My family is from Eastern Europe, and Bosna Restaurant has been a staple for us for years. The market is where my mom still gets authentic Eastern European ingredients for any meal we make. Now that I'm in the city full-time, I go to Bosna whenever I'm feeling homesick and need some comfort food. When my family visits, we also love shopping at their market right next door. A couple of recommendations: the cheese pita (my favorite food ever!) and their cevapi. Cevapi is a classic Eastern European dish and definitely worth a try! read more

Great dinner and wine! A real Balkan experience we love the meat combo family-style dinner. read more

Great place for family gathering with amazing food and service! Restaurant is very spacious, they do lots of events too. Love their bread - lepinja it's soft and pillowy, it comes with their grilled meals or you can order it as a side too. Definitely try an appetizer or smoked beef, sausage, pickles and delightful creamy feta like cheese. Their traditional beef grilled sausage cevapi are amazing, they come in few different sizes 5,10 & 15 or with garden salad as I had it. read more

I had been wanting to try Bosna Restaurant again for a looooong time since it had been at least 5 years since I had been here and finally had the chance to with some friends. The food was great and I had a great experience. This is definitely a versatile place since you could come to hang out with the boys watching sports together, grab a quick bite to go, or have a nice dinner. The Bosnian coffee was a great way to start while waiting for the food. I ordered the lamb chops and sarma. Both of my friends enjoyed philly cheesesteak sandwiches. All of the dishes were flavorfully seasoned and cooked well. For dessert I had the tufahija apple dessert since it was the only gluten free dessert option. For how simple that dessert was it was surprisingly good. It was cooked apple stuffed with walnuts and garnished with whipped cream, chocolate syrup, and the syrup that it was cooked in as well. The apple still had a bit of crisp texture which I enjoyed. Throughout our meal the staff checked on us to make sure everything was going well. I'll 100% come here again since I'd like my friends to try some of the grilled meats next time. read more

Nice restaurant with food from Mediterranean region. Good food, service and ambient. Will recommend to a friend.

Two of my best friends are Eastern European. One is Romanian and the other is Serbian. Through the years I've had some really delicious food from parties and get togethers with their families. Bosna Restaurant has always been in my "RestaurWANT to Try" collection. I'm grateful I finally got the chance to try them. They're located in a strip mall so there is a lot of free parking available. When we went it was a two man show so the service and food took a little bit. I ordered my favorite dishes I've had at my friend's place. First of all, it was so much food I had to take it home. Second, I should've ordered something different because I think I was longing for specific recipes. They were still pretty good. I wish the sarma wasn't as salty though. The cevapi came with warm bread and the sauce was perfection (like ones I've had in the past). This was a 3.5 star experience for me. My boyfriend got a coffee and philly cheesesteak. He liked trying both. I loved that everything felt fresh. This is a lovely comfort food space. read more

Had the lamb chops. Really good food and excellent service. Great place to watch a game too. We went with a group to watch the World Cup.

Delicious. We got coffee, a really soothing bean soup, some fresh bread and a cabbage salad. All the flavors were well balanced and the service was great. read more

Bosna Restaurant - Legenda je tu, pravi Bosanac drži stvar pod kontrolom. Kako znam da je pravi Bosanac? Ima porciju od 15 ćevapa. Sve halal, naravno! - Modern European Near Me - Richmond, Virginia

Great food and service in a style that is hard to find. The Sara was excellent as was the fresh baked bread.

Great family owned restaurant by 2 brothers that also has a small grocery store right next to it with south Eastern European goods.

Great Bosnian sausage and nice gift store next to it. Not any more to add. ********************

In the same way walking into the bright dining room is a shocking contrast to Bosna's dark exterior, the hearty deliciousness of Bosnia's food stands out against the minimalist decor. The grilled meat cevapi is perfectly seasoned and the crisp, fresh onion adds a contrasting crunch. The rich, meaty, savory goulash pairs nicely with the simple mashed potatoes. The sweet honey and tart lemon add tongue-teasing interest to the shortbread cookie. A meal at Bosnia is not complete without Bosnian coffee. If your ideal coffee is a light-roast, vanilla iced latte, this is not the coffee for you. Bosnian coffee is strong, bold, unfiltered and served (in a beautiful set) with only sugar. Cevapi $8 Grilled dish of minced beef in finger-sized sausages served in lepinja bread with onion, ajar and sour cream Goulash-Halal $15 Beef Stew served with mashed potatoes and Lepinja bread Hurmasica $3.50 Sweet Bosnian Shortbread cookie covered in sweet honey and lemon syrup Bosnian Coffee $3 read more

