Denada Bistro & Cafe — Restaurant in City of Belgrade

I have spend at least a year in Belgrade on 30 separate visits during the last 5 years and eat out a lot. This is my new favourite bistro in Belgrade❤️ The 6 tables inside are supplemented by a few more outside on a little square with two more eateries next to it. The interior is uncluttered and very welcoming. Good jazz playing through the speakers and soft light create a very warm atmosphere, where you will feel comfortable even if sitting alone, reading a book. The menu offers everybody's comfort food, lovingly prepared by the cook from the best of fresh ingredients. I have tried their English breakfast as well as their falafel/labane/tabouleh plate. The toast was pan-fried, sausages with pockets of melted cheese were smoked to perfection. I would describe their kitchen as the very best of lovingly made home-cooked food. Tasty, appetising, fresh and very reasonably priced. They serve breakfast all day and the friendly, forthcoming service makes it a culinary island of happiness even amongst so many other great culinary spots in Belgrade. I came, I saw and...

A sweet little neighborhood bistro close, but not too close, to everything. De Nada has a small indoor and outdoor seating area, and an eclectic but satisfying and varied menu. I had an excellent baked Mac and Cheese casserole for lunch, and a delicious breakfast brioche sandwich for breakfast. Each time I sampled freshly squeezed juices that were like drinking fruit from the tree- because it was! The friendly owner is on site and working, always a good sign. Special touches like big garden umbrellas to shield you from the sun or light rain, and garden boxes add to the ambiance. Best of all, they are dog friendly and even put out water dishes for the mutts! Open at 0800 for breakfast, which is rarely found in Belgrade....

We arrived at the restaurant and went to the ordering counter to ask if we needed to sit at a table to order or come to them directly. The waitress looked at us as if we had fallen from the sky, said that orders are taken when you’re seated, and as we went to our table she literally stared and laughed at us. When we looked back at her, she said “sorry” and kept laughing.

My partner ordered an avocado toast with a poached egg. She started eating it and only toward the end noticed that there were worms in the dish!! They didn’t charge us for her meal, but they did charge for mine.

An arrogant place that mocks people who simply want to eat there, and on top of that, they served a dish with worms. Absolutely not...
