Gault&Millau's review 2026
15,5/20
Remarkable Restaurant
A warm welcome and freshly baked house bread immediately reveal that nothing here is left to chance. Even the opening amuse-bouches set the tone for the evening: thoughtful flavours, precise execution, and just enough playfulness to keep the experience engaging and unexpected. The kitchen begins with cheese lollipops and profiteroles presented in two variations - one filled with truffle cream and cashews, the other with rich goose pâté. Tuna sashimi with citrus emulsion and ponzu sauce provides an internationally inspired opening course, perfect for diners who appreciate purity of flavour, freshness, and a dish with a clear identity. The pace then shifts to something more restrained yet equally convincing: thin slices of beef carpaccio paired with potato cream, mushroom cream, radish, and seasonal radicchio. Among the more memorable creations are pear ravioli. Served in a seafood bisque with shrimp and freshly grated truffles, the combination feels bold but remains beautifully balanced. Another standout is the Krškopolje pork chop accompanied by cauliflower flan, ajvar cream, and kajmak. It is a dish that places a traditional Slovenian ingredient into a contemporary, self-assured setting without losing sight of its roots. For dessert, tiramisu and crème brûlée provide a fittingly elegant finale. A refined wine pairing complements the menu throughout the evening, while the service team leaves its own lasting impression - warm, professional, and relaxed enough to make every guest feel genuinely special.
