Best schnitzel in town!!!…read more Hidden gem restaurant, reminds me of the one I had in Vienna last year I would say it's one of the best schnitzel in town! The schnitzel was gigantic, the size was bigger than my head lol, I ordered the pork schnitzel, it was perfectly brown yet inside wasn't dry at all^^ and i chose the potato salad for the side, it was delicious, ultra creamy, and well seasoned. The staff and the owner are very nice and friendly, I would definitely going back there again!

Great food, enormous portions and friendly service. Would recommend to everyone. Will come back.read more

Best deal in town for $12...Of course, the homemade Spazle are hard to resist ...but perfect for sharing! The down to earth, friendly owner, Herbert, gave my husband tips on how to create their authentic home made Spazle! We go towards the end of Happy Hour and it's perfect timing for an early dinner! Where do you get a glass of Happy Hour wine for $5, personally chosen daily. We have made it a regular event to get together with friends a few times a month to enjoy a true German experience, staff included! Brian was always our server and made us feel like we were coming home! I'm usually confused when I enter the cozy restaurant to find it not bursting at the seams with Happy guests? So don't spread the secret too much. My brother-in-law from Seattle, who visits quite often, loves the experience so much, he has requested that I spread his ashes in the flower pots at the entrance....lol...nothing I can add to that! Enjoy!!!

It was so hot that it was hard to enjoy the meal. Food was delicious though. Cooked so well and played very beautifully.

This is a cozy supermarket/restaurant that offers variety of Burek, grill, platters, and roasted meat. You can also buy cold deli, dairy products, snacks, frozen meat and burek, coffee, etc. from here. We ordered Chevap's (10p pieces) and cheese burek for our meal and Cupavi and Jabukova (they both include apples) for dessert. The portions of Chevap's were more than enough for one person; they comecwith onions and garlic sauce and 10 pieces would be $13.72. As for the Burek and desserts, they're priced according to their weight. The staff were friendly and patient with us, since we didn't know what to order. I also liked the vibe there; mostly senior people from their community come together here for a chat.

Very spacious for group dining, couples or solo! I definitely wanted to try the Shopska salad and the Cevapi (chevapi) plate so that's what I ordered and it did not disappoint!! A must-order is the bread called lepinja (lepin-ya). It comes with a fresh cheese called kajmak (k-eye-mak) The cevapi plate comes with your choice of 3 sides - coleslaw with oil/vinegar, potatoes, diced raw onions, or baked beans. Everything was fantastic. The cevapi were perfectly done. Lepinja and kajmak were amazing. Kajmak is home-made there, and you can buy some to go! Shopska salad features cucumbers, tomatoes, onions and green peppers in an oil/vinegar dressing with a mountain of shredded feta on top!!! Soooo good!!

We ordered lepinja sa kajmakom, which was a homestyle bread with cream cheese. This was the star dish of the night omg, priced at $5 for 4 pieces it instantly set the meal in the right direction! We then got the shopska salad which was a salad with tomato, cucumber, onion, green pepper, and feta. Salad was mid, but it was nice to have greens as our main was the mesano meso, a grilled meat platter for 4. This platter was so filling and had different varieties of meats. The best meat in this selection was the sausage, I unfortunately found everything else a little lacklustre. Service was great throughout the night, ambiance was nothing super special. Verdict: come for the homestyle bread!! Still thinking about it haha

We went for a 5pm reservation and it filled up rather quickly. The host and all the servers were really wonderful and attentive. For a group of 3 they recommended 4 small plates and 2 large ones all to share. Something nice is that they have complimentary sparkling water which I enjoyed. We ordered the challah - both the butter and pâté versions - the BBQ salami, crispy potatoes, the turnips, the endive salad, and the chicken schnitzel. They brought out the bread and salami first as well as complimentary house-made coleslaw which was crispy, light, and added a perfect vinegary bite. The challah was warm and airy. I didn't try the butter but I thought the pâté was very nice and smooth. The BBQ salami was incredible!! The mustard was a nice compliment with the apricot flavour as well. The turnips, salad, and potatoes came next, followed quickly by the chicken. I loved everything. The pear in the salad was an unexpected highlight. The chicken was the standout for sure. I absolutely loved it. For dessert we tried the cheesecake which was nice, a good balance of tang and mild sweetness. The bathrooms are also nice with the little WC signs, the good paper towel, and the recipes in addition to other art prints on the walls. I don't normally comment on the washrooms, but these were cute. Overall, everything we ate was wonderful and the service was great! It came out to about $170 for us but we ordered the perfect amount. It was a bit pricey but I really enjoyed everything. I would highly recommend Maven.

This place is an absolute must try if you've never had Georgian cuisine. We also tried shkmeruli, which is roasted chicken leg quarters doused in the creamiest, most decadent garlic cream sauce. Kind of like alfredo on crack. And dipping into it with the khinkali bread?! Heaven. You have to experience it for yourself. Service was amazing, the waitstaff gave great hospitality and they all went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our experience. Shoutout to the girl who gave us a super fun tableside mixing presentation!! Try to get a table inside, however their street patio is nice to eat on when the weather is decent. Absolutely will be returning to try their lamb khinkali which unfortunately they were sold out of today. Prices were super reasonable for the amount of food we were served. There was even enough for leftovers between two girls who hadn't eaten all day & had smoked right before coming here.

I really enjoyed eating here. They make authentic pljeskavica and cevapi, served with tasty kajmak,…read morejust what I was missing after my adventure through the former Yugoslavian Republic. The restaurant owner greeted me and was very friendly, asking me about my trip to Bosnia and Croatia. He's actually a Serbian from Bosnia so this must be where the 'authentic' comes into play. Service was great and everything was clean. They have WiFi and there are several parking spots in front. As for the food, it's more expensive than many other cheap eats in the area, but it does have a higher-end ambience and the food tastes better too. I do wish the meat were a bit juicier though, but the kajmak (sour cream) and ajvar (non-spicy red sauce) do make up for it. I also wish that they had a sommun (pita-like) or any soft wrap-type bread rather than the thick and inflexible bread they used. They also serve more traditional diner favourites such as all-day breakfast and souvlaki. But go for the Balkan food.
