Dubrovnik Gardens

For some reason my parents like to eat there and my mother dragged me along once again. When we got there there was only one other table of customers yet it took them ten minutes to bring us water.
I ordered the soup and it was bland and tasteless and the bread they brought was cold and dry. I had the pork schnitzel which was very greasy.
The whole experience there was terrible as usual. I told my family i never want to go back there again. The food was lousy but the service was even worse.
I have to say however they do a much better job when they have banquets there. I was told there were different cooks for the Croatian lodge part of the operation.
I would recommend staying away from the restaurant altogether but if it’s a wedding there it’s safer.

Food was excellent. Prices very reasonable. Waitress was very fun.
I had the Wiener Schnitzel and it was very good. My wife had the lemon chicken (it was the recommendation of the server) and she said it was the best chicken she ever had.
We had a group of 10 people. They take reservations, our table was ready, and the entire group loved the experience. We will be back.

Love it. Comfort food at it’s best. Very reasonable.

Very good homemade cabbage rolls, and chicken cordon bleu. Excellent potatoes. Very kind, friendly and helpful staff. Apple strudel was awesome.

Great homemade food! Always love eating here! You get a lot of food for your money too!

I’m drawn to Cevapi like moth to flame. These were good. I’m the grandson of Eliis Island era Croatians and this food tastes like food the old timers would approve of. The look and feel of the restaurant is classic middle European… think Swiss chalet fondue places. I came in 30 minutes before closing and no problem. I will return when in the area.

Great seafood platter grilled shrimp, white fish and scampi. Very good. Dubrovnik Gardens specialty is Croatian «comfort food», Sarma (aka Cabbage rolls), Cevapi (little grilled meat sausages), raznici (Croatian kabobs) and my wifes favorite Friday special is the the soup made with farina dumplings (much lighter than the more common potato or flour dumplings found in some Czech dishes). One can also have a shot of the Croatian Plum Brandy, Slivovits or a Croatian Beer Karlovacko. Not much can be said for the veggies, which is the only reason for my 3 star rating, otherwise I would have given them 4 stars For dessert try the palacinka (aka crepes) with the château wine sauce (chocolate and nuts)… and top it off with Trkska Kava (aka Turkish coffee)

Best crepes this side of town. Good meat sampler plates. Loved and enjoyed by other Eastern Europeans.

it is what it is.
ethnic croation, cheap, mostly fresh, relatively fast, friendly, good for groups of old people and big loud families after funerals and such (like us) and little kids.
nothing bad, except the frozen veggies on the side are kinda just there for filler it seems. but the main dish parts were basically good, healthy, tasty.
my mediterranean red snapper with olives didn’t actually have olives.
my cousin’s shrimp and scallop fettucini didn’t actually have scallops.
but it was all good (except those frozen veggies as mentioned).
plus = full bar with decent slivovitz.
plus = yummy turkish coffee.
my uncle loves the crêpe deserts, i think they are ok.
Plus Plus = they also host proms here and we got to see a bunch of prom kids and some cute dresses and best of all i now know the latest official 4 prom poses («flirty» with the girl kicking her leg up, «traditional» with guy behind the girl like spooning style, «facing» each other kind of holding hands, and «romantic» which is the same as facing each other but with the girl’s hand pressed on the guy’s chest.) Talk about useful. I wish i had pictures, but i’m not one for camera toting at funerals.
