Restaurant SarajevoAn odd high/low presentationAn odd high/low presentation on some of the items, but the food was overall good to great. Housemade items were especially notable, such as the bread and the soft cheese. The dining room is cozy and romantic with its wood paneling. The service was impeccable. I had a lovely evening out with a friend, where we stuffed ourselves silly and talked for hours.4/13/2013 12:00:00 AMRestaurant Sarajevo is a find,Restaurant Sarajevo is a find, do not let the fact that the outside appearance is that of a small neighborhood restaurant fool you. The interior offers an intimate. timeless ambiance usually reserved for the classic restaurants found along Chestnut, Rush or Ontario Streets. The food is traditional Bosnian, fresh, delicious and portioned well. We had a relaxing lunch (4 hrs) and never felt rushed by the staff. Our waiter was excellent, and offered to make us a mixed platter that was not on the menu, giving each member of our party of 4 the opportunity to taste all of the meat offerings, as well as the fettucine. Capucino's, apple rolls and crepes were a delectable conclusion to a fantastic meal. BYOB retaurant, don't forget the kruskovac!4/11/2013 12:00:00 AMBest food for the dollar.Best food for the dollar. Food is always great. & you always get your monies worth. & more.4/4/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat East European Style DiningThe food was both authentic and divine, the service warm and friendly and the environment inviting.
We had an off-the-menu Mixed Grill for Two, recommended by our waiter, which included the daily special, lamb shank. Every item reminded me of being back in the "Motherland". Chicago ethnic food at its best. We'll be going back again soon to this lovely little spot on something of a "restaurant island" in Chicago.
NOTE: This is a BYOB only establishment. There is a liquor store across the street and 1.5 blocks west, if needed.3/24/2013 12:00:00 AM
