" I really did enjoy my time at Aroma Cafe. The server was friendly, but they seemed a bit overwhelmed that day. The food tasted good—especially their chicken kebabs—but proportions felt small relative to the price. The environment was nice but could use some updates to reflect a more authentic Balkan feel. I might return but with mixed feelings. " (*Curated Review*)

" Aroma Cafe has quickly become one of my go-to restaurants! Their cevapi is delicious and it's served with a delightful homemade ajvar. I also really enjoyed the ambiance of the place— it feels like a little piece of the Balkans right in the heart of the city. The service was attentive without being overbearing. I just wish they offered more vegetarian options. " (*Curated Review*)

" My recent visit to Aroma Cafe was quite disappointing. I was eager to indulge in their renowned dishes but found the čošak bland and underwhelming. The service, while friendly, took longer than expected. I expected more authentic flavors, particularly during prime dining hours. I might consider giving it another shot in the future, hoping for an improved experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" This restaurant has a cozy little market where you can get authentic Eastern European snacks. The atmosphere is relaxed and inviting. I absolutely loved the potato burek—it was flaky and filled with delicious creamy potato filling. The service staff really know their stuff. I appreciated their recommendations and attentiveness. A must-visit for Balkan food lovers! " (*Curated Review*)

" Average experience overall. The food was okay, nothing spectacular. Service felt rushed even though the restaurant wasn’t overly busy. I appreciated the effort from the staff, but it's hard to overlook how forgettable the meals were. Maybe I’ll give it another shot but today’s experience didn’t win me over. " (*Curated Review*)

" Another visit to Aroma Cafe, and another great meal! I had the cornbread with honey and herbs to start, followed by some chicken sarma. Each bite took me back to the flavors of home. Their approach to food here feels genuine. The environment is casual and welcoming, just how I like my dining experiences. Can't wait for my next meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" I will never forget my first experience at Aroma Cafe! The owner treated us like family and the dishes were so flavorful and authentic. The cevapi brought me back home instantly! The cabbage rolls were remarkable as well, and sharing a table with strangers made it feel like a community gathering. I left feeling happy and satisfied. I can’t wait to come back! " (*Curated Review*)
