The hidden Balkan gem of the burbs. I can honestly say one of the top two best places to get cevapi. Their burek selection is 5 stars Sirnica/Burek (meat)/ Zeljanica/ krompirusa The Shopska salad is one of my wife's favorites Don't forget dessert ( Baklava hits hard) The ambience really takes you back To BIH Service is very friendly Hidden but worth it when you find it. read more

After landing in Chicago, I headed straight to this restaurant for a cevapi meal. Cevapi is grilled sausages with raw onion, ajvar (eggplant relish) and kajmuk (clotted cream) on the side. The meat sausages are placed between two pieces of lepinja (grilled bread). Their lepinja is outstanding here! I also ordered a Slovenian coca-cola (Cocktail) with my meal. This meal was a great start for what would be a fantastic weekend in Chicago! The Uber driver who picked me up (drove to my hotel) wondered how I wound up at this place from Chicago OHare International Airport. Staff is friendly and accommodating here. I passed on Bosnian coffee. The waitress told me, "next time." I thought this was cute. Bosnian people are very welcoming and accommodating. The price of my meal with drink was very reasonable. I'm also happy to see that this place survived the Covid shutdown. Interior is clean here as well. No dirty tables or chairs. There was a television in the upper corner of the dining room broadcasting a soccer match. Lovely to see this. This place is located in a small strip mall. It was also nice to see a steady flow of Bosnians entering and leaving the restaurant. I would love to dine here again if I ever return to Chicago. The menu also features various other Bosnia dishes. I recommend trying their burek. If you've never had Bosnian Food I recommend trying this place. You will be in for a real treat! Hope you enjoy! read more

Awesome food, great service. Very traditional Bosnian cuisine, exactly what you'd get in Bosnia. The owner is such a sweet lady and runs a tight ship. Interior is picturesque and makes you feel like you're in Europe. Definitely worth it. Will come back read more

My better half and I decided to try a new place. Bosnia Grill had good reviews so we decided to stop by. We were treated a very nice woman who I suspect is one of the owners. She was nice and very helpful explaining what the items were on the menu! There were so many sausages and pies (potato pies, meat pies, etc) on the menu. We got a potato pie and meat platter. The meat platter had many different savory sausages and their home made sour cream dipping sauce. Each type of sausage was absolutely amazing and true to the foods regional influences such as Austria and Turkey!!!! Absolutely delicious. The potato pie was amazing as well. The filling was good, but the crust is huge and done perfectly. It's soft in the inside of flaky on the outside. Under the sausages were wrinkled fries that have been soaking in the sausages' juices and were incredible. We didn't try the deserts in the fridge, but they looked authentic and delicious! We were very happy to stumble into this place! The service was friendly and fast. The dining room was clean. And the food was absolutely delicious! The price point wasn't bad at all either! This place is worth the trip and we will be back. ' read more

This place is so good. The food is fresh and great quality. The owners are wonderful people and their service cannot be beat! They have high standards for cleanliness. I highly recommend the Cevape and the stuffed burger plate. I also love their cheese and potato Burek. I urge you to give this place a try for the best authentic Bosnian food! read more

Small area to sit, come early in case you need to wait. Food is absolutely amazing, reminds me of my Grandfather's cooking .

Besides the space which is decorated in ethno- style and really looks interesting, I have to mention the food and to praise it. We took a mixed meat (even it says it is for 1 person, it is actually enough for 2) and it was good. The waitress was extremely kind and the food arrived fast. Would recommend! read more

Food and service was great. Staff there are friendly, very clean restaurant. Plenty of parking available.

Everything was super authentic and really delicious. I tried a few things very typical in Bosnia (Salty milk, Burek meat pie, Grilled meat platter). Although, the Kajmak cheese spread was really light in flavor, I typically prefer a stronger flavor. The space is really small with only a few tables available and their drinks only come in bottles/cans. I heard they do take reservations, so this could be an option if you want to guarantee a table. Other than that, super cute place. I'm definitely coming back here. read more

100% yummy. Their pitas (savory phyllo stuffed pies) and Cevape (meat links similar to ground meat kebabs) are phenomenal and the somuns (bread) are out of this world. Staff is super nice. Not a fancy place to eat but definitely worth it for the food and prices are reasonable. Also, though it says no Apple Pay, they do have it; it's how I pay for my meals there. read more

Best ćevapi I've had in the burbs. My sister has been raving about this place. It is truly a hidden gem. Dont I'm get thrown off by the fact that it's located in a small strip mall. This family run restaurant has some great Balkan dishes. And the people who work here are so nice and friendly! I would definitely drive out of my way to come eat here again! Recommendations: -ćevapi -sopska salata -kupus salata Must finish your meal with a "turska kava" You won't be disappointed! read more

Friendly staff and tasty food couldn't be more better beautifully decorated inside cevapi are my fav with good lepina (bread) steamed reminds me of cevapi back home always fresh . You can also order just for pick up or eat inside. read more

This place has fantastic food. I got the chivapi and a chees pita. The bread was hot fresh and delicious. The meat was well seasoned and flavorful. And the cheese pita was crusty yummy cheese filled goodness. Everything was Togo, but it was still hot when I got home 20 minutes after I picked it up. The staff was nice, friendly, and gave me prompt service. Give this place a try, you will be glad you did. I'm going back soon, I hope to see you up there. read more

Bosna Grill has delicious food and a beautiful restaurant atmosphere. Their cevapi and burek were both incredible, especially the cevapi! I would strongly recommend this restaurant to anyone who loves Bosnian food or wants to try it! Staff was friendly and it was a great experience. Very close to the O'Hare airport as well. read more

First time in a Bosnian Restaurant; extremely satisfied. I will bring my family next time and try different dishes.

