Fantastic vegan macrobiotic food

One of the best vegan food restaurants I’ve tried in Zagreb. They serve a variety of fresh, organic dishes, and they all look too good, so it was a hard decision to make, but I went with the daily macro plate, and I couldn’t be happier. The place has a really nice atmosphere and a lovely terrace. Would definitely recommend it!

Pros: 100% plant based, Beautiful atmosphere , Great customer service

Zrno Bistro

Food was good, although lots of things were unavailable but that wasn't an issue for us. Large servings.

Fresh, beautiful food.

The concept of Zrno is great - everything is grown or made locally. You can really tell the ingredients are of a high quality. The staff were very friendly too and the ambiance of the restaurant was top notch.

I had the udon noodles which came with crispy tempura on top, this was all delicious and very filling. As a starter I had the yasai sticks which looked so cute I did not want to eat them - but when I did I loved how fresh they were and the dipping sauce was lovely.

Good for lunch, cake and dinner!

We went there two times because it was so good. We had the Gomoku, the Protein Power (it was actually only protein, not a lot of carbs), the udon soup, the greenpeace pasta and the crostata cake. I would recommend every dish!

Good options available

The price is fair and the portions are big. My only dislike were the sides: the "salad" was essentially lettuce and the sweet potatoes fries were overcooked. Otherwise very recommended.

Simply the best!

Possibly my favorite restaurant. I first came here because of a tip from a local Vegan. They serve good wholesome food which inspires me in my own cooking. I have been known to plan a layover in Zagreb just to eat at Zrno. Gomoku is my favorite, but I‘ve liked everything so far.

The desserts are not very sweet. Especially the cakes are different than you might expect, since the toppings are made with agar agar and have a distinct consistency which is not at all creamy. I prefer the pudding (Bio Kiss).

Excellent !!!

Bien que les commentaires étaient très élogieux, la vue des photos postées par les clients ne donnait pas envie… En fait, c’est simplement excellent (et beau ! désolé mais certains devraient arrêter la photo 😄).
Tout est fait maison à partir de produits bio provenant de leur ferme (même le seiten, le tofu et le tempeh). Ajoutez à cela, une carte variée, une cuisine excellente (plats copieux, élaborés et délicieux) et un choix de vins et bières étudié.
Quant au personnel, il est d’une gentillesse !
Enfin, les prix : certes un tout petit peu plus élevé qu’ailleurs mais quand on y réfléchit, le rapport qualité-prix est incomparable !
Pour le moment, seul vrai restaurant vegan testé à Zagreb, mais on va sûrement y retourner avant notre départ ! A tester absolument 🙂

Great food and atmosphere

We loved visiting Zrno Bio Bistro.
The food is awesome and the seating area is very comfy and stylish. The staff were lovely as well!
Contrary to one of the other posts, we loved the Cordon Bleau. It was not hard at all, but especially tender for Seitan!
All of the other food we had was also great and the cakes are delicious as well.
If we come back to Zagreb, we will definitely visit again!

Pros: Great food, Awesome atmosphere, Friendly staff

Nice organic restaurant, but didn't meet expectations

I enjoyed the atmosphere, plates look really tasty and healthy.
I was very excited to try seitan cordon bleu rolls but I was a little disappointed. It was hard to chew so I needed to cut very small pieces but it was hard to cut too. I don't know if it was overfried. I liked the combination of strong rolls flavour on one hand and on the other hand greens that are not seasoned.
Their bread is something that you simply have to try!
I tried three cakes - not worth it. Cakes are very poorly made, as you can see on the chocolate one that the batter is not mixed well, cake is dry and filling had odd taste (bitter, sour and had texture).

If I go next time I'll skip the desert and try more combinations with bread!

I saw quite a few reviews saying it's too expensive but it costs way more money for basic lunch in mediocre omnivore restaurant. This restaurant has a story, farm, food is local and organic. Maybe up to 10% more than other vegan restaurants.

Pros: Organic, local food, Atmosphere, colorful plates, Amazing bread

Cons: Hard seitan, Looks better than it tastes, Don't eat cake!

Must go!!

Everything about Zrno is great. Several option, everything produced locally and with fresh ingredients. The food was really good. I had a seitan cordon blue and my friend ate a tofu kayu sandwich which was also very tasty. For desert we shared (because the servings were also pretty good size!) a brownie that was superb and baked to perfection.
The staff is also very nice and friendly and to be the cherrie on top of the cake the space is also really awesome with an outside garden and inside space creating a super cozy and welcoming space. Would definitely go there again!

Pros: Several vegan option all organic, Super friend staff, Pet friendly

Cons: Nothing really

An absolutely mouth watering experience

I must agree with all other reviews. This place is simply the best vegan food I have found in all of Croatia, truly. I will disagree with anyone who says it's expensive. The quality and price of the of the food here versus Split or Dubrovnik is noticeably better and cheaper.

Cons: None

Zrno Bistro

What a treat! Had dinner here on my last night in Zagreb and could not have picked a better place. It was a warm evening so opted to sit under the veranda outside, a lovely space with a pleasant atmosphere. Plenty of seating inside too. I loved their ethos, farm to restaurant daily ensuring the freshest of organic ingredients, as well as supporting chosen local suppliers. I had the quinoa salad and it was bursting with flavour, all the ingredients complimented each other and it was a filling portion. Prices are a little higher than other venues in Zagreb but considering the quality of ingredients and principles of the business I think that’s to be anticipated.

Tasty but expensive

I like food in this place. They use organic ingredients from their own farm. Its all good but it is most expensive vegan place in Zagreb. Go there if you are rich or wanna treat yourself
