Best Balkan food in NJ! Halal , clean and always fresh meat products as well as fair price despite the overpriced similar restaurants. We have to support this friendly family owned warm ambience local business to have them keep up their great hospitality and service to our community. Thanks so much Emir & his siblings you are absolutely the best . Must try : mixed kebab so you can taste everything in once with great price :)
