About Restavracija Pri Levu

Pri Levu, “at the Lion”, was a much-loved gostilna before Hotel Lev was built on its site in 1964 and named after it; in 2009 the hotel opened this à la carte restaurant in its memory. The room has a tropical aquarium, and the menu mixes Mediterranean dishes with Ljubljana classics such as hopel popel, fried potatoes with meat, bacon and ham, “flying žganci”, fried chicken, and apple strudel. Our advice: handy before a walk in Tivoli.
