Restaurant Paklenica – Dinko

Restaurant Paklenica – Dinko is a family restaurant in Starigrad-Paklenica whose hospitality tradition began in 1965. Local squid and shrimp are central to its identity, and its position on the approach to Paklenica connects the dining room with the area's climbing community. Climbers and other visitors interested in the mountains have long formed part of its clientele. Dinko himself adds a personal connection to that setting, sharing stories about the place, its seafood and the national park. A climbing collection is another distinctive part of the restaurant's story. The surrounding town brings together two different landscapes: the Adriatic shoreline and the steep country of Velebit. Starigrad is a gathering place for walkers, climbers and visitors exploring the nearby canyons, so a meal here can fit naturally into a day spent between the coast and the mountains. The restaurant's own introduction keeps the emphasis on its family history and seafood rather than an elaborate account of individual dishes. Squid and shrimp are therefore the clearest starting points for guests interested in its established specialties. Larger groups need to reserve ahead, allowing the family to prepare for their arrival. Parking is available near the restaurant, and payment can be made in cash or by credit card. German, Italian and English are among the languages spoken. The family also provides accommodation in a separate building nearby, extending the hospitality business beyond the restaurant itself. Restaurant inquiries have their own telephone number and email contact, separate from inquiries about rooms.
