Restaurant Sedem

Visiting experience -2024

Are you brave enough? Allow yourself to be surprised! The quality-price ratio at Restaurant Sedem is such that everyone must walk from the city centre! The people of Maribor should do so, so that each of them could indulge at least once a year in the seven-course tasting menu prepared by students who have a desire to be the best at what they do. Foodies (from everywhere) do so to leave it to the chef and to compare the school restaurant with real ones, albeit only the best ones in Slovenia. Tourists on a short visit to Maribor come to taste the curd cheese štruklji, which aren’t only homemade as they are elsewhere, but have also been imaginatively transformed into one of the Seven ”Wonders” in the spirit of modern tastes.
