Ratinger Straße 28, 40213 Düsseldorf

+49 211 1374716

Im Füchschen is a house brewery and restaurant on Ratinger Straße in Düsseldorf's old town. Brewing and eating belong together here: the kitchen works in the Rhineland tradition, with seasonal ingredients from the region and a substantial selection of familiar German dishes. Pork knuckle is a house specialty, accompanied by red cabbage or sauerkraut and a choice of potatoes or creamy mashed potatoes. Another plate serves the meat off the bone with Altbier sauce. Sauerbraten with red cabbage and dumplings, schnitzel with cranberries, and boiled beef with horseradish sauce show other sides of the same hearty cooking. Smaller appetites can turn to topped rolls, soups or cheese. The brewery's beer also finds its way into the food, including Mainzer cheese marinated in Füchschen Alt with onions and caraway. A shared brewery platter brings together several meats and traditional accompaniments for a group. Vegetarian and vegan dishes have their own section rather than appearing only as side orders, and there are smaller dishes for children. Breakfast is another part of the offer, with a brewery breakfast of meats, cheese and different breads, or fried eggs on bread with ham. The kitchen is led by Sabine Treckmann, while owner Peter König's background combines cooking and brewing. The brewery describes a longstanding connection between its building, its beer and the restaurant. Groups of eight or more can request a reservation by telephone or email; smaller parties are looked after on arrival.

Kaiserstraße 5, 40479 Düsseldorf

+49 211 15859800

Rubens brings Austrian cooking to Kaiserstraße in Düsseldorf, with Cornelia and Ruben Baumgart as its hosts. Cornelia comes from southeastern Styria and has worked internationally in hotel management; Ruben combines northern German and Austrian roots with experience in Austrian restaurant kitchens. Together they approach the food of the Alpine republic through both tradition and contemporary cooking. Guests can choose individual dishes à la carte or follow a menu, giving the restaurant room for different ways of exploring its cuisine. The kitchen follows a nose to tail principle, making thoughtful use of ingredients a central part of its approach. Allergies and intolerances should be discussed when arranging a visit so the team can prepare appropriately. Beyond regular restaurant tables, Rubens has several distinct settings for private dining. The bright ground floor accommodates up to fifty five guests at several tables, with standing tables also possible for events. Downstairs, the Stubn offers a single table for nine in a setting with the character of a wine room. The Safe seats twelve around one table in a former vault, giving a smaller gathering a rather different backdrop. A small foyer connects the two downstairs rooms and can serve as the setting for an aperitif reception. The entire lower floor can also be hired exclusively. Weddings, company gatherings and personal celebrations can be arranged with the team, while catering extends from finger food receptions to meals with several courses. Reservations can be requested through the restaurant's booking link or by contacting the hosts directly.

August-Thyssen-Straße 129, 45481 Mülheim an der Ruhr

Quellenstraße 20, 45481 Mülheim an der Ruhr

+49 208 4689555

Trattoria Fati serves Italian food in a former mustard factory in Mülheim-Saarn. The old industrial building gives the restaurant a particular local setting, while its menu follows Italian classics and seasonal ingredients. In addition to the regular selection, special dishes are displayed on large slate boards, so it is worth looking at those before deciding what to order. Pizza is highlighted for the lunch period, and the restaurant also offers its food to take away. That makes the address useful for different sorts of day: a planned meal in the dining room, a lunchtime pizza stop or a collection order for a quieter evening elsewhere. Ask which dishes are being offered when you call, especially if you are interested in a seasonal recommendation from the boards. In warmer months, the garden terrace opens in good weather. Flowers and herbs are part of the outdoor setting, providing a different atmosphere from the rooms inside the old factory. If you prefer to eat outdoors, check that the terrace is operating on your chosen day instead of assuming that an indoor table booking guarantees a garden place. The postal address is 20 Quellenstraße, but the entrance to the restaurant's own car park is reached from Straßburger Allee. Service is split between lunch and evening from Tuesday to Friday, with Saturday opening later and Sunday running from noon. Telephone the restaurant directly to confirm your visit or takeaway collection.

