Djerdan Burek Astoria — Restaurant in New York

The food is OK, NOT the Best, but is OK. The place it's self has been renovated. The women in the Kitchen " Chefs " are amazing great. The waitress are Not so pleasant, that's a problem. When you ask them for anything they seem to not like it and often they don't answer, but when it comes to tipping they seem to want the 20%. That's NOT how it should be. Tipping is provided based on the Service and NOT on the quality of food. This particular waitress (see the photo) has always a "chowing gum" and when she talks to people it doesn't look good.

I drove 2 and a half hours to get to this place. As I was driving I called and placed the order 2 meat pies and some other stuff. When I get there the lady in front only gives me one.

I give the burek, especially the spinach, a 10/10. Flaky, flavorful, and filling...this is as good as it gets. The meat and cheese burek are also solid A options and it's worth ordering as many varieties as you can if you're not rolling solo so bring a friend and two and get in on as much goodness as you can.

The cevapi and other meat options here are good, but not great so stick to the item that is in the name of the establishment and be wowed with burek perfection! They also have several desserts and all are...
