Caffe Sarajevo

This hidden gem of Bosnian food tucked into an aging strip mall on the city's west side comes courtesy of Bosnian-born owner and chef Seida Turulja, who makes some of the best lepinja (housemade Bosnian bread) in the Valley. Featuring a small and affordable selection of some of the country's favorites (nothing on the menu is over nine dollars) served up in sizable portions; don't miss popular dishes like cevapi (grilled Bosnian kebabs), warm and pillow-y stuffed pitas, and the comforting Bosnian meat stew called Bosanski lonac. The welcoming interior, done to resemble the Bascarsija, the old town market sector where the city was founded, even boasts a working replica of the town's famous fountain, Sebilj, in the center of the room.
