Reviews Summary
Restavracija Central Bled is praised for its generous portions of authentic Slovenian cuisine and friendly service, making it a great value in a central location. While some find the service efficient, it can feel transactional. The food is generally well-received, with standout dishes including traditional dumplings and the famous Bled cream cake, though presentation can sometimes be lacking.
"Nice Bled Restaurant. Food was very good, and portions were perfect. Service was good and although the restaurant was full, the food came out fairly quick. Grilled Chicken and Roasted potatoes was very good. Also comes with a dill sauce on the side. Chicken was moist and had a nice taste. Apple Strudel paired with Vanilla ice cream and one shot of espresso was the perfect end to the meal. Moderately Priced.. Will definitely go back.."

"Great local place in Bled for simple and tasty food - we tried pork baby ribs, grilled meat plate and kids menu. Draught local beer, really big portions, affordable prices, and all of that is in center of the town. No reservation was needed in the afternoon, we took a table immediately. Worth mentioning - this is pets friendly place"

"Easygoing restaurant- had a relaxed lunch here. The food and service were great. The mushroom soup (photo taken after starting to eat…) was flavourful, my salad was hearty and tasty, and the burger/fries were also great (although the plate presentation was slightly lacking for the burger). Would recommend stopping here for a bite to eat!"

11 BEST Lake Bled Restaurants to Try Now (2024)
True Slovenian cuisine reigns supreme at Restavracija Central Bled, a humble restaurant in town. The humble eatery serves country favorites such as kranjska klobasa (parboiled sausage, similar to kielbasa), štruklji (rolled Slovenian cheese dumplings), and golaž (goulash). I tried štruklji at Old Cellar Bled and enjoyed it—the dish is totally unlike any other dumplings in the world and is more similar to a cut and boiled or baked wrap.
