My cousin recommended me to try their kevapi and Greek Salad .. It was my first time to try Bosnian cuisine I did want to try it bec I love Bosnia … So the kevabi was v v juicy and I went back to make sure it’s all beef ☺️so the owner assured it was I guess they have quality selected meats and cooking to make it super juicy and fully cooked… salad was fresh .. butter milk was good to taste ..my husband ate the rest of the meat plate so 1 meat order was enough for 2 and he liked it and said it feels like a real Bosnian kebab.. nice family owned business .. fair price and clean tooVegetarian options: Salads as far as I rememberParking: Easy just pay attention not to miss it like I did It took me a few turns to see itWheelchair accessibility: Yes

Was visiting from out of state. Our Bosnian restaurant closed so we were looking for this while traveling. Cozy little restaurant with basic menu selection but everything you need! Support this small business. Make your mouth happy.

This place is absolutely amazing!It was my first visit to Balkan Cafe and my first time trying Bosnian food. While sitting in my car nearby, googling trying to find a good lunch idea I can across this hidden gem. After reading a hand full of raving reviews it was only right for me to give it a try! Luckily it was only 1 minute from my location! As soon as I walked in the nice younger guy who was talking to a family nearby greeted me. I told him it was my first time in and I had no idea what to order. My go to line when going into a place for the first time is "Give me 2 of your most popular dishes!" After asking me a few questions he suggested the Balkan Mix, cevapi, and the cake of the day. He took his time to explain each dish and how they are prepared. I sat and enjoyed a cappuccino while I waited for my takeout order. The cappuccino was excellent! Before leaving he handed me a herbal drink, and a tropical drink to try!Everything was amazing! The meat was seasoned well, the bread was nice and fluffy and the cake was delicious!Thank you for making my very first visit an outstanding experience. I will definitely visit again when I am in the area!

This was my first time eating hear at the Balkan Cafe.My brother has an Eastern European business associate who invited us to join him and he was kind enough to let me tag along.They talked us through the menu and we both chose a version of their take on a hamburger.?I ordered mine spicy and it was excellent. It came out cut into quarters with cooked onions and something I can only describe as a cheesy spread which was phenomenal. We were also given a container of a roasted red pepper spread. It was fantastic.I would definitely put it on my list of new places to go try.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Parking: Easy to get in and out with lots of parking

Checked out this spot in Jacksonville for some Serbian eats, and the cevapi was on point - flavorful and grilled to perfection. The owner is amazing, adding a personal touch to the whole experience. If you're up for a chill vibe and fantastic food, this place is a winner!

If you’ve ever been to Eastern Europe, or have ever wanted to go. This place sets the tone for what a Balkan restaurant is. Family owned, good food, affordable prices, and a an atmosphere where you could spend hours exchanging stories.Stop in. Stay awhile. You won’t regret it.
