I was there yesterday with my friend and her mother. Food was really good, my vermouth as you can see the pictures not so much. My glass had 7 bugs in it. I haven’t noticed until I almost finished it, and started taking some of them out of my mouth. Itruined my dinner, and I must say it was one of the grossest things ever. Waiters apologized, but got very defensive andaggravated that we complained. Didn’t do anything for us to make it up for ruined dinner. Big disappointment. I don’t thinkI will ever go there again.

When you're looking for serbian and/or balkan cuisine in Chicago area look no more. Skadarlya is probably the best Serbian restaruant not only in Chicago but I'd say even USA. If you're wondering what Balkan food tastes like just stop by here. Their cevapi in kajmak were amazing but the absolute highlight of the night for us was karadjordjeva schnitzel. If some put a blindfold to me and gave me a piece of these meals to try without knowing where I am I would never guess I'm not in Serbia. It really is that good!

Amazing food, and lots of it. The mixed grill plate was a great way for us to try many foods we hadn't had before. We will definitely be coming back.

I visited this restaurant to celebrate my friend's birthday, and we had an amazing time. The food was fresh and delicious, the drinks were enjoyable, and the atmosphere was relaxed with lovely lighting and ambiance. They provide valet parking and have a private party room available. The restrooms were clean, and there was a nice variety of desserts to choose from. Our server was quick and attentive to our needs. We’re definitely planning to return soon.
