Our story
Finding ourselves in the middle of the wild island nature and using it as material to create something authentic is our specialty.
Our story started on the hills of the island of Korčula, over twenty years ago,
in a place where you could only find an old stone house and a donkey.
With the help of family and friends, we built a restaurant that blends family tradition
and cuisine and turned it into a hedonistic oasis.
Behind the doors of our kitchen, you’ll find us – a mother, a father, and two sons
who together create traditional dishes in a modern way, using local ingredients.
Our goal is to provide all our guests with a unique experience of Sunday family lunch seasoned with
gourmet cuisine.
While our story began in a small town on the Adriatic, today it is known worldwide.
The quality of our food and service has been recognized not only by our guests,
who return every year, but also by Netflix producers.
Therefore, we had the opportunity to participate in the wellknown series “Somebody Feed Phil” and present the best of Croatian cuisine.
Food and drinks
The love for cooking in our family started back in the day when grandma worked as a cook.
Since then it’s been passed down from generation to generation, along with learned skills and recipes.
That’s why today we cherish these old recipes, and everything we put on our table comes
from local farms and our garden.
All of our dishes are traditional, but “peka“ stands out as the specialty of Konoba Maha.
Peka is made by preparing food in a baking tray and covering it with
a heavy iron bell, which is then topped with hot coal.
The food is slowly cooked under the bell which makes it perfectly tender and uniquely flavored.
To bring this dish to perfection, we prepare it for hours,
so it needs to be ordered a day in advance.
The restaurant is surrounded by a green garden which not only creates a special atmosphere but is also the main source of various herbs.
We have planted over twenty species of herbs, which we harvest every day
and use in the preparation of cocktails and food.
When pairing aromatic cocktails and our specialties, we create a perfect Mediterranean fusion
worth tasting. And for those who prefer a glass of wine in their hand, we offer a wide range of
authentic local wines and some of the best Croatian wines.
