Very authentic Balkan food. I’ve been coming here as a kid and it’s never dipped in quality! The drink selection is awesome Meal type: Dinner Food: 5
I've enjoyed Ukus for over 15 years, but feel like the meal we enjoyed from there yesterday was a new peak food experience. Now that tomatoes and cucumbers are getting really good, their salad, Ukus Salata, is genuinely my favorite in Astoria, with delicious Bulagarian feta and a sensational vinaigrette dressing. They threw in a free bread, which reminded me how spectacular their pita-like bread is. The meat-lover really loved their juicy, flavorful chicken skewers and the meat burek. I will say that their spinach and cheese burek is one of the greatest dishes in New York. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
The burek at this restaurant is amazing! I loved the spinach and feta fillings. It was made to order and delicious.
"The burek was delicious, the yogurt and sweets were also very good. However, the pasul or beans plate was disappointing as it barely had any beans. I feel that the $18 price for a plate with minimal beans is overpriced. I recommend adding more beans to the pot when boiling them. I suggest making a goulash to add to the beans instead of dry meat. Fresh meat goulash would complement the beans plate perfectly."
