Tasty Bosnian food. Good option in the neighborhood. (Before they became hungry for more money with a little to offer)

Edit (06/16/2021) : I have been a huge fan of them but in time their portions gotten smaller and price gotten more expensive. Lost their authenticity. Don’t recommend anymore.

My experience was good the 1st time but the 2nd time not so much and I make my observation of the rice since it was not of the day, very dry and tasteless, I found the presentation of the gyro over rice and the cucumber salad very unpleasant fresh, sorry but I won't go back there. If I would recommend Cevapi

This small is hole in the wall is gem! The salad was fresh, the chicken moist and the French fries crispy. I think we found a new neighborhood spot!

This place is clean and tasty. I came with low expectations and left blown away by the quality of food and service. Please keep it up. Will be coming soon.

Used to be good. Now they keep charging me more and giving me 1/2 the food as usual. Really going downhill, do not recommend. Ingredients are missing regularly.

The food is excellent but I’m giving them three stars because the lady there I don’t know who she is she’s the owner or manager she’s very very rude

The place doesn’t even come close to balkan food, and the staff is rude and inflexible on how they serve it (I’ll explain what I mean in a minute).
Now, mind you, I always order delivery, never been to the place actually.
First of, cevapi is never served as a sandwich anywhere in balkans, at least not in any reputable place. It’s served on the bread, with ajvar and kajmak on the side, and it’s meant to be taken apart and eaten one cevap at the time. This place just slathers all the sauces on the bread, slaps some salad with tomatoes on it (never have I ever, EVER, seen a salad served with cevapi in the balkans, but okay, it’s their interpretation, I guess), and everything is soggy and mushy by the time it arrives.
So I decided to remedy that, and wrote instructions that I don’t want any lettuce, and that I would like ajvar on the side. Mind you, I’ve done this multiple times, and only once or twice did they actually do it. So I knew it’s possible, if staff just would care enough.
This last time, which will be the last time ordering from them, once again they just slapped everything together and shipped it. Came soggy, disgusting. Called the place, told them what I asked for. The person that answered the phone was incredibly rude, kept saying “no, no, it’s not possible, we can’t do it like that, it’s a sandwich”. Why someone couldn’t take all the ingredients and pack them separately, is beyond me. Why a staff member, in service industry, would refuse to budge even a bit and just repeatedly say no, is even more beyond me. But most importantly, someone who is not even remotely from the countries from which this food originated (I asked, he was not) trying to tell somebody who grew up in Croatia how cevapi is supposed to be served, and make it sound like I was an idiot and wrong, is an epic fail. Stick to Djerdan and Sarajevo in Astoria, they know how to serve real cevapi, with real balkan hospitality.
Tl;Dr: bad food, worse service. Stay away if taste of balkans is what you are looking for.

I eat here a lot since I work right next to it. I love how their service is always fantastic and they keep the place well organized all the time. Prices are convenient and they serve sizeable portions.

Excellent place to get some food when in a hurry. Their service is swift, pricing is fair, great mood. Would recommend to others

It’s a really small but cozy place, excellent for pick up, everything seems really fresh, I ordered a chicken over rice and the cook grilled it on the spot. The have a nice variety of food and different flavors that I’ve seen in the neighborhood. The flavor was really goood. And the portion was quite small but good anyways

Amazing, fresh food and fast service. The pljeskavica (pita bread burger) fills you up for a good few hours. The čevapi are really good too. The place is super tiny and seating is limited but if you're looking for quality take out, this is the place to go.

Very well organised and welcoming spot. They offer big meals and for reasonable prices. I loved the menu a lot and the staff were very welcoming and informative. I recommend this place.
