  • 1. 1906

    $$$

    Meticulously prepared meals, perfectly paired wine, and homemade ice cream are all offered at a premium price for these parts, although the setting and experience makes that great value for your money. The head chef specializes in reviving traditional dishes with modern flair but will adapt any dishes to any customer’s request. Elegant yet not intimidating, 1906 facilitates romantic moments as well as family outings. The hotel also offers wine tastings in their private cellar, organized cooking classes, and theme evenings. The impressive view, knowledgeable staff, and on-site sommelier make this dining experience special.

    Kolodvorska Cesta 33, Bled, N/A Slovenia, 4260, Slovenia

    • Impressive views
    • Organized events like cooking classes
  • 2. Druga Violina

    $

    The gorgeous Stari trg location and a hearty menu filled with Slovenian classics would be enough to justify a cheerful lunch at Druga Violina, but there is more to this spot than initially meets the eye. The restaurant doubles up as an initiative to help people with disabilities in the region, a talented group of people who help grow the ingredients on a nearby farm and work as the wait staff in the restaurant itself. The food is good enough to recommend alone, but the entire concept is to be celebrated.

    Stari trg 21, Ljubljana, N/A Slovenia, 1000, Slovenia
    82-052–506

    Known For

  • 5. Dežela Okusov

    $$

    All meat everything reigns supreme at this charming and cuts-fueled bistro on Eipprova. This is pub grub at an impeccably high standard: stacks of grilled and smoked meats mesh perfectly with any of Slovenia's impressive roster of craft beers. Throw in a homely interior and a sun-drenched terrace and Dežela Okusov is always a great option.

    Eipprova 11, Ljubljana, N/A Slovenia, 1000, Slovenia
    01-283–9288

    • Lovely terrace

  • 6. Gostilna Danica

    $$

    Don’t be deceived by this restaurant’s casual appearance at the Danica campsite: it tries much harder to add variety to the average Slovenian fare than most. Economically priced while still delivering a full plate, a good portion of the menu changes seasonally. In keeping with Slovenian tradition, soup is offered year-round, and the garlic soup is a standout. Be sure to sample the full regional wine menu as well.

    Triglavska cesta 60, Bohinjska Bistrica, N/A Slovenia, 4264, Slovenia
    04-575–1610

    Known For

    • Three-course meal for under €15
    • Distinctively better than most campsite restaurants
    • Full regional wine menu
  • 7. Gostilna Lectar

    $$$

    This warm country-style inn serves an impressive selection of traditional dishes. For a cross section of the local cuisine, try the pumpkin soup, the Peasant's Plate (buckwheat dumplings, mixed smoked meats, potatoes, and fresh steamed vegetables), and the apple strudel.

    $$

    A friendly, family-run tavern in the village of Lokev is about 4 km (2 miles) from the Lipica stud farm. This is a great place to try traditional dishes and wine from the Karst region; a good starter is jota (bean and sauerkraut soup) followed by slow-roasted pork and a green salad topped with a spoonful of beans.

  • 10. Gostilna pri Planincu

    $$

    With large portions at modest prices, this friendly spot is busy year-round. Rowdy farmers take advantage of the cheap beer at front bar and everyone loves the menu "for people who work all day": roast chicken and fries, steak and mushrooms, black pudding, and turnips. For dessert, walnut štrukli (dumplings) are served with cream.

    Grajska 8, Bled, N/A Slovenia, Slovenia

  • 11. Gostilna Prunk

    $$

    Cavernous dining rooms and excellently prepared beef dishes provide authentic ambience at Gostilna Prunk, a delightful surprise in the backwoods of Slovenia. The menu is simple and meat-centric (the family-owned butcher shop is attached) but enhanced by fresh ingredients and well-chosen spices. The homemade dessert plum cake pairs well with the homemade šlivovitz (a plum-based hard brandy). Service is friendly and prices are economical.

    Lokev 166 b, Lokev, N/A Slovenia, Slovenia
    05-767–1102

    Known For

    This family-run inn serves grill specialties and pasta entrées. There is attractive garden seating in the back and the lively bar is known for sing-alongs toward the end of the day. Of the old-fashioned gostilna options in Bovec, it may well be the best.

  • 13. Istrska Klet Slavček

    $$

    Creating a homey atmosphere in the center of town isn't the easiest task, but Istrska Klet Slavček more than pulls it off. All things Istrian are embraced on the menu, highlighted by a tremendous seafood selection straight from the port to your plate. This place fills up as the day goes by, so it's best to get there early.

    Župančičeva ulica 39, Koper, N/A Slovenia, 6000, Slovenia
    5-627–6229

  • 14. Manna

    $$

    Expect exceptional food and excellent service at this pleasant, well-known eatery just three minutes from the city center. Every dish on the menu is sure to please, and there's a nice wine list. Enjoy the array of outdoor seating: in the garden, along the lively promenade on Eipprova Street, or in the back of the house on the funky summer terrace.

    Eipprova ulica 1a, Ljubljana, N/A Slovenia, Slovenia
    031-529--974

    Known For

    • Lots of outdoor seating

    • Central location
  • 15. Neptun

    $$

    Highly regarded by the locals, this tiny, family-run place focuses on all manner of local fish, grilled or fried; don't miss the grilled shrimp or calamari. Less touristy and more affordable than the restaurants along the sea front, Neptun only serves local catches rather than the imported farmed fish from Italy and Greece, like so many of their neighboring establishments. Consistently well cooked, this place is worth a visit. In summer, you can dine at tables along the quiet street.

    Župančičeva 7, Piran, N/A Slovenia, Slovenia
    05-673–4111

    Known For

    • Tasty grilled shrimp and calamari
    • Authentic and low-key atmosphere
    • Outdoor dining in summer
  • 16. Penzion Lipa

    $$

    This pension is primarily a hotel but also has a decent restaurant. The pizza is undoubtedly worth the money, but if you're in the mood for some local food, opt for the ješprenj (pronounced "yesh-preny"), an old-school Slovenian farmers' dish centered around barley and smoked meat. It's located directly next to the bus station.

    Koroška str.14, Kranjska Gora, N/A Slovenia, 4280, Slovenia
    45-820–000

    $$

    Leave the throngs of central Piran behind and take a ride to this mom-and-pop restaurant. A 10-minute walk out of town leads you to this unique fusion of Italian and Slovenian cuisine. You will find top-quality fish offered at a fair price. Though the sea view is marred by other establishments, the atmosphere is cozy and the service friendly. Hours of operation can vary, so call ahead.

  • 18. Pristava Lepena

    $$

    Attention to healthy, local food and vegetarian cuisine will quickly win over any traveler who has had their fill of pizza or mediocre meat-and-potato dishes. The picnic area is a lovely place to enjoy the main specialty, local river fish, and the barbecue is set up for children to help prepare their own meals over a campfire.

    Lepena 2, Bovec, N/A Slovenia, 5232, Slovenia
    041-671–981

  • 20. Valvas'or

    $$

    An ode to modern design and inventive tastes, Valvas'or will first woo you with their stylish remodel of an old, arched tavern and then amaze you with little pleasures like sorbet between courses. Between ample and excellently prepared dishes, take note of the gold perforated metal wall that details the city plan.
