4.6 / 5.0(5,017 reviews)

Our tasting experience was excellent. The menu was clear and organized well. The wait staff was knowledgeable about the menu items. All of our food was fresh, well seasoned, and delicious. The food came out quickly and at appropriate temperatures. The sarma and beef liver in particular were hits for me. The wood, stone, and black tile decorations were a wonderful canvas for the Bosnian decorations. I thought both the outdoor and indoor seating were well spaced and arranged. The wait staff was knowledgeable about the food but service was slow. I'm not sure if this is because we were seated inside and around a corner where our party was not as visible and fast through the meal like the outside guests. We also had one waiter at the start and then a different waiter soon after. For us being in Dubrovnik for only a day this was an excellent choice given the quality of the food and the diversity of options it provided. We ordered the lamb broth, cevapi and kebab, beef cevap, lamb ribs and roast lamb belly. The roast lamb belly is AMAZING. Super tender and flavourful. But the rest of the food is average. Beef cevap is the worst. The beef tastes like frozen caned beef super dry and chewy with no beef flavour. Definitely not recommend. Cevapi and kebab are quite dry and do not taste freshly made. It’s not like those we tasted in Bosnia which were super tender and juicy. Lamb ribs - the quality of the lamb is good, but had no taste and too oily. The lamb broth is not to my liking - it’s like goulash style thick soup with green beans etc. The candy in the Bosnian coffee is way too sweet. The coffee is super bitter but interesting if you haven’t tried Bosnian coffee before. Service of a waitress is a bit forceful and not very polite. The waiter is nice. Quite expensive for what it can offer. This place is always packed! Go at the time of your reservation! Spectacular food and service! We waited a bit so the gifted us som grappa shots. Really nice gesture of the people there. The food delicious. A bit of waiting time between dishes, but they were packed so nothing to do there… the dessert was the only thing normal not THAT GOOD. In general speaking it was fantastic!

We had a great dinner here, memorable. This restaurant was Michelin-recommended in the past, and it shows in the quality. For three people, including drinks and tip, we paid a very reasonable €150. We shared our food and it was good portions. The food was outstanding, the flavors were perfectly balanced, and the service was absolutely on point. When we arrived for our reservation, there was already a line of people waiting—so definitely make a reservation in advance for dinner. The atmosphere was warm and lively, with live accordion music and a stray kitten that added a lovely local touch. I’d definitely come back and highly recommend it to anyone visiting. A great value for such experience.

It’s Michelin approved restaurant for a reason! The service is excellent and the food is outstanding. We had the Burek Cigars and the traditional three dish combo which gave us a tasting variety that included meat balls with Mash, the stew and the stuffed pasta with mince! Just ask the waiting staff they’ll be happy to assist you. We ended the night with a Baklava Ince cream sandwich! Do not miss this spot when you visit the city!
