Spinach feta Burek Slice
Frances R.

Partner picked up meat Burek, spinach feta Burek and a chicken soup as I am recovering at home. He also shows up with a sweet surprise, baklava and tollumba! Everything was delicious. Burek fillings are tasty, dough flaky the sweets were amazing.

Meat burek
Glenn C.

I was looking through Doordash for something different and I came across this place. I've been to some other Balkan places and I am a fan of burek so I ordered from here. I went with a shopska salad, a meat burek, and a hurmašice for dessert to try a bit of each of the menus. I wish I could have ordered a tufahija but I understand that this dessert would be really difficult to deliver. They also don't have Ćevapi on the takeout menu which is unfortunate (as it's on the regular menu) so their online menu by comparison is a bit limited. The Shopska salad, which is their variant of Shephard Salad, was excellent and cheap with a whole lot of feta and some fresh vegetables being a mi of tomatoes and bell peppers with some balsamic on top. It was quite worth it for the price and I would recommend it. The meat burek was comparable to most other places I have been to. It was quite good, soft on the outside with ample filling. Hurmašice or Hurmasica is simply a cake topped with syrup. As the rest of the menu, it tasted homemade and it was quite tasty also. Good little Bosnian place which I will order from again (though I hope they add more dishes from their menu to DoorDash so I don't have to stop there.)

Turkish coffee and dessert

Family run and very authentic Turkish place. The aroma of espresso and the smell of meat, herb fills the place. A treasure in Clifton, experience the flavor without the travel. A must visit when you go to Clifton.

Variety of burek slice.... Cheese, spinach, meat
Duy N.

I had the opportunity to try Bosnian food or in other words balkan food. Let me tell the food was freaking amazing!!! The owner was so nice and absolutely awesome to talk to. The vibe you get from him is like we are family. First, food choice to come out was the most fluffy burek slices ranging from cheese, spinach and even meat version. I truly enjoyed the meat slice so much I even licked my fingers clean. Second food selection that came out was the chevapi and man when I saw the meat was so juicy and tender it literally brings a smile to my face while making my mouth water. Make sure to rip a piece of the bread grab a piece of the meat and grab some onions you'll thank me later. The chevapi is so flavorful that will drive your taste palates into overtime!!! Third food selection the owner personally recommended to us was the two month old veal slow cooked to perfection. Literally you pierce your fork into it the meat just falls apart. First bite the flavor of the veal will take you to nirvana. Try this if you try the veal, take a piece of the bread from the chevapi and dip it into the bone marrow. That delicious flavor from slow cooking is going to kick you senses into overtime! Will I recommend someone to come try this restaurant? Absolutely!!! I cannot wait to go back and try this.

Not bad, but I've had better Bosnian food. Good, filling, comfort food. I've been here a couple of times and usually order the staples which is the burek (meat, spinach, or cheese filled), or cevape (meat sausages with two pieces of lepinje bread). Never had the desert here, but I am sure it is great on the sweet tooth. What I really love about the place is the Bosnian vibe. The decor and music really makes me feel like I am back home. Not many places in New Jersey like this.

Chevapi
Aisha M.

This spot has been open for 20 years and its not in the kind of neighborhood I would visit, but now I come here just for the Burek. The meat Burek is really good! It's perfectly crispy and freshly made. Their soups are also amazing, especially the Kelle Pache. Another great dish is the Chevapi and we always end up ordering the Mantije. I've tried the other dishes and they are worth trying, but not things I would order again. My only complaint is with the bread they serve. It's not good at all and unless I remember to ask them to hold it, it ends up untouched.

There's a clean bathroom!!!

Came here with my buddy for Bosnian food. The menu said there was a lamb (Friday) special but they were either out of it or they stopped making it. We settled for sharing the chevapi, the meat burek, and 2 desserts. The best item was the burek. The crust was crispy and it baked fresh. The chevapi was different for us. It seemed like there like baking soda or something that gave it was chemically taste to the meat. The desserts were not that great. They've been in the fridge for awhile. It had a stale taste for us. I'm not gonna knock this place. It's very authentic and I was glad to try different cuisine. I really liked what was airing on the TV. Pretty ladies singing. We really liked the CD holder upcyled as a waterfall. Cc accepted, bathroom is clean

Meat Burek Slice
Huda S.