Prinzeß-Luise-Straße 189, 45479 Mülheim an der Ruhr

+49 208 20586015

La Cantina is an Italian restaurant on Prinzeß-Luise-Straße with an unusually broad pasta selection. Homemade linguine, tagliatelle, ravioli and cannelloni are prominent, alongside pizza, antipasti, fish and meat dishes. It is a useful choice when one person wants a simple Italian classic and another prefers a more elaborate combination without changing restaurants. The pasta menu ranges from linguine with garlic, chilli and olive oil to ravioli with goat's cheese and figs in sage butter. Seafood combinations, salmon-filled ravioli and spinach-and-ricotta cannelloni provide other directions. A separate special card brings additional ideas and seasonal ingredients, so check what is available when you arrive rather than relying on a particular special throughout the year. Pizza includes familiar Margherita and ham-and-mushroom options as well as combinations such as pear with Gorgonzola or prawns with rocket. Children have their own pizza, pasta and small schnitzel choices. Desserts include homemade tiramisu, panna cotta and zabaglione, allowing the meal to finish in a recognisably Italian style. Find La Cantina at 189 Prinzeß-Luise-Straße. The published timetable starts at 16:00 from Tuesday to Saturday, with lunch service from noon on Sundays and public holidays; Monday is closed. Telephone or email ahead for current availability and discuss allergies or ingredient questions directly with the restaurant before choosing from the larger menu.

Am Schloss Broich 38, 45479 Mülheim an der Ruhr

+49 208 44469344

Ronja is a vegetarian and vegan restaurant inside Mülheim's Ringlokschuppen, close to Schloss Broich and the MüGa park. Its Mediterranean approach brings together vegetables, pulses, herbs and familiar comfort-food formats. The kitchen works with seasonal ingredients and local suppliers where possible, including vegetables from kleines Grün in Mülheim, and supplements its regular menu with changing weekly dishes. The selection goes well beyond a single meat-free alternative. You can start with hummus, couscous salad, aubergine and tomato sugo, or a mixed warm plate with falafel and stuffed vine leaves. Main dishes include vegetable curry, celery or soy schnitzel, plant-based burgers and several pizzas. Vegan adaptations are offered for suitable dishes, while gluten-free requests should be discussed with the kitchen rather than assumed possible for everything. There is an open indoor dining area and a large terrace looking towards the green surroundings of the Ringlokschuppen. Reservations are accepted for indoor tables only; the terrace operates with free choice of available seats. This is a useful distinction when planning an outdoor meal after a park visit or before an event nearby. Breakfast has its own morning timetable, followed by regular service from noon Tuesday to Sunday. Monday is closed. Ronja also offers collection and delivery. Find it at 38 Am Schloss Broich, and use the direct telephone or email for an indoor reservation or a dietary question.

Kämpchenstraße 59, 45468 Mülheim an der Ruhr

+49 208 390598

Amfipolis is an established Greek restaurant on Kämpchenstraße, with both indoor dining rooms and a terrace. Traditional Greek cooking and homemade preparations define the offer. It also accepts takeaway orders, so the same address can work for a sit-down evening or food to enjoy back at your accommodation. The starter selection is particularly varied. Alongside tzatziki, olives and taramas, the menu includes stuffed vine leaves, parsley salad with sheep's cheese, and salads made with calamari or octopus. A mixed Pikilia plate brings several of those flavours together. Warm choices include mushrooms filled with spinach and cheese, fried courgette and aubergine, and pastries with courgette and sheep's cheese. The restaurant publishes specific access information that can help with planning: a ramp is available at a separate entrance, there are wheelchair-suitable toilets, and reserved parking spaces sit immediately in front of the building. Mention your requirements when reserving so the team can explain the entrance and seating arrangements. Its function rooms can also be arranged for special occasions, including outside ordinary opening hours by agreement. The address is 59 Kämpchenstraße. Regular service begins at 17:00 Monday to Saturday, while Sundays and public holidays start at noon. Use the direct telephone or email to confirm your table, takeaway collection or group arrangements, and ask about current dishes if you have a particular Greek speciality in mind.

