Kafana is a cozy restaurant serving authentic Balkan cuisine. The service is impeccable, with friendly and professional staff. The food is delicious, with standout dishes including cevapi, Lepinja Sa Kajmakom (cream cheese bread), and roasted peppers. The portions are generous, and the atmosphere is homey and inviting. The restaurant has a small ATM nearby for cash-only transactions. With a lengthy menu of regional wines and a cozy vibe, Kafana is a great spot for those looking for a taste of Serbia in a welcoming setting.
The menu features traditional Balkan specialties, such as the fluffy, grilled lepinja bread filled with creamy kajmak cheese and dry-aged pork loin. Guests can also enjoy a plate of roasted red peppers topped with pickled feferons, or the Serbian burger, pljeskavica, pressed into a loaf of lepinja and served with a schmear of ajvar relish. The restaurant's French fries, or "pomfrit," are also highly praised.
Recent reviews highlight the authenticity of the Balkan cuisine, with the feta spinach pie, kebabs, and wrapped schnitzel receiving particular praise. The restaurant's impressive wine list from the Balkan region is also a draw for diners.
