    The waiter was really friendly and used well placed neutral jokes. He explained menu and their vision. They are so proud of their local meat, that I've ate mid-rare pork first time in my life. The wine went well with tasty food. Overall I love that they are small and take great care and pride in their few dishes. Worth of visiting.

    We died and went to charcuterie heaven. Seriously though, they have their own Slovenia Prosciutto that they slice at the front of the restaurant which was delicious, but even better was the mixed plate. It was one of the most decadent things I've ever eaten. Check out the pic with the fattiest bacon I've ever seen in my life. Wine was spectacular too. Go here.

    A must try. Amazing food prepared with ingredients from their wild pigs. The lardo was exceptional, never tasted any like it. Great dishes and lovely service.

    Great dinner (food, place AND staff!). The opportunity to taste Slovenians dishes in a cosy atmosphere. Food was great, so were the recommendations and the service overall. It's a few minutes off the beaten paths but a worthy choice. Thank you

    Excellent local dishes prepared with care. View of the castle from outdoor seating. Nice wine list, try the local Orange wine. The pasta with truffle and the Krškopolje pig carpaccio were exceptional. Friendly wait staff.

    Great food and dessert.

    On the expensive side, but the wine and the food is very good. Filet minon was almost blue rare, rather than medium rare, but it was quite tasty.

  • 5/5 Andrei G. 1 year ago on Google
    Excelent Food and local wine. Loved it! The pork is terrific, pasta with truffles paired perfectly with their local red wine. Staff was super welcoming and offered great recommendations.

    I ll admit we only had soup but this was because there wasn't what we wanted and the soup was extremely average to tastless... It is also veeery expensive too but the waiter was very very nice and helpful

  • 5/5 SD C. 4 years ago on Google
    Great service and experience with Italian cured meats. Loved the lard, aged in brine for years. Exceptional orange wines.

  • 5/5 Jochen B. 1 year ago on Google
    A friendly waiter, who doesn‘t leave any question open. Pork on benchmark level with Iberico. What else do you want? It was worth every single c ent we paid. Thank you very much Jacob Franc Team. 😀👍

  • 4/5 Marco S. 1 year ago on Google
    I would love to give five stars, but I cannot, unfortunately. Please let me explain: the main dishes we wanted were not available. The mains we got were just perfect, very delicious and tasted like home-made. The wine we wanted to order, was not available, the wine we got was very nice. The dessert we wanted to order was not available, the dessert we got was okay. All in all, I guess we just happened to visit on the wrong day. Please do visit this establishment, it is worth the short walk from the city center.

👍👍 Very good burgers, one of the best in Slovenia. Also chicken wings were great. House beer was OK. Prices are very expensive, burger was 12,9€ and beer 4,9€. These are 30% higher rates then usual Slovenian burger places, but I suppose they can keep it due to location in city center. Stuff is very fri...
