Bojan M, IL
Yes, you can probably get similar Serbian food elsewhere in Chicago but I PROMISE it will be nowhere nearly as creative or delicious. The owner is a perfect representation of Serbian hospitality and a lovely person. I will dream about the komplet lepinja.

Absolutely amazing food!! I have never had any food like this before, drove here from Michigan to experience this place. Will definitely return here anytime I'm in Chicago. The owner is very nice as well.

“ I just arrived in Chicago and promised my friend in Serbia I would try some of 'his' food and ended up picking this one based on the reviews.. I was not disappointed! Everyone was friendly, the place is beautiful, and not only is the food amazing (I had the punjenja paprika), you also get a lot! I will definitely be coming back again. 💜.”
