JAZ by Ana Roš

JAZ by Ana Roš is a landmark dining destination in the Slovenian capital, the urban counterpart to the three-Michelin-star Hiša Franko in the Soča Valley. Opened in 2023 on Čopova ulica in the vibrant heart of Ljubljana, the restaurant brings the internationally acclaimed vision of chef Ana Roš — named World’s Best Female Chef in 2017 by the World’s 50 Best — to a broader audience without compromising on quality or ambition. The name JAZ means self in Slovenian, capturing the deeply personal nature of the project. The menu is built on a foundation of exceptional local ingredients selected with the same rigorous sourcing philosophy that defines Hiša Franko, combined with international influences shaped by Ana Roš’s travels and her relentless curiosity. Dishes draw on Mediterranean flavours and contemporary European technique while remaining deeply rooted in the landscape and seasons of Slovenia. The dining room is designed to feel both sophisticated and welcoming, with elegant contemporary interiors that reflect the dual sensibility of the restaurant: serious about food while accessible in spirit. JAZ has received recognition in the Michelin Guide and has quickly established itself as the most talked-about restaurant in Ljubljana. The wine programme is carefully curated, with strong representation from Slovenian natural wine producers alongside international selections. Reservations are highly recommended.