Amazing Food! The food my wife and I had were Cevape and it was cooked to perfection. As well as the pita bread was nicely moist like it should be since the first time I ate dish all the way back in 1998 in Bosnia. I'm super happy to have a restaurant who knows what they are doing and well close to my house and not having to go to the city. The other dishes haven't ever disappointed so that's why I love coming here. Anytime I'm craving something different this place hits the spot. read more

Bosna Grill - Cevape - beef sausages with pita bread and a nice sour cream texture to dip your sausages in and some tomato and onions in the side. - Modern European Near Me - Des Plaines, Illinois

My favorite cevape when I'm not cooking them at home! Although it may not look like anything special on the outside, the food is worth coming for! Small place, people were waiting for seats. The service was excellent, the woman in the front taking orders was very friendly and accommodating. We both ordered cevape which was a very generous portion of 10 pieces each. The meat was fresh and perfectly seasoned. ait came with onions, ajvar (vegetable spread), and lepinja (delicious bread). We also ordered a šopska salata which was also tasty. Don't be discouraged if you are not European!! (There were many other cultures there and the workers speak English). read more

I'll preface by mentioning if you like spicy foods you will find most "Yugoslavian" fare to be bland. For this reason I had never checked them out but being that we were in the area and my Bosnian friend was pushing the agenda, we stopped in for a quick lunch. Per their menu and per my friend's explanation, Bosnian food is about experiencing the food for what it is. You experience the food for the natural flavors that come from them. Take a look at a few of the photos posted here on Yelp. Their Cevapcici ("chevapi") meal is basic. A moist, spongy like bread served with a top and bottom. (This bread begs to be dipped but I haven't seen any sauces or dips to speak of) Sausages rolled and look like a plumper version of "brown and serve" sausages. On the side, a serving of a creamy cheese and a wedge of onion cut with pieces the length of your finger. You pull some bread and dip it in cheese, take a bite of the sausage with onion. My friend looks at me and says "whoa, the onion is so spicy buddy" and there's your spice. He bought a few "pies" for his children and mentioned that he often buys these for them, when he's nearby. He's tried the same in Skokie, but the taste wasn't as good. The pictures section contains a copy of their current menu. It's limited and pricing is perfect for the type of food. If trying this for the first time, it's good to get an entree and then order a pie for sharing. Cheese, meat, spinach, it's all good and only $5 dollars each. Think fresh baked pastry, moist and easy to pull apart and enjoy. I've had a meat pie with a side of onion slices and felt satisfied. Lunch for two will not break the bank and as my buddy says "better for you buddy, than eating fast food." Since our first lunch here about a three weeks ago today, I've been back three times. I like the simple quality to it, the inexpensive pricing and I love bread. Oh and they offer European drinks. There's this cola like drink called "Cockta", it's like cola and root beer. Interesting flavor. Try it. As mentioned by another, it's a hole in the wall kind of place. Basic, if you aren't looking for the small yellow sign, you'll drive by without notice. read more

Bosna Grill - THE BEST CEVAPI - Modern European Near Me - Des Plaines, Illinois

We haven't tried anything else here yet, but I've gotta say....the chevapi deserves a whopping 5 stars!!! We fell in love with cevapi at another restaurant that used to be open in the Wheaton area, but closed down. We have been on the prowl for a replacement and lo and behold, we came across Bosna Grill on yelp and gave it a shot... The restaurant is easy to miss on some little strip mall next to some apartment residences. A small yellow sign with simple black writing hangs over the restaurant. Inside is hole-in-the-wall in a good sense....small, cozy, and very clean. First sign that I knew it would be legit is that on a Saturday afternoon, it was filled with Bosnian families....check! Ordered the cevapi and grabbed a table....food came shortly...HUGE portions. Husband and I ordered a cevapi each....$7 each...great deal! Comes with creamy homemade white cheese spread and some onions to eat with the bread. The Bosnian bread is definitely superior to other cevapi I have had...outside is crisp....inside is soft, fluffy, slightly chewy, and soaked with the yummy meat juices from the sausages. Lift up that top piece of bread and there is a waft of steaming deliciousness. Sausages are tender and nicely spiced...tasty! My husband and I both didn't finish our portions and packed it up to go. YUM! Definitely will be a repeat visit! read more

Bosna Grill - Cevapi... Huge portions and sssssoooooo gooood - Modern European Near Me - Des Plaines, Illinois

I ordered the zeljanica pita...Well actually I ordered wrong (said sirnica), but mentioned the one with spinach in it and the nice lady behind the counter figured out which one I meant. It was absolutely delicious. For desert, I ordered a Russian Hat with a Turkish Coffee and couldn't have been more pleased. If I didn't live four hours away I would visiting Bosna Grill on a regular basis. This weary traveler appreciated the good food and friendly atmosphere. Hvala. read more

Bosna Grill - Modern European Near Me - Des Plaines, Illinois

Bosna Grill gets back to basics. This is an authentic Bosnian grill. Naturally, I went with the Bosnian style chevapi. It was served on the most perfectly meat soaked and grilled lepinja bread that I've had in the US. Don't know how they do it, but it stays moist in the middle and gets crispy on the edges. It's a work of art. Contrary to popular belief, Bosnian food isn't just chevapi. You can also get sudzukice, pljeskavica (similar to a hamburger), stuffed pljeskavica, chicken, the four most popular types of burek/pita: cheese, meat, greens or potato, your choice of four different salads (I recommend the shopska) or the "diet" chevapi platter which has five sausages, French fries and vegetables. If you didn't know to look for this place you'll easily pass it up. The inside of the restaurant isn't much to look at either, but it is clean. That's all I care about. The decor may be humble and downplayed, but the food is not. And you probably won't even notice the bluish-pink walls and generic flower art with your face shoved into your meal. read more