Stoja 23, 52100 Pula

+38598254421

Mon–Sun 13:00–23:00

Oštaria Gina is a small restaurant on Stoja with nine tables and views towards the sea and pine woods. Wine is central to the way the kitchen works. The team chooses bottles for the day and creates dishes to accompany them, taking account of the weather as well as the ingredients its trusted suppliers can provide. Local fishermen bring fish from the night's catch, and agricultural producers contribute fresh produce. This creates a changing daily menu rather than an offer that can be assumed to remain identical from visit to visit. Traditional Istrian food sits alongside an interest in natural wines and older approaches to winemaking. The hosts describe tasting the selected wines and the food prepared for that particular day as the heart of a meal here. When circumstances allow, they also explain how individual dishes are made and share something of their kitchen knowledge. The family history reaches back to farming and food production in the nineteenth century. Gina continued that tradition by opening Buffet Gina in 1969, after earlier work in hospitality. The family's account recalls a jukebox supplied with records by sailors and travelers, simple snacks of prosciutto, cheese and salted sardines in colder weather, and an outdoor charcoal grill in warmer months. Those details belong to its history, while today's restaurant places the relationship between wine and the day's food at the forefront. With so few tables, arranging a visit directly with the restaurant is especially useful. Reservations can be discussed by phone or email.

Stoja 4, 52100 Pula

+38552300200

Milan combines a restaurant, hotel and enoteca at Stoja 4 in Pula. The Matić family describes the business as a project carried forward by three generations, with Istrian ingredients at the centre of its cooking. Its culinary approach connects Mediterranean and continental influences while allowing the main ingredient to remain recognizable. Preparations range from simple dishes to more elaborate plates, with an emphasis on aromas and flavors rather than excessive intervention. One particularly personal ingredient is the family's own olive oil, made from olives grown just a few kilometers from Milan. The restaurant uses it to enrich its food and connect the table with the nearby landscape. Inside, contemporary design is combined with Art Deco elements. The family presents the dining room as a setting for both business meals and private occasions, with attentive but unobtrusive hospitality. The enoteca offers another part of the experience: a space conceived for conversation, privacy and time spent with the restaurant's food. The hotel and restaurant share the same address and contact number, making direct contact straightforward when planning a meal or an overnight visit. Pula's tourism office lists Milan as an evening dining venue and distinguishes its winter arrangements from the rest of the year. That makes checking the current service before visiting sensible. Together, the family continuity, local olive oil and carefully considered dining spaces give Milan a distinct identity within Pula's restaurant scene.

Sisplac 15, 52100 Pula

+38552386074

Mon–Sat 12:00–22:00; Sun Closed

Farabuto cooks on Sisplac in Pula, with an approach built around small producers and whatever ingredients are ready that day. Vegetables, meat and cheese come from small family farms, while its seafood is drawn from the Adriatic around Pula and towards Kvarner. Fish, scampi, shellfish, octopus and squid shape this side of the kitchen. The selection follows the seasons and can change from one day to the next, with the day's catch prepared when it arrives rather than treated as a fixed promise on a permanent menu. Pasta is made in the kitchen: homemade noodles and cheese-filled ravioli are paired with seasonal sauces. A meal can begin with warm house bread and Istrian olive oil, with Belci, Salvela, Chiavalon and Šlajner among the producers the restaurant names. Meat dishes described by the house include pan-cooked young goat, beef cheeks with horseradish and aged ribeye from the grill. These are examples of its cooking rather than a guarantee that every dish will be available on every visit. Alongside the Croatian dishes, the restaurant also offers vegetarian choices. There is outdoor seating for a meal in warm weather and an air-conditioned interior. Guests can arrange a table directly by phone, and the restaurant also advertises takeaway. Free Wi-Fi is available. For visitors interested in seasonal Istrian cooking, the combination of handmade pasta, local oils and a changing seafood selection gives a clear sense of the kitchen's priorities.

