Restaurants in Sveti Vlas

Sveti Vlas, on Bulgaria's southern Black Sea coast, packs an unusually good restaurant scene into a small village. Most options sit around Marina Dinevi, a five-minute walk from the Panorama Dreams resort, with a few traditional mehanas hidden in the old village. This is the shortlist we send guests of apartment 1F8 most often.
