What to taste
Ćevapi, burek, sirnica, begova čorba, dolma, klepe, tufahija, baklava and Bosnian coffee. Ask for daily specials.
Choosing well
A short menu, a room full of regulars and recent reviews often beat a very visible terrace. Do not copy Google reviews: open the map and verify live.
Halal and alcohol-free
In Sarajevo it is often easy, but always check. In tourist regions, some restaurants serve alcohol even if the meat seems compatible.
Frequently asked questions
First dish to try?