Castropola 42, 52100 Pula

+38552214333

Pizzeria Jupiter occupies a side street in central Pula leading towards the Historical and Maritime Museum of Istria. The restaurant opened in 1990 and has developed beyond pizza into a broader selection of pasta, grilled dishes, salads and seafood. Its setting includes two spacious terraces, with the house emphasizing a rustic atmosphere and smaller corners within the larger outdoor spaces. Pizza is baked in a bread oven, and the kitchen describes its dough recipe as a longstanding part of the business. The selection ranges from a simple tomato-and-cheese Margherita to pizzas with prosciutto, seafood, vegetables or truffle sauce. The house Jupiter combines mushrooms, prosciutto, artichoke and egg, while Istriana brings together mozzarella, prosciutto, arugula and cherry tomatoes. Beyond pizza, Istrian pljukanci appear with prosciutto and arugula, and other pasta dishes combine seafood, mushrooms or truffles. The grill section includes beef ćevapčići, chicken, pork skewers and steaks, giving mixed groups several directions to choose from. Seafood dishes include squid, tuna steak and sea bass or sea bream. Pancakes come with a range of sweet fillings, including chocolate, nuts and fruit combinations. Ingredients are bought from local producers whenever possible, according to the restaurant. Jupiter takes guests without reservations. Its name comes from a belief that a temple to the Roman god once stood on the site; the restaurant presents this as a supposition, adding a historical thread to its old-town address.

Epulonova 3, 52100 Pula

+38552383802

Restaurant Epulon belongs to Hotel Galija on Epulonova Street in central Pula. The family hotel presents the restaurant as part of its hospitality since 1991, with cooking that draws on traditional Istrian dishes and international recipes. Fresh ingredients from local suppliers guide a seasonal menu, and the kitchen places particular emphasis on homemade food, simplicity and creativity. Rather than describing a fixed set of signature dishes, the house explains its approach through the produce available during each season. This makes it a place to explore the kitchen's current interpretation of regional cooking. A terrace with a movable roof provides 56 seats and can be adapted to summer or winter conditions, giving the restaurant a setting that changes with the weather. The offer also includes a wine list, with food and wine presented together as part of the dining experience. Private meals and events are another part of the restaurant's work. Epulon can be hired exclusively for up to 55 guests, including private parties, corporate dining and wedding receptions. Set menus for these occasions draw on classic Istrian cooking and seasonal ingredients, and the team handles arrangements directly. The surrounding hotel also accommodates business gatherings and seminars, making the restaurant relevant to visitors organizing a meal around a meeting. For travelers staying at Hotel Galija, half-board and full-board dining arrangements are available. The restaurant and hotel share the Epulonova address, while inquiries about a regular visit can be made through the hotel's published contact details.

Rovinjska Ulica 10, 52210 Rovinjsko Selo

+385917368559

Konoba Klepa brings Macedonian cooking and a Leskovac style charcoal grill to Rovinjsko Selo. Its address on Rovinjska Ulica puts it west of the supplied Kanfanar home centre, about four kilometres away in a straight line. The village setting offers an alternative direction for a meal when planning an outing from the accommodation. Meat from the charcoal grill forms one part of the menu, with ćevapi, pljeskavica, ribs and steaks. Alongside these are Macedonian dishes including tavče gravče, with beans, and accompaniments such as ajvar, makalo and šopska salad. Several vegetable preparations are explicitly marked vegan or vegetarian, so the choice extends beyond grilled meat. The drinks selection continues the Macedonian connection through Tikveš wines, Skopsko beer and rakija. Pancakes and syrup soaked semolina cake appear among the desserts. Guests can reserve a table by telephone, and the restaurant also hosts birthdays, christenings and private celebrations. Parking is available for guests, with cards and cash accepted. Rovinjsko Selo belongs to the Rovinj area and lies near Žuntići; Romualdo Cave is northeast of the village restaurant. For visitors staying around the supplied home point, this makes Klepa a nearby option to consider when combining a village stop with exploring the surrounding countryside. The combination of grilled dishes, bean dishes, dips and salads allows a table to choose several different elements of the meal rather than follow a single set menu.

