Gault&Millau's review 2026

When the summer heat sets in, guests find refuge on the terrace beneath dense tree canopies, while in the colder months the feast moves into the warm embrace of a traditional Karst house. Although surrounded by the region’s characteristic red soil, the plates at Grahor carry the unmistakable aroma of the sea. The kitchen’s philosophy is rooted in purity and simplicity: there is no room for compromise here, only carefully selected ingredients and clear, expressive flavours. Their tuna tartare with avocado is an elegant and precisely balanced dish in which colours, aromas, and flavours come together seamlessly. Fresh fish, chosen from the daily catch and gently grilled, appears on the plate in its most honest form. The skin is crisp and golden, while the flesh remains juicy and tender. This simple yet masterful preparation beautifully highlights the flavours of the sea, subtly enhanced by the light smokiness of the grill. Grahor is equally the right address for lovers of fine meat. The beef tartare is hand-cut, while the beef fillet in green pepper sauce is tender, perfectly aged, and pleasantly juicy at the center. It is a dish for those who appreciate excellent meat without unnecessary complication. Crispy roasted potatoes and colourful vegetables round out the flavours beautifully. After such a rich meal, a refreshing and aromatic sorbet provides the perfect conclusion, cleansing the palate and leaving behind a long, clean finish.
