant. We started to choose dishes. We can’t decide between two starters and the red-headed waitress advise to us take an octopus terrine and seafood plate, and refine that will be nice for 4 persons. In the reality, octopus-like 50 gram and a LOT of rucola, seafood plate is 4 little price of canned fish. Also, there were problems with order! We choose just starters, but the waitress said, you should order now, because there are a lot of people and our kitchen goes crazy… Excuse me?!! There are not our problems… But, okay, we order all dishes. But were waiting SO LONG and like an hour In conclusion, I can say there was a DISGUSTING restaurant, which tries to pretend gourmett cute place. Never buy into beautiful tinsel…🤞

Dear Guest, We are very sorry you had this kind of experience in our restaurant and we would just like to clarify a few things. Our restaurant has gathered a good reputation this year and fortunately for us, it is fully booked every day of the week with prior announcements. We have a certain responsibility toward our guests who went out of their way to make a reservation and commit to a certain time which means we have very little space to accommodate guests who don't have a reservation. You arrived at the busiest time of the evening when two big groups consisting of 12 and 8 people just sat down. We went out of our way to accommodate you since you were eager to dine with us and explained that unfortunately, the waiting time will be longer since the two big groups who made a reservation have priority. You said that this was fine and we proceeded to sit you down. Even then, because we considered how long you would have to wait for your food which in conclusion would be close to two hours we advised our waitress to ask you kindly to order right away so your dishes would be prepared before we take an order for 20 people, just so you wouldn't have to wait so long. We are so sorry to hear the food didn't meet your expectations. Our Octopus terrine is a marvelous starter if you want to try some octopus and the ratio between the octopus and arugula, as it shows in the picture you provided is the same, as it should be considering it is a starter, not the main dish. Also, our Fish Delicacies starter is designed for you to try local fresh fish which will help you then to better choose your main dish considering the type of fish you liked best. It is also important to highlight that nothing that comes out of our kitchen is canned. We use local, fresh and seasonal ingredients which is what our food is known for. Again, we are very sorry you didn't have a nice experience while dining with us even after we went out of our way to try to make it a good one.

The food here is really exceptional. When we went, the waiter had 3 different tables, each speaking a different language, and he handled them all very well. Black risotto is one of the national dishes in Croatia (and one of my favorites) and theirs was the best I've ever had.
