Konoba Dukat — Restaurant in Lyons Township

It it, a small casual place that does not lack in taste of friendliness! We were there as soon as they opened. They woman behind the counter explained what they had ready, and said we can order anything, it might just take a bit longer than what was ready. I ordered half cabbage rolls and stuffed pepper. That got me two huge stuffed cabbage rolls, and the most gigantic stuffed yellow pepper I have ever seen, with a side of mashed potatoes, and some broccoli and cauliflower.

Basically it's a classic diner serving authentic Balkan food. Worth a visit for the...

Absolutely great home cooking! You feel like you're the guest of a Serbian household and in many ways you are! The sweet couple that runs this place barely speaks any English (they depend on an equally sweet Guatemalan woman to translate!) but they manage to get you great food and offer lots of little freebies. I went with the kids, who loved the place. We had one of the sausage dishes, the ghoulash, the prebanach bean dish and the one of the soups (essentially matza-ball soup). All of it was heart-warmingly delicious but the soup was probably the stand out, esp. for the kids. And oh, the bread...
