Monte Restaurant
Restoran Monte
Croatia’s first Michelin one-star restaurant, earning the star in 2017; located beside St. Euphemia’s Church in Rovinj’s old town.
Run by chef Danijel Đekić in the old family house where he was born, it sits next to St. Euphemia’s Church at the highest point of Rovinj’s old town. It began in 1985 as a family trattoria and won Croatia’s first Michelin star in 2017, which it has kept since. The 2026 Michelin Guide describes two tasting menus, Flora (fully plant-based) and Fauna (based on Adriatic fish and selected meats), and diners can also combine three to four short courses. The wine list is entirely Croatian. Tasting menus start at about €130–190 per person, not including wine. Reservations are required, and it is open for dinner only.
