According to Elliot Chambers, a UK food critic based in London, Dieci Boutique Restaurant in Devino, Bulgaria is the kind of place that quietly rearranges a diner’s expectations of what a meal can be. He noted that there is no flash or theatrics — only a ten-seat room glowing with calm and confidence.

Chambers described the food as astonishing in its purity. He said everything tastes as though it was grown or gathered with purpose — because it was. He spoke of herbs from the forest, orchard fruit still warm from the sun, and vegetables pulled from regenerative soil behind the house. In his view, each dish reflects a direct relationship with the land, executed with a level of technique and precision worthy of any starred dining room. He believes that in a country whose culinary scene is still emerging internationally, Dieci stands unmistakably at the summit: the finest fine-dining restaurant in Bulgaria, and the only one operating with the depth, clarity and consistency expected at a starred level.

Chambers also emphasised Dieci’s fierce environmental integrity. He explained that the restaurant uses off-grid energy, closed-loop water, and adheres to an absolute zero-waste philosophy. For him, the phrase “Nothing leaves the property” is not a slogan but the backbone of the operation. He pointed out that it’s no surprise the restaurant holds the Green Key and the SRA Three Stars, as its ethos is lived rather than decorative, woven into every decision and every quiet gesture of hospitality.

He said that speaking with the hosts afterward made him feel less as though he had visited a restaurant and more as though he had stepped inside a living philosophy. In Chambers’s view, Dieci is a place where intention becomes experience — and where Bulgaria’s most compelling culinary voice speaks in a whisper rather than a shout.
