The story
B-Restaurant takes its name from the Carniolan honey bee, a symbol of Slovenia’s natural heritage. That same sense of place runs through every dish. Located on the 20th floor of the InterContinental Ljubljana, the restaurant offers panoramic views of Ljubljana Castle and the Old Town, but the real draw is what arrives on the plate.
Chef Komnen brings a wealth of experience from Belgrade, London’s Ritz, and high-end restaurants in Montenegro. For three consecutive years, his work at B-Restaurant has earned a Michelin plate – a testament to his skill and vision. He describes his approach as breathing new life into classic Slovenian cuisine. Drawing from age-old recipes, he combines local ingredients with creative flair, resulting in dishes that feel both familiar and entirely reinvented.
The menu is interwoven with Mediterranean temperament, enhanced by the culture and offerings of the local environment. The philosophy is simplicity and top-quality, especially locally grown ingredients. This is modern cuisine that respects tradition while looking forward – a harmonious blend of Mediterranean artistry and Slovenian terroir. Every plate is built on vibrant colors, captivating aromas, and flavors that nod to sun-kissed terraces.
Beyond the main dining room, B-Restaurant offers a private dining option on the same 20th floor, ideal for celebrations, gala dinners, or press conferences for up to 150 guests. The connected B-Bar features a glass terrace with exceptional views, suitable for receptions and product launches for up to 50 people. Both spaces benefit from the same kitchen and the same commitment to quality.
For those seeking modern Slovenian cuisine in a setting that balances elegance with warmth, B-Restaurant delivers an experience grounded in its surroundings – and recognized by the world’s most exacting guide.
