Gault&Millau's review 2026

Hiša Ančka is a culinary house with soul, where elegance never overshadows a sense of warmth and homeliness. Here, the character of Carinthia is not preserved under a glass dome - it lives on the plates: comforting, contemporary, and deeply devoted to flavour. Freshly grated steak tartare made from premium beef is an excellent beginning. It is accompanied by homemade butter with black kale and fleur de sel. Spread onto freshly baked sourdough bread, the combination needs no explanation; only the first bite. The crisp bread crust also pairs beautifully with delicately marinated veal tongue served with homemade pumpkin mayonnaise. Homemade pljukanci pasta is coated in a luxurious porcini mushroom sauce finished with aromatic shavings of black truffle. Fluffy homemade gnocchi combine wonderfully with pieces of roasted chicken and fresh basil pesto. Tender milk-fed veal rests on a rich demi-glace sauce, accompanied by silky pea purée and sautéed seasonal vegetables. Chanterelle mushrooms complete the dish with their unmistakable forest flavour. A meal here ends beautifully with one of the house desserts. And when all of this is joined by carefully selected premium wines, thoughtfully matched to the flavours on the plate, it becomes clear that Hiša Ančka is devoted to the complete experience. One more reason to head to Carinthia, explore it, and surrender to it at the table as well.
