Relatives, if you are tormented by nostalgia, everything will be fine. But also vice versa. I don't know what Burek is like, maybe he is a king. Cevapi are tasteless, I would say with a lot of soy and pepper. A bakery and not making buns??!? It melts the frozen buns and grills them a little, soggy, crunchy. They have already commented that they reheat burek, cevape,...after my experience, I believe that it is true. The place is typically Bosnian, greasy, so it has a large clientele. They also use it to sit where the guests of the bar are. The prices are a little higher than the quality offered. But, as they say, take it or leave it... Don't say I didn't warn you. Pleasant!

WOW!!!!

I have eaten my fare share of Bureks in the Balkans and in the US but this one took the cake. We had an amazing dinner, the cevapi, the veal, were all excellent.
And all halal!

Thank you, we will be back soon!!

Place is great for cevape and Bosnian/ Macedonian food. My dad couldn’t stop raving about how it’s the most authentic cevap he’s ate since he went back to Zenica a couple years ago. He loves it and we will be back! Delicious food and sweets.

My wife and I visited Burek King on a Sunday and had a wonderful lunch. It’s a cozy spot but with several tables. The ladies working here are all very nice. We ordered a whole burek pie with meat and chevapi. Both items were brought to us, hot and fresh, and tasted delicious. The whole burek is pretty massive and we weren’t able to finish it, so we took it home for leftovers. It heats up very well and still tastes great the next day. This is a must-try spot for halal Bosnian food.

I tried Kiymali burek (meat burek), and it was delicious. I suggest everyone visit here (I’ve visited in the morning)

My family and I went here after Jumaa for lunch. I have a super picky 12 year old that literally only eats about 20 food items [you know fries and burgers and ketchup] and she was happy with the meat burek. We enjoyed the soups immensely. The bureks were eaten by all four of our "American eating' kids. My wife and I enjoyed the kebabs alongside the simple salad. The food is traditional Bosnian fare and so it's simple - but its prepared, cooked, and served with love and care. I honestly felt like we might have been in a village cafe somewhere in Bosnia - not in the streets of NJ. A great measure of the food is how it sits about an hour or two after eating and my wife who is generally very "reactive" to bad oils and GMO wheat / bad foods reported feeling satiated and happy afterwards as opposed to having a bloated stomach that one may have from eating "factory breads" with kabobs and fries at other halal cafes. The traditional Bosnian coffee [similar but sufficiently different to Turkish coffee] was also a treat. The "home made" sweets were also enjoyed by everyone. For a simple, wholesome, tasty, fresh meal served in a super clean cafe I would give this place 5 out 5 stars. More than anything else, its reasonably well priced - if not a steal.
For six people who all had drinks, a couple of bowls of soup, a plate of kebabs, burek slices all round, a small salad, sweets, and coffee we paid around $110. Definitely give it a go!
