Peka and open-fire grilling, opened on Plinarska in early 2026.

Konoba Bovan opened on Plinarska in Varoš in early 2026, built around the kind of Dalmatian cooking that takes time: meat off the grill, peka dishes that need advance notice, home-style plates cooked over an open fire rather than a stovetop.

It reads as a deliberate throwback in a city whose newer openings mostly chase brunch and cocktails, betting instead on the older format of a konoba doing one thing well. The Varoš setting, a few streets back from the water, suits that pitch.

Wow, I don't know if I have enough words to describe how good this place is. The food was spectacular, extraordinary, sensational, amazing, marvellous, incredible, delicious. Hopefully you get the picture. Easily the best meal we had all holiday. We both had the veal Peka mmmmm so good, wish I could eat it now. I wanted to and intended to go back the following day, but sadly due to a trip to the Krka national park we was just too hungry to wait until we got back to Split. Absolutely Gutted. We spent nearly as much on fair inferior food, and it was our last night so I didn't have another opportunity. 100% recommend. The staff are also very good at what they do, they were rushed off their feet but very efficient, great at their jobs. Compliments to the whole team, and it's also a lovely establishment. I recommend you go if you can. Might be better to book, we were very lucky to get a table but they kindly accommodated us despite being super busy. Hvala 🙏🏼

We went for lunch and got the octopus salad, grilled squid and pork neck. Everything was excellent, our server was lovely. Sad it was our last day as we didn’t get a chance to try the peka. Next time we are in split this will be our first stop!

We visited twice on our trip to split and can’t recommend this restaurant enough. We loved the food the atmosphere and the staff were friendly. We hope to return to Split and will visit again.
