The Best Steakhouses Near ALPIK Chalets, by the Record

The Frierss family built their name on sausages and cured meats, and their butcher shop and deli sit right next door to this modern steakhouse in Villach, so the supply chain is unusually short. Barbecued steaks are the draw, though the open kitchen turns out fish and vegetarian dishes too. A wallet-friendly lunch deal keeps the midday crowd happy, and you can even stop in for breakfast, which is a sensible use of a butcher's morning.

An open grill sits in the middle of the dining room, which tells you most of what you need to know about this casual grill restaurant on Ljubljana's old town square. It sits between the castle road and the river promenade, and a table on that riverside terrace in summer is the obvious move. Grilled ribeye, fish, and scampi are the thing here, and the wine list leans into Slovenian labels, many available by the glass.
