If you're in Ohrid and looking for a place that combines delicious food with breathtaking views, Utarna Terrace is a must-visit.
The Greek Salad is a refreshing start-crispy vegetables, olives, and perfectly seasoned feta that balance freshness with authentic Mediterranean flavor. For something heartier, the veal muscle is tender, slow-cooked to perfection, and melts in your mouth, while the pork ribs are smoky, juicy, and packed with flavor. The hard grilled cheese is a standout appetizer-crispy on the outside, soft and gooey inside, an ideal dish to share over glass of local wine.
The Utarna Burger is a pleasant surprise: rich, juicy, and layered with flavors that make it more than just a casual bite. Every dish feels carefully prepared and well-presented.
Beyond the food, the ambience is truly magical. The terrace offers a panoramic view over Ohrid, where the charm of the old town meets the shimmer of the lake. Whether it's during the day with the sun sparkling on the water or at night with the town lights glowing, the atmosphere adds so much to the dining experience.
Overall, Utarna Terrace perfectly captures the essence of Ohrid-authentic flavors, warm hospitality, and a stunning setting. A place you'll want to return to, both for the food...
Read moreAN ABSOLUTE MUST GO!!! Amazing restaurant with GREAT food, INCREDIBLE views and WONDERFUL people!!! The food is so tasty words fail to describe it :). The views are just one word: breathtaking. Looking over Lake Ohrid and city Ohrid while sipping on a glass of wine, what else can you wish for... And the owners of the restaurant are sooo friendly. The lady can speak amazing English and explained how they make ajvar (which was our favorite, you must order it!!!). The man can't speak English really, but is also so nice!! The homemade rose wine is sweet but flavorful!
AN IMPORTANT NOTE about the route: DON'T go up via guesthouse Villa Marta!! This is a small gravel path which will undoubtedly ruin your car :'). You should go up the road approximately at the height of Hotel Metropol. There will be signs saying "Terasa Utarna" and "Villa Minami" (= neighboring restaurant). Follow the signs, along a vertigo inducing road, for 3km. Once you're there, it's...
Read moreAwesome place! I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone staying in Ohrid. There are beautiful views of the lake and the city. Very friendly and welcoming hosts. It is very pleasant to see when people love and fully invest in their business and take care of it. There are even cookwares of their own production. Perhaps the excellent owners are the main advantage of this place. All food is homemade, delicious and satisfying. There are few guests, so the place is quiet and cosy. You can get out of the daily routines and enjoy the local beauty. The prices are quite low when compared to places in Ohrid. I recommend trying the local Rakija here! There is only one drawback. It is a bad road and a steep climb. However, the beautiful views and other advantages are worth it to overcome this difficult path. To sum up, if you are in Ohrid or passing by, don't miss the chance to visit this beautiful and...