The food was great! I was very impressed with my coffee and dessert (Harmasica)! The Cevapi was delicious, the taste of the bread was awesome. The facility was clean and staff was prompt. I would recommend you check this gem out! I was reminded of my trip to Croatia, very authentic food! 10/10 read more

I stopped by because both IZET and Sabit used to work for me 25 years ago. They were hard workers back then just coming from Bosnia. IZET came to me one morning and asked"I need you to hire my brother, TOMORROW. I did and his entire family, brother and father were dedicated workers. Their restaurant and market are doing well and deserve your support. The spinach pie is delicious. Thank you. read more

I'm a huge fan of Bosna! Note that this business has 2 parts in the Fountain Square plaza - the market is to the right, and the restaurant is to your left. The hubs and I walked into the market first, and we chekced out their offerings - they had various jams and spreads, chocolates and candies, pickled items, dishware, and other specialty items. We walked over to the restaurant and ordered a carryout: a 5-piece cevapi (skinless ground beef sausages, served with lepinja bread (a traditional flat bread from the Balkans), sliced onions, ajvar (a red pepper spread), and sour cream), a spinach burek, and a meat burek. Everything was made-to-order and they were super delicious! Both the bureks were of a generous slice, which could easily be split into 2 snacks - the pastries were flaky and the filling was bountiful. The star of the show was definitely the cevapi - I've had these at other restaurants, and they just do not come close to Bosna's! The sausages were SO juicy, had a nice little char to them from the grill, and very flavorful! The combination of the spices that were used made this such a savory meal! The lepinja was slightly toasted and fresh, and smearing some of that ajvar and the sour cream made this so tasty! The staff at both places were just so welcoming, kind, and friendly! The restaurant had plenty of seating inside as well as some tables outside for an al fresco dining. I'd love to return to try out the rest of their menu - what a gem Henrico has! +delicious cevapis! +fresh and yummy lepinja +generous slices of bureks +super welcoming and friendly staff +located in Fountain Square +plenty of parking in plaza lot read more

my experience at the Bosnian restaurant today. It was truly a fantastic experience! My family and I have a deep appreciation for trying out different foods and cultures. When we made a trip to Eastern Europe a few years ago, we were captivated by the food and culture - and this Bosnian restaurant brought back all these wonderful memories. From their helpful staff who explained each dish in depth to the delicious food, it was an absolute delight. The standout dish for us was the Cevapi. If you're a coffee enthusiast, I would also suggest you try their coffee - it's splendid. I can assuredly say that today's food was even better than what we experienced in Eastern Europe. In summary, it was a great experience and I would highly recommend it to anyone seeking to try European and Bosnian cuisine. read more

Bosna Restaurant - Meat platter for the Fam! - Modern European Near Me - Richmond, Virginia

I love the food here. I've gotten takeout for lunch twice. The first time I got cevapi (spiced ground meat kebabs), lepanja bread (a super fluffy round bread, pita sized but no pocket), ajvar (a yummy pepper relish) and pickled peppers (little pickled peppers stuffed with sauerkraut). Everything was delicious. I spent about 30$ but the food was so good I went back again. I got chicken jager (a chicken breast with a creamy mushroom sauce), more of the awesome bread, and a pepper and tomato salad (shopska salata). I still spent about 30$ but I got two meals out of that because the portions were huge. It's a little pricey for takeout, but delicious and worth it. I will be back again to try more Bosnian delicacies! Yum, yum! read more

Had an amazing meal here. The starter bread was hot and fluffy off the grill. Combination sausage dinner with the cow cheese was the perfect beer food. My wife loved the rich goulash with a mound of seasoned mashed potatoes and a loaf of bread, perfect comfort food. Everything was delicious and the service was on point. Can't wait to explore the menu more. read more

Great atmosphere and excellent service. Awesome food. Got the house combo with cevapi and sausage. The bread was warm and wonderful. I will be back to try more. read more

Bosna Restaurant - House combination with cevapi and sausage - Modern European Near Me - Richmond, Virginia

