Ćevapi is more than just a meal in the Balkans—it’s a symbol of tradition and flavor. Recently, we held a vote among our followers to determine the best restaurant for ćevapi in the region, and the overwhelming choice was Restaurant Željo in Sarajevo, Bosnia. Here’s why it captured the hearts (and taste buds) of so many, along with a few tips on experiencing ćevapi like a true local

 

Why Sarajevo Stands Out for Ćevapi

Sarajevo’s ćevapi scene is steeped in history, with recipes passed down through generations. Restaurant Željo, the winner of our poll, is renowned for its perfectly grilled ćevapi, served with fluffy somun, fresh onions, and a side of tangy yogurt or creamy kajmak. It’s not just about the taste—it’s about the authenticity that defines the Bosnian ćevapi experience.

Tips for Enjoying Ćevapi Like a Local

• Follow the Crowd: Local favorites like Željo are popular for a reason. If you see a line, it’s worth the wait.

• Pair It Right: Bosnians often pair their ćevapi with a refreshing yogurt drink or a cold Sarajevsko beer for the full experience.

• Explore Beyond: While Željo in Sarajevo offers an iconic ćevapi experience, other Balkan countries like Serbia, Montenegro, and North Macedonia each have their own unique takes—be sure to try them all!

What Our Followers Loved Our followers praised not just the delicious food at Željo but also the welcoming atmosphere and the feeling of being part of something traditionally Bosnian. The experience goes beyond eating—it’s about connecting with the local culture and history.

Final Thoughts

If you’re visiting the Balkans, a stop in Sarajevo for ćevapi is a must. Whether it’s your first time or you’re a seasoned traveler, enjoying ćevapi at a beloved local spot like Željo is a memory you won’t forget.
