All things considered, this is a 4 star place. Homolje is a classical Serbian Grill/Restaurant…read moreserving a wide variety of grilled meats on a charcoal grill. Although I would generally rate the food as 3.5 stars on average, when I consider the fantastically affordable prices, I am confident that 4 star rating is well deserved.
So here is the review:
- Karadjordjeva schnitzel - think of Wienerschnitzel rolled up and stuffed with kaymak (kind of extra fatty cream cheese spread), served with fries. This is a big dish (I doubt that you'll be able to finish it) and probably the most expensive one on the menu costing the whopping EUR 12. Very good quality meat, juicy and tender - 4.5 stars!
- Raznjici - pork skewers. The best equivalent for this dish is Greek souvlaki. This is a very good dish, you get a generous portion of two skewers and some salad on the side, for an amazing price of EUR 4.80! The meat is tender and juicy (due to strategically placed fatty pieces), - easily 4 stars.
- Cevapcici (or cevapi) - kind of skinless sausages made with ground beef and pork. I had better (a lot better). For some reason, every time I had them there, they were over-seasoned (I am not sure, but I think that they put MSG in the mix). Although extremely big and filling, as well as really inexpensive, I wouldn't give them more than 3 stars.
- Pljeskavica - Serbian burger. Made out of the same meat as cevepcici above, served in a home made, warm, and totally awesome Serbian pita/bun (lepinja), for only EUR 3.90! Ask them to put some kaymak on top of it and it will make it exponentially better. Excellent deal and with kaymak a 3.5 star dish. You can also chose fancier, stuffed (with kaymak or cheese), version of pljeskavica or the one with bacon bits and spicy pepper flakes in the mix.
- Sopska salad - kind of Greek salad with grated white cheese on top. Better when tomatoes are in season and if properly seasoned a solid 4 star dish.
Go check it out if you are in the neighborhood. Many other grilled meats are on the menu. Four people eat and drink for well below EUR 40.
