Agli Amici Rovinj

"The restaurant is situated in a stunning seafront location along the elegant promenade of the modern Marina. A charming corner, enhanced by a spacious terrace – where dinner begins with refined finger food – and breathtaking views of the blue sea dotted with lush green islets. As evening falls, the illuminated silhouette of the Church of St. Euphemia adds a touch of magic to the atmosphere. The kitchen is helmed by Simone De Lucca, under the supervision of Emanuele Scarello, chef of the renowned two-Michelin-starred Agli Amici in Udine. The menu offers two tasting journeys: Rovinj and Istria, dedicated respectively to the sea and the land. From both, individual à la carte dishes can be selected, all sharing a commitment to the excellence of the raw materials and precise, thoughtful preparation. Among the most original proposals is a creative reinterpretation of scampo alla busara: served raw as a tartare and topped with fabulous grilled peas, while the cooked claws of the crustacean are hidden inside the pods. The sauce is presented in two versions – a traditional one and a creamy one, added tableside – for an impeccable result both aesthetically and in terms of flavor. For pairing, the recommendation is to trust the knowledgeable sommelier, who can guide you through a selection of Croatian and international labels or suggest a more creative pairing with a custom-designed cocktail." - Michelin Inspector

The MICHELIN Guide Croatia 2024 Is Unveiled!

"The restaurant «Agli Amici Rovinj» obtained two MICHELIN Stars. The Chef Emanuele Scarello and his young brigade crossed an historical stage in Rovinj by settling to the seacoast, on the modern and elegant Marina’s promenade. A charming corner, with a large terrace and a wonderful view on the blue expanse and its leafy islands; and at dusk the church of Sainte-Euphémie adds to the charm. The kitchen is ruled by the resident and very talented chef Simon De Lucca who proposes two flavorful menus; “Rovinj” and “Istria”, one maritime and the other land-based that are highlighting excellent local produce, and well-mastered technique." - The MICHELIN Guide
