“ I have been eating at Dunav for over a decade. The quality has never wavered. Solid well-seasoned Serbian food. The Civapi may be the best in the city. This is a hidden gem in the near Western suburbs. Don’t let the nondescript exterior fool you. Serbian food is a singular and a treat. Go hungry. The portions are generous. ”
“ Great,authentic food from Serbia. ”
“ Great food! It's your typical hole in the wall food place with ridiculously good food. The portions are unreasonably large, you will definitely have a lot of leftovers. ”
“ Very very tasty food. Very generous portions Serbian style dishes. Well priced. Delicious pita bread...don't pass on that. I totally loved that food. First time eating there. Will be back for sure Thank you ”
“ We had the great luck of finding a new favorite tonight -- Dunav Restaurant on Ogden. The mixed grill and muckalica we ordered were both incredible. If you go, don't forget to get a side of the grilled vegetables (mixed peppers and mushrooms -- I'm helpless for these grilled mushrooms!). The lepinja (bread) is fantastic with the cream cheese. You'll also appreciate how friendly the staff (Thanks again, Dragana!) and the other customers are, even if you're the only person in the room who doesn't speak Serbian! We can't wait to come back. Perhaps one day I'll know enough Serbian to sing along! ”
