Restaurant Monte in Rovinj, first Michelin-star in Croatia

Monte stands as a culinary beacon in Rovinj, the first restaurant in Croatia bestowed with a coveted Michelin star.

Meanwhile, Cap Aureo at Grand Hotel Park emerges as a rising star, thanks to Chef Jeffry Vella's innovative veggie-centric tasting menus. Agli Amici, a sibling of the renowned Udine eatery, offers authentic Italian cuisine against a stunning seafront backdrop.

Tucked away in the stonewalled courtyard, Monte, nestled at the foot of the Church of St. Euphemia, evokes cherished memories and joyful moments. This family-owned culinary gem has flourished since 1985, earning accolades in the Gault & Millau guide and joining esteemed gastronomic associations like JRE - Jeunes Restaurateurs d’Europe.

Monte’s tricolore menu, a tribute to Rovinj, explores the full potential of seasonal ingredients sourced from local markets, fish markets, butcher shops, and small farms. Embracing an exploratory approach, Monte's gastronomic evolution revolves around its distinctive red, green, and blue menus. These color choices are no accident; they represent a culinary interpretation of the contemporary RGB model (Red, Green, and Blue). Indulge in the artistry and innovation that define Rovinj's diverse dining scene.
