We came here by pure chance. Ordered Small Meat Plata(for one person). The food did not take too long to come. But the portion took longer than usual to eat cause it was more like Plata for 2 people. Meat had variety, was tasty, pljeskavica was above other meats in taste department. It had the right mix of tenderness and spices. Service was exceptional. Home atmosphere.

Waitress is delightful. She was kind and helpful. Ordered the house platter for 1 with house wine and mineral. Portions very generous. House wine is excellent. Would definitely return.

Great place but seemed to be understaffed as just one person was at the bar as well as serving all the tables and it was pretty busy
