Gostilna Sonja — Restaurant in Upravna enota Izola / Unità amministrativa Isola

Hello

My girlfriend and I are on vacation in Koper and stopped for dinner today at the Sonja Inn in Izola. We found a place at a table on the large terrace, which was covered with vines. We started by air-conditioning ourselves because it was incredibly hot.

We were given the menu and then ordered our drinks (500 ml of local wine and 1 liter of water). Less than 10 minutes later, the dishes we had ordered arrived at our table.

My girlfriend had “Homemade tagliatelle with prawns” and I had “Spaghetti with vongole mussels”.

Both dishes were very, very tasty. Both dishes had a rounded taste and were just as tasty. Simply melt in the mouth.

If you go to Izola, you should definitely go there. I would gladly give it more stars than 5, it was that good. The value for money would also be more than 5 stars.

We wish the Sonja team all the best and...

We ate here yesterday and had a great meal. The staff were very nice and accommodating during our entire visit.

We started with the fish soup. Even though it was very inexpensive, it was a nice sized appetizer for two people. Then we got a meal for two with a grilled fish and swiss chard on the side. For dessert, we had the chocolate cake to share. It was so good that we decided to get a second dessert, this time the apple streudel. They were both good, but to be honest, we much preferred the chocolate cake! 😄

Overall, enjoyed it and would recommend it if...

Nice exterior ambient, next to a road but it wasn't noisy (Saturday), the garden has a lovely shade. Nice menu design and cutlery matching the plates. Food was tasty. Prices reasonable.

Perhaps a tip for the chef - the dish (handmade pasta with octopus) might look better on a dark plate, or if it was served in dimmed light (to serve this dish only for dinner), or if the pasta was normal instead of added squid ink.

Visited as it was recommended by a local friend, and will be...
