Kevin Spacey is back in Dubrovnik, a city that has remained part of his travel memories for nearly two decades.
The internationally acclaimed actor and two-time Academy Award winner returned to Dubrovnik 17 years after celebrating his 50th birthday here in 2009. This time, he marked his 67th birthday in the company of close friends, with a celebratory dinner at Proto Fish Restaurant.
A Return to a City He Remembers
Spacey’s connection with Dubrovnik began before his 2009 birthday celebration. An earlier visit left a lasting impression on the actor and inspired him to return with friends.
His latest visit continues that relationship with the city, bringing him back to its historic streets, distinctive atmosphere and celebrated gastronomic scene.
During his stay on the Croatian coast, Spacey has been accompanied by friends, including Croatian film director Jakov Sedlar, his long-time friend and collaborator.
A Birthday Dinner at Proto
For his birthday evening, Spacey and his guests chose Proto Fish Restaurant, one of Dubrovnik’s most established and recognisable gastronomic addresses.
The celebration took place in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere, with a menu centred on fresh seafood, Mediterranean flavours and traditional Dubrovnik specialities.
Spacey and his guests enjoyed the seafood dishes for which Proto is widely known, along with the warm hospitality and attentive service that have shaped the restaurant’s identity for generations.
Dubrovnik’s Culinary Tradition
Proto’s cuisine is rooted in the maritime heritage of Dubrovnik. Its dishes combine carefully selected local ingredients, traditional recipes and a refined approach to seafood.
The restaurant has long been a destination for guests wishing to experience the authentic flavours of the region in an elegant but relaxed setting.
For Spacey, the birthday dinner offered an opportunity to celebrate with friends while once again experiencing the atmosphere and culinary traditions of Dubrovnik.
A Special Evening for Proto
Welcoming Kevin Spacey on such a personal occasion was both a pleasure and an honour for the Proto team.
His return to Dubrovnik, nearly two decades after his first visits, is another reflection of the lasting impression the city leaves on its guests.
Proto Fish Restaurant extends its warmest birthday wishes to Mr. Spacey and thanks Mr. Jakov Sedlar and their friends for choosing to celebrate this special evening at the restaurant.
Happy Birthday, Mr. Spacey, and welcome back to Dubrovnik.