Ulica Zidine 14, 52466 Novigrad

+38552356700

Porporela Restaurant & Sunset Bar belongs to Blu Mare Hotel on Ulica Zidine, beside the waterfront of Novigrad's old town. The restaurant combines sea views with Mediterranean cooking under Daniel Engelhardt, whose approach favours regional ingredients and a light, contemporary treatment. A separate sunset bar adds another setting for drinks and smaller dishes, while the restaurant offers a more composed meal. The autumn menu moves between the Adriatic and the Istrian countryside. Sea bass carpaccio is paired with lime, ginger and radish; grilled octopus comes with baby spinach and olive nut pesto. Traditional fuži pasta appears with Istrian truffle and a Malvasia reduction, while pumpkin risotto is accompanied by prawns and sage. These combinations give familiar local ingredients a distinctive arrangement without losing their regional connection. Main courses include the day's fish, served whole or as a fillet with lemon potatoes and seasonal vegetables. Tuna is matched with squid ink pasta, tomato, fermented garlic and preserved lemon. Meat choices include beef tenderloin with a truffle crust and a lamb dish using several cuts. Vegetarian and vegan dishes are explicitly identified, including slow cooked aubergine with bulgur, chickpeas and a red pepper glaze. Desserts continue the individual approach with fig cheesecake, tonka bean crème brûlée and homemade sorbets. For a private gathering, the Chef's Table offers an intimate dining room decorated with vines and wood. Together, the dining room, bar and coastal setting give visitors several ways to enjoy the same address.

Zidine 5, 52466 Novigrad

+38552758134

Damir & Ornella occupies a small address on Zidine in Novigrad, where the kitchen gives Adriatic seafood a particularly spare treatment. Raw fish, olive oil, salt and pepper form the centre of the cooking, with carefully chosen accompaniments adding different textures and flavours. This is a place to explore the fish itself and the effect of a few ingredients around it. The seafood selection includes raw Kvarner shrimp paired with melon, a combination that sets delicate shellfish against fresh fruit. Raw fish also appears with polenta finished with black truffle. Another preparation brings Adriatic squid together with Istrian olive oil from the Belić family, salt, mixed pepper and aged balsamic vinegar. Scallops and smaller white scallops continue the shellfish theme, while soft crabs are accompanied by olive oil, balsamic vinegar and Malvazija wine. Lobster prepared in the Catalan style is paired with fried asparagus. Alongside these seafood dishes, the kitchen makes its own pasta, including tagliatelle, gnocchi and spaghetti, using stone-ground Italian flour. Homemade desserts provide a final course, and the ice cream has an olive oil accompaniment that carries an ingredient from the savoury cooking through to the end of the meal. Wine is another part of the restaurant's approach to seafood. The dining room has space for roughly two dozen people, making this a compact setting for a meal built around the Adriatic. Dogs are welcome, and reservations can be requested directly.

Zidine 10, 52466 Novigrad

+38552255555

Mon 18:00–22:00; Tue–Sun 12:00–22:00

Konoba Gatto Nero is tucked into Zidine, a small street close to the sea in Novigrad. Its kitchen combines seafood, meat and homemade pasta, using carefully selected local ingredients, many from organic cultivation. The range makes it possible to approach the meal through several different parts of Istrian cooking, from shellfish to truffles. Seafood preparations draw on Kvarner scampi, squid and octopus, alongside scallops, other local shellfish and John Dory. These ingredients give the coastal side of the menu its character. The meat selection includes beef steak, cheeks and goulash, offering a different direction for guests who prefer a meal from the land. Homemade ravioli, tagliatelle and gnocchi sit between these two strands of the kitchen. Fritaja, the regional egg dish, is prepared with fresh black or white truffles, bringing another recognisable Istrian ingredient to the table. The restaurant also gives attention to vegetarian and vegan diners and to people who need to discuss gluten or other allergens. Guests with particular dietary requirements can raise them with the team when arranging their visit. Outdoor seating adds an alternative to the dining space, and the restaurant welcomes pets. Wi-Fi is available, and payment can be made in cash or with the listed bank cards. Reservations are offered directly by the restaurant. With its combination of seafood, pasta and meat dishes, Gatto Nero gives a mixed group several ways to build a meal around local ingredients without all choosing the same style of food.

