Matsunoki, a Michelin-recommended restaurant with 16 points in the Gault&Millau guide, presents the highest quality traditional Japanese cuisine by chef Orhan Chakiroglu.

At our restaurant, authentic Japanese flavors perfectly blend with Mediterranean ingredients from local organic farming. Our carefully designed menu features sushi, sashimi, rare Japanese Wagyu A5 beef, and a range of fine delicacies that promise an extraordinary dining experience in Čikat Bay. This is further enhanced by an exquisite selection of whiskey from renowned Japanese distilleries including Nikka Taketsuru, Yamazaki, Hakushu and Hibiki, and an exclusive collection of traditional Japanese sake.

Thanks to the thoughtfully curated wine list by Wine Director Filip Veselovac, Matsunoki was awarded the "Best of Award of Excellence" in the 2024 Wine Spectator Restaurant Awards, marked with two wine glasses.

    If you want to eat the worst Japanese food imaginable, then you are going to the right place. It’s hard to describe the lack of culinary skills displayed by this kitchen. From the frozen edamame beans to the deep fried softshell crab that looked and tasted like the left over fried batter of a fish and chip shop. I almost never write restaurant reviews, but sometimes you need to stop people from committing culinary suicide!

    Congrats! Everything was 🔝! Ouside need a little more details for comfortable! The first area is top with lounge chairs next to the sushi area. Next to the grill need some extra areas for privacy … All together, we come again And the chef is very forward looking… 👏👏👏

    My and my parents went to the restaurant to celebrate my mother's birthday. We had a warm welcome at restaurant. The waiter was very young, but had a very good knowledge about the food and knew what to recommend. As appetizers, we ate tuna tartar and salmon tartar. Tuna tartar was a little bit spicy, but the taste was overall good. I also tried gyoza with chicken and shitake mushroom, it was very good. Then, all of us tried the miso soup, since is traditiona, japanese soup. At the beginning, the taste was weird because we are not used to this kind of taste, but as we ate, at the end was delicious. Then, we ordered sushi rolls ( which names i don't remember any more :D ). They were overall very tasty, but the most delicious were the truffle prawn rolls that i tried. For the desserts, we tried mushi with coconut cream, asian cream dessert and they also offered us the japanese fours dessert. The staff suprised us as they prepared a small chocolate cake for my mom's birthday which was so nice. We were very happy. The prices i would say are high, ut it is worth it because you can really feel the quality of food and ingredients. I would definitely recommend this restaurant if you want to try something different. Kudos to the chef, the cooks, waiter, all the staff and the manager!
