    I’ve had really bad service experiences here in the past (waiter kept me waiting for 15 minutes and then screamed at me when I asked if he could reduce the volume of the music - I was the only person in the restaurant that time and was trying to get work done on a laptop) but kept coming back because of the food. I still recommend their breakfast as far as these things in Sarajevo go. It’s not half bad. But having now tried their “signature” beefsteak entree with melted cheese for 35KM and the Greek salad this evening, I unfortunately need to lower my rating further. This is not at all good food - for the price or otherwise. The “beefsteak” I asked for “medium rare” is not a full steak but just a few slices of a seemingly quite poor cut of beef. You can get much better beef just by going to the butcher a few blocks away in Sarajevo. The “medium rare” I asked for has resulted in a woefully undercooked and cold tasting steak. I would not be surprised if it was reheated. The mozzarella melted on top is not very good mozzarella either. The only thing I can compliment in this dish are the roasted potatoes (essentially fries) and the sauce the chef makes. I suppose it cuts into their margin less to keep these things at a high quality? But for 35KM in central Sarajevo this dish represents neither good food nor good value. The Greek salad I’ve been served also looks distinctly unappetizing - and not like a traditional Greek salad (maybe there is no good feta in Bosnia because of import restrictions? But I still suspect they could have prepares this to be more traditional / better looking even if so) - but I will update this review if it tastes better than it looks.

    Nice place, a little hidden and out of the way but cosy inside. Waitress was helpful and speedy. Big portions and good price!

    For two ordinary Sarajevsko beers and two glasses of rakija we paid 20 KM and didn't even get a bill, so I think the bartender just made the price in his head. We didn't have time to argue.

    One of the most authentic cafe's in Sarajevo. The staff is amazing and very friendly. We ordered a pizza with a traditional Bosnian twist (with kajmak and sudjuka) which was very delightful. Also the location is amazing - you're looking at the pedestrian street but not sitting in it. And if you walk down the street there's a whole street dedicated to partying. And the toilets are sanitary as well. If I could give this place 10 stars, I would. Can't wait till summer time to visit again.

    The food is on par with the other outstanding meat based restaurants of the City Center but the service is slower. And that is saying a lot!

  • 5/5 Alice F. 1 year ago on Google
    It’s just the best place in Sarajevo, both for the amazing service and the incredible quality of food. Make sure you go there when you’re around, it’s also right in the city center :)

    Grilled chicken in sauce was top notch. The sauce was amaying and the chicken done perfectly. You could have cut the chicken with a spoon. Fries were good. BUT risotto was bland. Risotto with chciken, had almost no flavour to it. Atmosphere was nice and the staff was polite.

    We ate musaka and klepe (local version of pierogi or dumplings, whatever). Both portions were quite big and tasty, so we left satisfied. Waiter was helpful. Plus you may sit and eat on one of the most beautiful Sarajevo’s street - great memory :)

👍 A solid spot but maybe a little overhyped / over-mentioned. Service and food was fine but nothing mind-blowing. A safe bet.
