Cafe Beograd — among the best cafe in Avondale. Unpretentious and comfortable, exactly what you want. The kitchen takes tradition seriously. Well-priced. Vladimir Vukanić: "We tried thechevapchici, and they were some of the best I’ve had—juicy, flavorful, and perfectly grilled"

“The food was delicious and unique - I’ve never had Serbian food before but it reminded me a bit of Greek food with a twist”
Not sure where to start...paid $20 for a burger and bun with no toppings and had to pay an extra $5.50 for side of fries and $4 for side of kaymak (cream spread).
“Fantastic Serbian cuisine.”
Fantastic Serbian cuisine! The decor feels like an old Serbian farmhouse. The food is some of the best I've had. Our servers were friendly and attentive. There's even a small market attached if you want European specialties to take home.

“Great place for an authentic European (Serbian) food experience.”
Great place for an authentic European (Serbian) food experience. We enjoyed the Mixed Sampler Plate with various delicious meats, was a generous portion with fresh bread. And the Cheese Burek-Pie & cabbage salad were delish too! We received wonderful service from Valentina. Highly recommended place 👍

Man if you’re balkan and you want to feel/eat like at home, this is the place to eat! (I’m Romanian). Even if you’re not Balkan, come and try you will love it!

“All the food was really good.”
All the food was really good! I especially liked the burek, but I also tried a sandwich and omelette. We also liked our food so much that we ended up having a post breakfast dessert. Be prepared to wait for the burek, but when it comes out, it's crispy and hot on the inside and out. 😋

“Amazing food, very good authentic taste of Serbian food.”
Amazing food, very good authentic taste of Serbian food. Atmosphere relaxed and welcoming. They have restaurant and store right next to it where you can buy Serbian product like snacks, cakes, drinks,…

“Had never tried Serbian food before and found what we got to be very tasty and have generous portions.”
Had never tried Serbian food before and found what we got to be very tasty and have generous portions. Staff were friendly and quick to get out orders in, but be prepared for a bit of a wait on cook times which are noted on the menu. The wait though for freshly made dishes is absolutely worth it though.

“The absolute best balkan place ever period.”
The absolute best balkan place ever period! We came with the kids here and were greeted very nicely. Food was super authentic Serbian aka balkan. Atmosphere was on point too. There was European people from everywhere here including some Americans. The Grocery store had it all. Definitely highly recommend

“Casual and comforting Serbian fare with friendly and laid-back vibes.”
Casual and comforting Serbian fare with friendly and laid-back vibes. We ordered the Beograd Extra Special platter - a true meat lover’s feast! Highlights included the chevapchichi (especially the ones wrapped in dates), pork sausages, and ham, all very well-seasoned and satisfying. We also added two bureks, which were flaky, buttery, and totally hit the spot. Super hearty meal all around.

“If you are from the Balkans or not this is a must visit spot.”
If you are from the Balkans or not this is a must visit spot. Friendly inviting environment and the food is off the charts good. My recommendation: - Rakija (any of them) - Burek with homemade yogurt - ajvar - qebabskis - coffee - any of the deserts Can’t wait to come back

“It has been 10 years since I come here and this place is amazing.”
It has been 10 years since I come here and this place is amazing. Food is great. My favorites are: BUREK with cheese, Sarma, Summer salad, BeoBurger etc Cakes are delicious too. During summer you may enjoy their patio outside, try Turkish coffee and enjoy your morning. I would highly recommend it for large parties too! Their service is the best.

Stopped into Cafe Beograd looking for something new. I was pleasantly surprised by how quick the service was as well all the food! I ordered the Mixed Plate Sampler! Everything was perfectly cooked, juicy, and had a nice grill taste to it. Will be back for more!
