A Taste of
Istria
Family-run since 1988 in Bašanija, Umag — where hand-rolled pasta, freshly shaved truffles, and the finest Adriatic seafood come together.
Since 1988,
A Family Tradition
Konoba Pikado was born from a simple belief: that great food, honest ingredients, and warm hospitality are all you need to make people happy. Nestled in the village of Bašanija on the Istrian coast, we have been welcoming guests for over three decades.
Our kitchen celebrates the best of Istrian cuisine — hand-rolled pljukanci and tagliatelle, freshly shaved black and white truffles, the day's catch from the Adriatic, and wood-fired pizzas baked in our stone oven. Every dish is made with care, every guest treated like family.
Crafted with
Istrian Soul
Seasonal ingredients, traditional recipes, and a generous spirit define every plate we serve.