We had a delicious meal at Bosna the other night! The meat and cheese appetizer plate has wonderful salty-smoked meat, sausage, and a salty-creamy cheese that was irresistible. For entrees, we really enjoyed the cevapi, stuffed cabbage, and veal schnitzel. We were less-delighted with the spinach pie, the filo dough of which was a little tough and the filling not that special. For dessert, we had the baklava and the hurmasica, of which the hurmasica was the favorite. The Bosnian beers, light and dark, were both great. The service was very friendly and prompt. Go here and let's keep them in business! read more

Love the food here! So so good always. Atmosphere is sometimes weird when its empty but the food always is awesome

My son had a karate test across the street, so we decided to give Bosna a try. Located in your typical Richmond strip mall, Bosna is humble in its bones, from its exterior to the no frills interior. The owner was a very pleasant man and an incredible human being. More on this shortly. Being of Hungarian heritage, I was torn between the goulash and stuffed cabbage, but ultimately selected the stuffed cabbage when I learned that they did not serve spaetzles with the the goulash. My wife settled on the cevapi. The stuffed cabbage was good, but very different from that served in Hungarian restaurants or my grandma's table. While the cabbage and filling was the same, it was the sauce that differed, with the Hungarian version having a sweeter, more tomato based sauce, whereas this rendition had tomatoes in it, but seemed to have been based more in sauerkraut juice. As for my wife's dish, it was breakfast sized sausages served inside a pita type bread, some sliced onions and two dipping sauces. The sausages had good flavor and we had plenty to take home. Ratings 3 stars for ambiance. Very casual establishment. Great for lunch. 3 stars for food. Nothing remarkable here. Solid food, with a reasonable portion at a reasonable price. 5 stars for the people. My son told me upon entering there was a sign on the front door that said if you don't have money, they'd feed you and that you would pay when you had the money. I said that's nice honey, until I was exiting. Went up to pay the bill. Start to pull out the credit card, when he mentions that the thunderstorms of the night before had knocked out their system. I looked in my wallet and had no where close to enough to cover the cost. He then said, no problem, you can pay the next time you come in. I honestly hadn't heard those words since my youth in Cleveland, living in a Hungarian neighborhood! Fortunately, my wife had some money and we were able to pay. This display of humanity alone made Bosna worth the 5 stars! and more! We won't be coming back weekly, but this definitely will be one of two places we visit when we are in this area! read more

I try to go here often when I'm in Richmond because they deserve all the business. The owner is always so friendly and cares about your experience. I want to try other things on the menu but the cevapi is so fantastic it's hard to stray away from. I've been ordering from them since when they had the smaller location that has since been turned into the market, but the new restaurant building is very spacious and clean. read more

I can't even explain what it means to me, a Serbian woman, to have Bosna restaurant and the store here in my town! Restaurant is surprisingly large and open, and super clean. I love all the food especially the burek and cevapi, and I love that I can have some groceries from my childhood to take home. Owner is a wonderful person, we always have a lovely conversation. You will LOVE this place and should definitely try it! read more

The host/owner greeted us very warmly and professionally right at the entrance. The restaurant was spotless. Open and bright. We started with a selection of pitas (Burek, sirnica and zeljanica). All excellent, flaky, delicious, just like in Bosnia. Our main entrees were all as equally delicious. Freshly made bread was yummy. Excellent experience all together. Thank you. If in Richmond area, will definitely come back. Thank you! read more

My daughter in law is from Bosnia and said the food was very traditional. It was delicious and the service was excellent.

Great food and service. I like Bosna. I will go back. I recommend trying Bosna. Delicious food.

Let me just start by saying that the people who run this place are incredibly sweet. It threw me off at first because the market and restaurant are separate, and the nice man at the market pointed me in the right direction. I will definitely be coming back! I got the beef burek and it was incredibly tasty and large. The nice man in the restaurant also included free yogurt in my bag! Amazing, I would love to come back again and try the cevapi. read more

Great place to try out delicious food from Bosnia and the Balkan region. The Čevapi are always a good choice if you want meat and you are hungry. The owner is extremely friendly and will definitely be glad to help you choose your food. "Bosna" is a Restaurant/Grocery store so don't expect a fine dining experience. Neither is it a Fast Food place. But you will walk out satisfied! If you like strong coffee don't forget to try their Bosnian Coffee. It will be served using an original Bosnian coffee service set which is an experience by itself. read more
