Simple decor and a short menu featuring Mitteleuropean dishes are the hallmarks of this trattoria where the pasta is homemade and the bread is baked in a wood-fired oven. Order the ljubljanska (a super-charged wiener schnitzel made of two slices of veal or pork stuffed with ham and cheese, breaded and fried), or the goulash and polenta.
