We're from South Louisiana and accustomed to great food. Never experienced Balkan cuisine and it was delicious. We recommend all US visitors to Iceland to give them try. Won't be disappointed.
Really good and tasty food. Well seasoned and nicely served apart from the plastic plates and bowls that's a down side in food courts these days. Especially when those bowls are from recycled black plastic, just the worst and there is no number what kind of plastic it is. Shame on you EU for allowing this. Service is with the smile and very professional. Worth visiting.
I came here to chill a little with my friends and started talking to the guy there. He was really friendly and let us try the gyros which were really good and the portion was large. The best part is that he let me get the whole thing for free. Good atmosphere and good people. Perfect place to eat at. 5/5
Really nice Balkan restaurant. They have wonderful dish of the day menus which comes with a soup, and also great lunch specials. The food is fresh, flavorful, and with generous portions. The owner and staff are very friendly and kind. I highly recommend this establishment.
