Kafana

A long time ago, I chose this restaurant for lunch with a friend. I remember the delicious, unique Serbian dishes. Yesterday, I suggested to my husband that we go to Kafana. I made a reservation, and we went there for dinner. My order was: Karadjordjeva, Cevapi, Dimljena vesalica, and Rolovane dive alive and dzigerica. All the dishes were delicious. The portions were quite large. I also ordered a glass of Yellow Muscat dessert wine on the recommendation of our waiter. It was very tasty and aromatic. The restaurant has a very cozy, homey, and welcoming atmosphere. The interior is seemingly simple, but it gives the restaurant an ethnic feel. The service was also very good. It felt like we were visiting hospitable hosts rather than going to a restaurant. I would also like to point out that th

We were lucky they had a table for us on such short notice, i would definitely recommand making a reservation as the restaurant is kinda small and seems really popular ! The food was just insanely good! We had braised lamb shank, braised pork shoulder, traditional minced meats, sausages, etc. I would really recommend to order many dishes and share with friends as you can taste so much more :-) Would definitely go back on my next NYC visit ! (They only accept cash)

Incredible Dining experience. The service made you feel you were in your extended family’s kitchen. The food especially the lamb shank was amazing. I am definitely going to come back here. Keep in mind, it is a cash only restaurant.

First time trying Serbian and I loved this place! It's quite small and intimate and gives family dinner room vibes. Highly recommended!

(4.5/5) - CASH ONLY Balkan restaurant with a great vibe! By far the best seating is indoors. Try to call / reserve. The meat platter is the best thing to get. Grilled veg is great. Bread appetizer that comes free with the red pepper spread (Ajvar ) is fantastic. As someone who grew up around this food, some of it is good, not all of it wowed me, but it’s pretty solid. Great to switch up and try new things! Lovely staff. I liked the salads, cheese mezze and the meat mains.
