Was Dario Swaniawski at Kafana a mag?
I had never had Serbian food. The waiter recommended a number of items. They were all excellent and the portions were the perfect size. We sat outside so the noise was from the street rather than in the restaurant itself. Be aware they only take cash! View all feedback.

What Sherman Predovic dislikes about Kafana:
Most of our night went without service. We waited long intervals for help and when it finally arrived we were refused another glass of wine because there was another reservation but they never visited our table to ask if we needed anything. Overall poor service. Will not be returning. View all feedback.
