Why go
Kapric is a practical Zadar pick for a flexible, central meal rather than a heavily researched destination dinner. Book it when ease matters more than published chef, cuisine, awards, or pricing detail; cross-shop Maguro, Tinel, 4kantuna, Restaurant Labrax, and Bruschetta if the occasion needs a clearer dining identity.
About Kapric
Kapric is a Zadar venue with a straightforward profile: it is closed on Monday, open Tuesday through Sunday from 3 PM to 12 AM, and lists a casual dress code. Treat it as an option for a flexible Zadar evening rather than a fully pre-defined destination meal.
Book for an easy Zadar night, not a high-stakes tasting plan
The appeal here is practical. The hours support an evening plan, with service running from 3 PM to midnight Tuesday through Sunday. It is not the venue to choose when someone in the group needs details on cuisine style, budget, chef, awards, or menu format before committing.
That makes it more useful for diners who are comfortable with limited advance detail. If the goal is simply to keep the evening in Zadar and dress casually, Kapric can fit that kind of plan. If the meal needs a clearer identity before arrival, compare it with Maguro, Tinel, 4kantuna, Restaurant Labrax, and Bruschetta before choosing.
The right guest is flexible and already nearby
Kapric is best approached by guests who can work with the basics: Zadar, casual dress, closed Monday, and open Tuesday through Sunday from 3 PM to 12 AM. It is less suited to diners who need capacity, a named chef, awards pedigree, price range, or a published signature dish before deciding.
Counter or bar-focused diners should be cautious. Do not choose it specifically for a chef's counter or bar dining experience. If seating style is important, confirm directly with the venue before committing, or pick a venue where the format is already clear.

The take
The Take
The Vibe
Kapric sits snugly within Zadar's historic peninsula, and the restaurant's setting — stone-paved streets, the salt-tinged air and the ambient sound of the nearby sea channel — anchors its character. The kitchen mirrors that sense of place: ingredient provenance drives decisions, so menus feel purposeful rather than trendy. The result is a refined, classic coastal steakhouse that reads as both location-specific and quietly sophisticated, where the Dalmatian light and old-town textures shape the dining experience before a plate arrives.
Best For
Kapric is best visited for an evening meal when its steakhouse focus and coastal sourcing align: dinner is the standout service. It suits date nights and special evening outings where a mid-to-upper dining room complements thoughtful cooking. The menu also accommodates families and small groups — signature items like dry-aged rib eye and surf-and-turf are shareable and built around high-quality local ingredients. Expect a setting that rewards lingering over a well‑sourced plate in Zadar's historic old town.
Ordering Tips
Start with items that showcase the kitchen's sourcing and technique: the beef tartar highlights fresh, high-quality beef, while the dry-aged rib eye is the restaurant's signature for diners who favor texture and depth. Surf-and-turf is a useful choice for groups that want both Adriatic seafood and Dalmatian beef in one sitting. Ask servers about the day's catch from the local fish market and about the dry-aging period for steaks to tailor your order to what’s freshest and most distinctive that day.

Restaurant context
How Kapric compares in Zadar
Kapric is the lower-commitment choice in this Zadar set: useful when the group wants an easy central meal and does not need a fully defined cuisine or price signal before choosing. Maguro is the better cross-shop for diners looking for a more specific concept, while Tinel is the safer name to compare when the brief is a familiar Zadar restaurant rather than an exploratory pick.
For groups or occasion meals, 4kantuna, Restaurant Labrax, and Bruschetta are worth checking first because they give the decision more structure. Kapric makes more sense when booking difficulty and flexibility matter more than a pre-set idea of the meal.
