When we came up with the idea to open a Serbian restaurant in Miami Beach, we were set on a couple of things. We wanted to offer our guests a warm and relaxing environment where they can feel at home and we wanted to introduce them to a Balkan cuisine that’s rich not only in flavor, but in tradition as well. We invite you to take a gourmet history tour and discover why are more and more people in Miami Beach falling in love with Serbian food. Spicy and unique dishes like the Mediterranean Pljeskavica, Goulash, and Cevapi will activate all your senses while eating. Of course, a meal is not complete without a glass of our premium Rakija brandy. Just remember to sip and enjoy.
