While the surrounding…read moreroad is currently under construction, getting in is a breeze with accessible entrances at both the front and the back. Parking is wonderfully convenient thanks to the dedicated parking lot and garage located directly behind the building. The standout feature of this establishment is its incredible dedication to gluten-free diners. Not only does the menu clearly mark all gluten-free items, but it extends this care to drinks as well--something I have rarely seen outside of beer selections. To start, I ordered the Burlington sunrise cocktail, and it was exceptionally good. The menu also explicitly notes that all gluten-free items are prepared separately, providing immense peace of mind. My dad and I shared the cheese curd pull-apart appetizer, which was delicious, complemented by ranch dressing that was quite fantastic. For my main course, I ordered the BLT on gluten-free bread accompanied by fries. Although it initially arrived with onion rings by mistake, the staff quickly remedied the error and brought out a fresh side of fries, made easy by their dedicated fryers. My dad ordered the sausage, and everyone at the table agreed that the food was fantastic. The service matched the quality of the food. When I mentioned my celiac diagnosis to our server, she responded immediately with an reassuring and confident "no problem." To top off a wonderful evening, we discovered they host a trivia night, part of a rotating schedule detailed on a special activities menu showcasing the fun events they offer every night of the week.

I got a latte and the smashed avocado toast with a poached egg. It came with a side salad. It was all VERY good. The toast was perfection - can't believe it was gluten-free. I highly recommend any of their items - you won't be disappointed.

BLUF: Dine-in prices and take-out only! Gluten Free…read more Food (1/5): The lemon poppyseed donut was their only redeeming item. The spicy chicken sandwich $21 was extremely soggy and chewy, and their "spicy" part is just hot sauce. It had no flavor. It was such a disappointment. And the "side salad" wow. ok. drowned in vinaigrette. The Wheat's End Skillet $22 was mid. Not spicy, bread wasn't good, and their veggies were mush. Service (1/5): There was a guy and a girl working and the girl was on coffee duty, while the guy was just taking orders and talking about lotion and soft hands. It was so weird. Ambiance (2/5): At least there's like 3 seats to sit on while you wait for your food. Other than that, it's just an "order, wait 25 mins, and take your soggy food home" place. They are a gluten free place too. Everything is put into Styrofoam take-out boxes. The prices are dine-in prices for soggy, flavorless food. I understand gluten free ingredients are expensive, but $22 for a skillet where 3 (eggs, bacon, and veggies) out of the 4 items (eggs, bacon, veggies, and bread) are already naturally gluten free is disappointing. I felt ripped off. @meni - Thanks for the comment! Cute business name! ;)

The soup was okay not worth driving miles. I'd say the soup was VERY bland. Just okay. Amy's is off the my list not returning. Expensive considering the portion size.

My 3 friends, one a professional chef, and I finally made reservations for this place after years…read moreof trying to figure out a time to come. We live over an hour away. We preordered the beef burek and then ordered a selection of other menu items family style to get a taste of everything we could (goulash, raznjci, chevapchici, Wiener schnitzel) Portions were perfect and the food delicious. Our server, Bryak, although newer, was outstanding and the other staff fantastic too. They are passionate about their food and the history of the place. Brando, one of the owners, stopped by our table and gave us a brief history of the building and restaurant. It was originally a Schlitz brewery, and the decor is a nod to the original purpose of the building. The recipes are over 6 generations old from their family in Serbia and have been unchanged - because don't fix what isn't broken. It's true comfort food. We will definitely be back for the roast suckling pig, the goose, grape leaves and chicken livers. Note these items will all take time so preorder or be prepared to wait an hour. Other dishes are less time so doing it in courses give you ample time. They also have a selection of Serbian beers and other beverages. Their family used to be a wholesaler and importer of Serbian beers and liquor into Milwaukee. Wonderful gem in our city!

I did not like the food here, but that should not dissuade you. It just wasn't appealing to me…read morepersonally. I'll give you the best advice right up front: order the burek. They tell you on the menu that it will take an hour to prepare. Do NOT do what we did at my table and select something else. Our food took an hour to arrive ANYWAY. Wish I had the burek, because my chicken was disappointing. They give you five little slices of rye bread (for four people) and one pad of whipped butter while you're waiting. The appetizer came out 20 minutes later. The restaurant was a neat tribute to times gone by. The restauranteur revitalized a former Schlitz tavern, and preserved the Shlitz branding. You'll see the Schlitz globe on the spire of the building's exterior, and inside you'll see an oversized, cool ,retro Schlitz pendant light fixture. The tabletops are old school retro Formica, complete with metal edging. There was a large painting on masonite next to our table. The vibe is something I can appreciate. The service was warm, charming, and patient. The server offered recommendations, and told us a little bit about each dish. One of the kitchen staff came out to greet us and see how we felt about our meals. The food. Okay, again, it was just not my thing. For an appetizer we had the stuffed grape leaves--I've eaten these many times in my life. These were as good as any, and one of my favorite things to eat in a Serbian restaurant. We each had something different--one of us had eggplant, another stuffed, peppers, another the goulash, and I had chicken breasts in paprika sauce with a small side of rice. Everything is stuffed with rice. Everything. Everyone seemed to enjoy their food enough. I came in starved, having not eaten anything all day, and it was after 8 when our food came out. I was not a fan of my chicken dish--chicken prepared with the bones in -AND- the skin on (it seemed slimy to me). It was that sliding-off-the-bone slimy, that most people describe as "juicy." The flavor was onion-y and something that my palate processed as sour--and I tasted this all evening. This is not a dis to the restaurant. I think if you like this type of food, you can enjoy a good meal here. Dishes were about $28 on average. At that price point, I'd rather enjoy something else. Give it a shot. The service was impeccable.
