Bon Appetit is THE hidden gem of Sarajevo’s food scene. While most restaurants deliver same old boring menus (chicken in mushroom sauce, rump steak or seabass with veggies), Chef Emir is way ahead, setting standards with this international mix of a a-la-carte menu or even 5 or 7 tasting menu courses (plenty of wine to pair!). I haven’t been to this intimate, charming, romantic, cozy restaurant in 4 years and boy was I glad to return after having tasted most of what Bosnia’s capital has to offer. I was pleasantly surprised with the main course items such as moroccan chicken, wagyu A5 beef, duck breast, ossobuco, Parisian entrecote, slowly cooked lamb, and especially the Rabo de Toro (bull’s tail stew) but with a Bosnian home made “pasta” while my wife enjoyed the wild fish catch of the day. We also shared the delicious mozzarella in hazelnut as a starter (the tuna is recommended too). Everything you order is a tasty gastronomique master piece and you can check out the menu on instagram with the dish photos. Also, approximately once a month, theres a theme night (recently French and Dalmatian). I look forward to returning for my birthday in the coming weeks with the boys also. Highly, highly recommend this...

Mostly with a little improvement around the food it could be a...

After returning for a second time it was further obvious how special this place was. For such a small restaurant, to have such apparent pride and joy with the service they provide, it is wonderful. The staff are very passionate about their work and that reflects in the food they make and service they provide. With a fun yet relaxed atmosphere, it is perfect for anything from a date to a group outing. I am vegetarian and the food I had was amazing, please see attached photos of the Goats cheese starter, chickpeas burger and orange...