As a part Bosnian who has ventured little into Bosnian cuisine, I was super excited to try this place. I had heard a lot about it from some Bosnians that I know crediting Burek King for being very authentic. I came in on a Wednesday evening with a friend, and this place reminded me of being in my grandparents' kitchen. The location has a cutely decorated seating area with a very home-like feel. The owner greeted us very kindly and made an effort to get to know us. The menu offers a good assortment of authentic Bosnian dishes without being too overwhelming. My friend and I started off with the Burek. I got one stuffed with meat and one stuffed with leek and cheese. Both types were extremely authentic with much higher quality dough than other Burek I have had. They were flakey, flavorful, and tasted homemade and fresh. I personally liked the meat-stuffed one better, but both were very high quality. We also placed an order fir the Cevapi. We could see the owner's wife making it fresh behind their counter. After about 15 minutes and an amazing serving of Burek, our Cevapi came out fresh and piping hot. The portion was extremely generous with 10 pieces of Cevapi meat kebabs inside of homemade bread. The quality, texture, and freshness of the meat is unmatched. The owner also gave us some of the freshest yogurt and red pepper sauce to dip out meat in. He made sure to check that we were enjoying our food and seemed to genuinely care about our satisfaction with our food. Overall, this place is DEFINITELY worth a visit. While it's not a super aesthetic or glamorous restaurant, it boasts true small business quality. The authenticity , food quality, large portions, and customer service are exemplary. If you're in need restaurant meal that feels homemade and comforting, pay Burek King a visit please.

Spinach Burek Slice
Tina C.

I ordered delivery from here, and everything was freshly prepared and warm when it arrived. I had a slice of the spinach burek, and it was packed with spinach and cheese! I also had tulumba, which reminded me of a churro. It's basically fried dough with honey, and it was delicious. I recommend warming it up for a few seconds. Others who ordered also enjoyed their food, and I'll continue to order from here and try the menu out.

Food- Apple Cinnamon Dessert (I don't know the exact name!)

I don't know of many traditional Balkan food spots. Burek King is an awesome introduction to the cuisine, is very affordable, is halal, and is delicious! The chevapi seems to be the most popular item, and the most classical item on their menu. Definitely give it a try for a huge portion of food for the cost. All the food has that homemade made-by-grandma taste and is full of flavor, despite being pretty straightforward- the chevapi is basically meat, bread, and raw onions! The Bosnian special was also spectacular. The meat was extremely tender and flavorful. They do offer outdoor dining and the food was prepared quickly. Overall, if you're looking to explore a new cuisine, definitely try out Burek King!

I came here two weeks ago based on some really great reviews and they did not disappoint. I ordered…read moremy food to pick up. I got to the location. The restaurant has parking in the back and around the side. There's also street parking. The ambience on the inside was elegant and tasteful with a bit of old charm.I picked up my order the cashier says. I ordered the Cappadocia Branzino. It was a whole grilled branzino seasoned in house special spices, springs, lemon, and garlic. It also comes with a that was delicious with carrots, cucumbers, red onions, parsley, lettuce and a house made dressing. The salad was delicious and full of flavor. The dressing really was delicious and didn't over power the salad but really complimented the salad. The meal also came with this delicious rice, but I'm not sure what type of rice it was. It was firm but not hard and really glided on each bite. The branzino was out of this world it was moist the special seasonings were throughout the entire fish it was really seasoned and prepared well. You could taste it on each bite. The garlic was delicious and not overpowering.I ordered the whole fish (you could get it fillet, but I didn't want it that way). I ate every bite of the fish. It was amazing. I'll definitely be back!!

This was my second visit. And, unfortunately, it was not as good as I remembered. We visited at…read moreabout 2 PM on a Friday. My companion and I both ordered the salad with grilled salmon for $20 each. The salmon was a handful of tiny cubes of salmon filet with skin on and was a bit fishy. The restaurant is clean and nicely decorated. The service was fine. But, I do not know that I would return.

Mishmish Cafe - Chicken Shawarma Dinner for Two

A truly lovely amalgamation of a welcoming ambiance, great n quick service and absolutely delicious…read morefresh Mediterranean food. Menu spans lots of options, and I'd recommend the shawarma bowl and schnitzel pita (fantastic!). Outdoor seating is available too. PS: they've changed their name to Marcel, so don't let that confuse you PS2: did I mention they play a serious pastry game here too?

