Old Cellar Bled (Lake view)

Absolutely fantastic!! The lamb shank was delicious. This was probably one of the best meals we've had. I emailed for a reservation. I also wanted to be close to the water because it was my husband's birthday. The staff were incredibly accommodating. It was indeed a special evening. Lovely view!!

Excellent restaurant with unparalleled views and classic dishes. As someone that has dined in many Michelins, including the French Laundry, this is a restaurant that I would recommend to anyone visiting the area. There is plenty of outdoor seating. Tables by the waterfront view require reservations. Service was excellent, and our waitress, Inja, had fantastic taste and palate for pairing wines with entrees and for dessert wines. We started with tartare. This was truthfully decent compared to tartares that I have had, but it is tartare nonetheless (and certainly better than what you can find in the States). The beef cheeks were heavy but balanced with the carrots that were firm and sweet and cauliflower. It’s a really thoughtful dish. Unpictured, but my partner had the lamb shank. That was good, and much leaner than the lamb you find in the US, which is consistent with the lamb I have had in Europe generally. The wine pairings with this dish were superb. I also had a negroni to start, which was great and plenty strong.

While the view is amazing, the food is poor and price doesn’t fit to what you get. Seafood risotto was undercooked and under seasoned. The cream cake was good but nothing I would remember. You pay for the place and view. The waiter was very friendly and we got table very quickly.

We've got a table on a sunday evening without reservation. Very nice atmosphere, and design, although there was a bit noisy. Could hear a busy kitchen and behind the couter hustle. But the service and food can compensate for any slightest discomfort. The service was exellent, careful and professional. We orderd fish, seabass and river trout. The dishes were fine looking and combination of ingredients and garnish just prefect. The fish was fresh and soft, nicely fried, with much taste. The slovenian orange wine accompanied nicely with the dishes. They charge you for the service, 2,5 per person. But water, bread with olive and amuse-bouche comes at no extra charge. We were very satisfied with whole experience!

Special end to our holiday. We booked a week in advance to make sure we had a good table. If you’re a couple looking for a good view and romantic vibe, it’s definitely worth booking with them via email in advance. The food was special. The service was exemplary. The bled cake stole the show and was much nicer than the neighbouring restaurant that has the ‘original’ version.

Had a wonderful dinner here. There can be a line/wait to get into this restaurant for dinner, so I recommend getting a reservation ahead of time. You have a lovely view of the water and the castle/island from their patio. Our waiter was great, providing helpful recommendations, and our food was delicious. Would recommend coming here!

The restaurant accommodated a group of 58 people for dinner on the final night of our skate camp. Before we arrived we were provided with a 3 course set menu giving a choice of dishes including a vegetarian option, which was good value. We had some special requests, due to allergies, and the restaurant was very accommodating and they provided alternative options . The service was great, especially considering we were such a large group. Lovely view of Lake Bled from the restaurant, we hope to return next year.

A place with spectacular views over the lake. We got the best service we had I Slovenia. (Tip top service). They food was pretty good but not something to die for. They have a great wine selection. Overall a very good experience.
