The story
Perched high above the city, City Terasa in Maribor is a destination that combines a café, a sky lounge, and a restaurant into one cohesive experience. The guiding philosophy is a celebration of Adriatic cuisine, where the menu draws inspiration from a blend of modern and traditional Mediterranean flavours. Chef Davorin Verlič leads the kitchen, focusing on the finest local ingredients—bio-reared meats and seafood delicacies from the Adriatic—to create dishes where each component has its own story, colour, and aroma.
The restaurant's setting is a key part of its appeal. With a spectacular view overlooking the Drava River and the Pohorje hills, guests can dine on the terrace under the sun or enjoy a romantic evening beneath the stars. The space is designed to be a meeting point for wine lovers, business lunches, after-work gatherings, and clubbing, all within a welcoming atmosphere.
City Terasa’s commitment to quality has been recognized with a Michelin recommendation, underscoring its status as a top choice for Mediterranean cuisine in Slovenia. The wine list is given special attention, with a strong emphasis on the surrounding Styrian wine region, known for its elegant white wines like Laski Riesling and Furmint. A four-course menu, often available during special events like Restaurant Week, showcases the kitchen's creativity with dishes such as Adriatic octopus with kohlrabi and lobster emulsion, or a creamy Adriatic lobster cappuccino soup, all paired with local wines from renowned producers.
