Taste of the Karst

At Bistro Grad Štanjel, they treat you with a modern take on Karst food for an authentic experience of the best the Karst has to offer.

The charming village of Štanjel is a terraced village on the hilly Karst Edge and reason enough for you to visit these places. Even more so if you want to taste the Karst cuisine. Genuine Karst tastes that are sure to please are attributed to the bora that blows in the Karst, stone and red soil.

And Bistro Grad Štanjel, located not far from Štanjel, is sure to delight too. Both the food and the ambience come together to create a joy for the senses. A bright dining room with plenty of stone and exquisite service continues to a glass terrace with a view of the maturing room and the prosciutto shop. It exudes elegance and intimacy at the same time, which makes gourmet indulgence relaxed and pleasant.

The Komel spouses are in charge of Bistro Grad Štanjel. Farzila is responsible for the service, while Simo Komel, a creative chef, takes care of the kitchen. With their kindness and cheerfulness, they make sure their guests feel great. You should announce you visit beforehand so that all the staff can welcome you.

The restaurant’s special feature is its boutique prosciutto-producing facility where Karst-region prosciutto is matured. If time allows you, take a look at it. They will open its door for you with pride and joy.

From the soil to the plate

The 0 km philosophy at Bistro Grad Štanjel means that ingredients are fresh and local. Food goes from the nearby soil, water, drying room or the barn to the plate. Of course, Chef Simo steps in with his modern cooking approaches.

The range of dishes constantly changes, as they follow the seasons and seasonal ingredients.

Indulge in a four-, five-, six-, seven- or eight-course menu and simply enjoy. For a perfect harmony of tastes, you can choose from almost 200 wine labels which are watched over by Tine Žbogar, a young sommelier.
