Javor Agapi Mrzenci — Restaurant in Municipality of Gevgelija

For many years I regularly went to this restaurant on the way between Belgrade and Thessaloniki, with great food and experience. After a pause due to travel restrictions, this summer I again went there with family, expecting the same service... But it was a huge disappointment Namely: Smokers in a non smoking area (many kids and families there, by the way) Waiters highly unmotivated, waiting for initial service quite a while - our table with four of us was in front of the bar, with waiters?! Things are happening around (waiter checking and charging his phone next to us, some office lady was doing paperwork in the restaurant, had to move her around to free table for the restaurant guests) Many flies in the restaurant (inside) When we asked waiter for a bill, he said to us that only another waiter can do it for us, and he wasnt there, so again waiting for him to come..... When waiter (and bill) finally arrived, it was hand written on a paper - 60EUR for 1kg of lam meat, one salad, two bottles of water and bread. In a very good restaurant in Belgrade, 1kg of lam costs about 20-25EUR/kg and total this lunch could cost in Belgrade up to 40EUR. It means that in a best case we were charged about 40% more than it should be. As I was with family and did not want to ruin this experience further, they got their 60EUR without any comment from my side or asking for a proper bill - it was my last time...

I highly reccomend this restaurant. If you want to taste the best roasted lamb any time of the year, of the day...this will be place for you. Lamb is always fresh. There are no words to describe the harmony in your mouth when you try the roasted lamb. IT's melting in your mouth. Veal is the same soft and delicious just like the lamb. Great fresh organic vegetables. Don't miss to try the local yellow grape brandy called 'zolta'. Staff is realy good and friendly. It is a must visit restaurant when you come...

The lamb was nice, we ordered veal chop medium- (less roasted), and I got it medium. Ordered a mrzenci salad which costs 380 denars and charged for it 1,500 denars (not worth that price). The fried zucchini that were part of the salad were cold as like from the fridge (just like eating vomit 🤮), I reacted about the same and the waiter's answer was: he shrugs his shoulders! They didn't even bother to correct anything about what we reacted to, their response was that's it. What...