Disappointing and Overpriced Group Dining Experience…read more A friend organized a dinner for six at Mishmish, expecting a quality dining experience. Instead, we were told upon arrival that parties of six could not order from the regular menu and would receive a special chef's tasting menu. We were also informed that gratuity was automatically included. The service got off to a poor start. When I requested still water, the server responded, "So, tap for you," later explaining that the tap water was filtered. Two guests received their drinks promptly, while the rest of us waited at least 15 minutes--before the first dish even arrived. The food was served family-style, but the portions and presentation made little sense for a table of six. Most dishes came on only two plates, with one small portion intended for three people to share. We received items such as a small bun with sauce, a modest salad, a piece of smoked trout, and buttered boiled potatoes--the best dish of the meal, although hardly an impressive accomplishment. Most absurdly, two chicken legs were served for three people to share. How exactly were three guests expected to divide two chicken legs? A tasting menu for six should be properly portioned, not presented as a series of awkward, undersized servings. There was also confusion about the menu. When one guest pointed out that two listed items on our special menu had not been served, the server consulted the chef and returned to say that we had received everything we were supposed to receive. If items had been removed from our menu, we should have been told at the beginning of the meal--or the menu should have been corrected. Following this we were provided A dessert consisting of an extremely bitter artichoke-based liqueur and one small scoop of mint chocolate chip ice cream for every three guests to share described as "a gesture" based on the menu confusion. The presentation for a table of six was virtually nonexistent. Dishes were simply placed on the table, and we sometimes had to ask what we had been served. The service was mediocre at best, the portions were poorly planned, and the overall experience felt disorganized. At $130 per person--$780 total, including the automatic gratuity--the meal was nowhere near the quality or value expected at that price. Needless to say, I will not return.

Çka Ka Qëllu has been on my radar for a while now. I first heard about it several years ago when…read morethey first opened in the Arthur Ave neighborhood - standing out as a traditional Albanian restaurant amongst the sea of Italian eateries. Fast forward to the present day, and they have gained considerable attention. The restaurant has made the NYT's Top 100 Restaurants in NYC list for the past 4 years, they have expanded to two (soon three) other locations, and is a favorite among the social media and celeb crowd (this is allegedly one of Dua Lipa's favorite restaurants in the city). That being said, we thought it would be a great spot to celebrate a family member's birthday - so I booked a table and off we went. Çka Ka Qëllu is located on Hughes adjacent to the back entrance of the Arthur Ave Retail Market. The restaurant is gorgeous - it's pretty spacious with three main dining rooms. The decor is a showstopper in itself - the exposed stone walls coupled with the abundance of artwork and old world accents placed throughout the dining area make this seem more like a museum than a restaurant. The ethnic music that is piped throughout the restaurant completes the feel. I honestly couldn't stop looking around. There menu is pretty expansive - most of the items I had not heard of before, but it's also approachable as they spell it out for you in the description what each dish is. We were a party of seven, so to make things easy we aligned to share everything. My brother and I decided to take lead and order items from each section. We decided to start with the ajvar, sausage dip, and tarator. These were all delicious; essentially dips, they all had great flavor and were paired with hot crusty bread mmmm. We then got a bunch of other dishes: leçenik, burek, fili, fasule with smoked meat, mantia, mazë e zier, and a shop salad. As with the dips, everything here was delicious. It's hard to pick the standouts because everything was so good - honest food, full of flavor and depth. Okay you twisted my arm - if I had to choose, my favorites were the burek and the mazë e zier. I love a good burek, and this one was top drawer. The pull on the mazë e zier was out of this world, yet it was easy to maneuver with great flavor. We ended the meal with one of their grilled dishes - namely the mixed meat combo. We chose five meats and they paired them with some vegetables and potato. At risk of sounding like a broken record - this was delicious as well. Service was awesome - everyone was welcoming and the food came out at a good pace. Overall, Çka Ka Qëllu is an absolute yes - the food, the decor, and the service were all aces. The hype is real and they deserve all the accolades they have received. Goes without saying, but I would definitely return for another meal - take me back now!