Rivarela ulica 17, 52466 Novigrad

+38552726469

Stars Restoran occupies a spot on Rivarela, the waterfront along the southern side of Novigrad's old town. The nearby cinema CMIK and the coastal promenade make it easy to combine a meal with a walk through this compact part of town. It is a family restaurant established in 2009, with a terrace facing the sea. Seafood is the natural starting point here, although the menu also leaves room for guests who prefer something from the land. A meal might begin with octopus salad or anchovies, followed by grilled fish, squid or shellfish cooked in buzara sauce. Pasta and risotto provide another way into the coastal cooking, while vegetarian spaghetti offers an alternative to the fish dishes. The selection changes with the catch and the season, so choosing what appeals on the day is part of the experience. The setting gives the restaurant much of its character. Rather than travelling out into the countryside for a meal, guests can stay beside the water and watch the waterfront around them. The terrace suits visitors who want the view to be part of the occasion, with conversation and a succession of dishes taking centre stage. Tables can be reserved by telephone. For a holiday based in Novigrad, Stars offers a straightforward combination of family hospitality, a substantial seafood choice and an old town location that works naturally with exploring on foot.

Mon–Sun 11:00–22:30

La Rivarella is a family restaurant on Novigrad's Rivarela waterfront, with a terrace directly beside the sea. Established in 2023, it brings together the work of a chef and his parents. His route home included kitchens at the Dolder Grand in Zürich, Grand Tirolia in Kitzbühel, and Vienna's Plachutta and Figlmüller. That background informs a restaurant centred on personal hospitality, Adriatic ingredients and carefully assembled plates. Fish and homemade pasta are prominent, with several dishes showing how the kitchen combines familiar ingredients with a more elaborate presentation. Pearl of the Adriatic pairs scampi with a crisp cuttlefish ink base, herb oil and foam. Lobster tagliatelle comes with tomato sauce, basil, claws and tail, and is presented as a dish to share. The house surf and turf brings steak and scampi together with mushroom, roasted cherry tomato, mashed potato and a dark jus. There are simpler ways to begin, too. The starters include Istrian prosciutto, a selection of cheeses, beef tartare, vitello tonnato and sea bass carpaccio. The wider menu follows the catch and the season, while the family's cooking also draws on Istrian truffles and olive oil from neighbouring producers. Children's portions are available across the menu, making the restaurant practical for a family table as well as a meal for two. Reservations are taken over WhatsApp. The waterfront terrace is the defining setting: a place to settle into a shared meal with the sea immediately alongside.

Mandrač 12, 52466 Novigrad

+38552730398

Konoba Parangal stands beside Novigrad's mandrač, the small old harbour where boats remain part of the view. This family tavern has been here since 2016, with tables outside beneath old olive trees and shade sails. Its name comes from a traditional fishing line with smaller hooked lines attached along it, a fitting connection to the seafood on the menu. The kitchen prepares fish from the grill, baked in salt or in buzara sauce, with chard and potatoes alongside. Mussels, scallops, scampi and lobster also appear in buzara, the Adriatic preparation based on white wine, garlic and parsley. A house fish platter and mixed fried fish are intended for two people. Meat dishes broaden the choice beyond the catch. Beef steak, Istrian pork loin, skewers, pork ribs, ćevapi and pljeskavica are among the grilled options. Pasta includes fuži with truffles and prosciutto, as well as gnocchi, spaghetti and tagliatelle. Diners choosing dishes without meat or fish can look to four-cheese gnocchi, vegetable spaghetti, breaded mushrooms, grilled vegetables and salads. Istrian wines include bottles from Kozlović, Kabola and Deklić. The harbour setting and the broad menu make the experience that of a traditional konoba, with familiar regional dishes and room to choose between land and sea. Tables can be arranged by phone, which is especially useful during the busy season. Inside, old photographs of Novigrad and windows facing the harbour continue the connection between the dining room and the town outside.
