“ Rural and typical Bosnian restaurant - great kitchen, which never disappoints and really great prices ”
“ This is the restaurant which offers authentic traditional meals in Balkans art... If you visited Sarajevo someday I really recommend to spend your lunch or supper time there. The meals are fantastic the crew is so kind and they have very moderate prices. It's location is at the Sarajevo International Airport so it can be easily reached without significant effort. The place is clean, family friendly and you can enjoy the Balkans spirit. It is allowed to smoke inside the building so sometimes it is annoying if you smell smoke during your lunch but it is normal in this part of the world. ”
“ Food is excellent, prices are as well. Staff is very welcoming and helpful. We'll come back again! ”
“ I must state that I was sort of disappointed. I hate when there is not no smoking palace in the restaurant. Everywhere lot of smoke. But this is a general problem in Balkan. The food was really good. Beer only Jelen in bottle. Salad was perfect! I had Sopski salad double sized full of fresh vegetable. I enjoyed it a lot. Pljeskavica I had choosen the option Gurmanska, that was meat mixed with cheese and onions. Very good choice. For non smokers I recommend to sit outside. ”
“ The best hang out place in the area. One of the finest small restaurants around. Splendid food, cozy, friendly and serene atmosphere. Highly recommended. ”
