Without a doubt, one of thé best places to visit when in Rovinj! A real hidden gem, easily missed, but so worth it! The stairs lead to a little shop, owned by a lovely lady, which has some of the best wines and spritzes we have tasted while in Rovinj. After getting your drinks, sit down on the stairs and enjoy a beautiful sunset in peace. The ambiance is one the greatest you will find! I highly recommend stopping by!

A wonderful stop for truffle lovers. Although there weren’t vegan dishes on the menu, the owner happily created a beautiful vegan truffle canapé platter by substituting ingredients, and it ended up being one of my favorite meals in Rovinj (so much so, I ordered a second one on the same evening). Wonderful hospitality, excellent truffle products, and a beautiful spot to enjoy a drink by the waterfront. Highly recommend!

This place - wow. It’s a truffle shop - I don’t like truffle, but it sells wine (buy the bottle) and you can drink it on probably the best staircase in Europe! The team (I suspect mum and daughter) are beautiful people!

Lovely family-owned shop selling an array of truffles and truffle-based products! Marco, knowledgeable, energetic and kind, was super helpful with walking me through the variety of truffles they have in the shop. The white truffles with mushrooms and balsamic with white truffles are an absolute must try and are top quality! Hvala and I’ll be back.

Stopped in for a beautiful sunset and had some fabulous wine and cheese board full of truffle cheese. It was out of this world! Mirjana was so friendly, helpful and interesting. A hidden treasure!
