JB Restaurant — Restaurant in Upravna Enota Ljubljana

First of all, we want to say thank you for the incredible culinary adventure that you have given us.

The first course (ceviche) was my wife's absolute highlight...she still dreams of it

My highlight was definitely the second course (red pepper - burrata) Already the first bite awakened a memory of emotions...I can't put it into words, but I almost cried...unbelievable

The third course (Langostine-salmon caviar) was as warm and soft as a loved one's embrace

Unfortunately, we didn't understand the fourth course (onion soup)...Even if the onion is supposed to be the star...a stronger, more refined, braver broth could have supported it and didn't necessarily have to outrank it... but what do we know... the boss definitely had an ingenious idea behind it, which we simply didn't grasp

The fifth course (signature dish ravioli) it's easy to see why it's been on the menu for over a decade...the pear jam alone...a delight. The dish is like an evening with a dear friend whom you have known forever, but still love to spend time with

The sixth course (deer - polenta) No question, the deer was without a doubt the star...but the "side dishes" were in no way inferior...it was so tasty and balanced that I forgot the deer for a moment...

Although we are not sweet mice... the dessert (elderberry panacotta-tonic foam) was the perfect finish...we wouldn't have needed the petit fours anymore

Apart from the outstanding food, the service was perfect. The two of them made it look so effortless, knew all the courses perfectly, talked shop with the guests, were extremely human, funny and willing to talk and very approachable beyond the food

The evening was a success across the...

What a wonderful experience! The service was great, we got perfect advice what to order, the waiter was both mannered and at the same time very kind with our 2 kids (which behaved accordingly 😉 - although this is not a kid's place, very calm atmosphere). The wine list is infinite, we just described by taste and got the best match to the food - which is more than perfect, crafted with extreme care. You can see, smell and taste years of experience and craftmanship of the Chef in High cuisine. JB deserves definitely (at least) 1 Michelin ⭐, it is way superior to some other places that have it, from our personal experience! Best slow food in Ljubljana, worth the money (not cheap,...

One of the most beautiful meals we have enjoyed in a very long time! Our waiter and his colleagues were expertly prepared to offer descriptions of both the tasting menu as well as their perfect wine pairings. You are so fortunate Ljubljana...to have this treasure among you! I had the tasting menu and my husband the fish menu with wine pairings. We enjoyed the education and the culinary experience. Bravo to the waitstaff and the kitchen (and to chef JB, of course who was kind enough to come by twice!) Those who complain will never be satisfied, the rest will have a good memory for the return visit! Make your reservation now...the definition of classic is here and forever! You...
