One of Piran's oldest restaurants, which has been transformed into an elegant fine dining restaurant with a combination of glass, gold and black. Kristian Zule translates traditional dishes into modern times, and they are also beautiful to look at. The wine list has some treasures in store.
Boštjan Pavli is well-known among foodies. His cuisine is modern and has its own signature style, and even classics are given a contemporary twist. Ravioli filled with peach, cheese, mushrooms and goji berries are a real treat. Sounds exotic, but is harmonious. Top desserts!
Sitting down at a table at Marina is like arriving home. This is partly due to the friendly staff and partly due to Ivica Evačić-Ivek - a guarantor of upscale Mediterranean cuisine for over 20 years. Some courses are classically good, others more innovative. Good wine service.
Stylish, youthful, colourful: the AFTR radiates a lot of vibrancy. Just like Jorg Zupan's cuisine. You can expect a bistro style with a creative touch, surprising and with a lot of skill. Sommelier Matjaž Ivanc mainly recommends natural wines, around 30 of which are available by the glass.
You're a winner in any case. If a visit to the casino in the same building has disappointed you, the cuisine at Calypso will lift your spirits. Dalibor Janačković presents refined Mediterranean cuisine. Sommelier Dragan Samardžić put together 200 wines.
A small, cosy inn at the source of the Vipava River. Former professional footballer Denis Ibrišimović surprises guests with his refined regional cuisine. Trout comes in two versions: as a tartare with radicchio and as a fillet wrapped in seaweed and smoked hay.
Marko Pavčnik has already made a name for himself with his restaurant in Laško Castle, and with his second restaurant he has created a casual bistro version of his cuisine. Courses such as lemon ravioli with prawns and bottarga are fun. They go well with carefully selected natural wines.
The castle-like estate overlooks hills and vineyards. The cuisine reflects a mixture of Italian and Slovenian cuisine with slight Mediterranean influences. The wine cellar is a real gem - and well stocked with 700 high-quality labels.

In the "Golden Boat", which has been beautifully renovated, the day begins with an extensive breakfast. For chef Erik Florjanc, cooking is a vocation, and he spoils the palate with great respect for organic produce and plenty of imagination. Good selection of wine and beer.
A lovely atmosphere in a cobbled street, inside you sit under an exemplary renovated vault with designer light bulbs. The Mediterranean cuisine delights with traditional fish dishes from the Istrian coast, but black pudding and suckling pig are also delicious.
The high, light-flooded room with huge graphics on the walls has a pleasant and calming effect. The same effect is achieved in the kitchen: the dishes are prepared in a calm, classic style, but with a contemporary touch. Fish naturally plays the leading role by the sea. Nice service.
Traditional Mediterranean dishes with exclusively fresh ingredients are on the programme. The pasta is handmade, raw scampi tastes great as a starter, followed by a fine risotto. Meat dishes are also always worth ordering, especially the tender rib-eye steak.
An atmospheric seafood restaurant with white tablecloths in a maritime, light-coloured look. Head chef Vjekoslav Hederić has a no-frills style. At first glance, the plates look classic, but they are characterised by fine craftsmanship. Competent wine selection.
The location looks back on 400 years of history. The interior is very contemporary in terms of styling and cuisine. Beef tataki with olive oil and horseradish, lasagne with hare ragout, parmigiana or black risotto are served. The wines are off the beaten track.
You immediately feel at home as soon as you step onto the terrace or into the bright conservatory. You can taste the Mediterranean influences in the creamy courgette risotto with scampi. Tagliatelle, fuši or ravioli are delicious, and the signature dish is the steak from the hot lava stone.
The most beautiful terrace in Maribor, from the roof of the City Hotel you have a magnificent view of the Drava. However, chef Davorin Verlič does not focus on river fish, but on a mix of traditional and contemporary seafood cuisine. Lobster is the speciality.
Quiet atmosphere close to the old town. Seafood cuisine is the speciality. Tuna carpaccio, pasta with seafood, saffron risotto with shrimps and octopus are the favourite classics. Those who prefer meat will also find what they are looking for: Steaks or lamb are also prepared with love.
A restaurant with good fish cuisine in the capital? Yes, it is possible. In the small traditional house on the river Ljubljanica, the food is cooked in the classic way with very fresh produce. Scampi buzara, tender octopus or fish from the oven - everything tastes good. The strudels are a must.
