Rudnik In Vicenza

Of course, it's not possible to exactly recreate the flavors of the Balkans, but this one comes very close and is really good!

We went for a family lunch a couple of weeks ago. The food was excellent and the staff were super friendly and helpful. We'll definitely be back! Highly recommended.

It's a really nice place! The food is good, there's a nice atmosphere, and the staff is very friendly and nice. I had a great time.

Beautiful atmosphere. Delicious, typical Serbian food. We were very happy and will be back soon. Milos Nikolic

Best service I had in Italy! The owners are really kind! The food is AMAZING and the prices very honest! I am for sure coming back here!

Typical Balkan food, very good. The staff was very friendly.

A very intimate and welcoming restaurant, it feels like home! Textbook Balkan food, embracing tradition through and through with a few innovative touches. The warm and relaxing atmosphere is the perfect mix for dining! The staff is more than helpful and cheerful, ready to accommodate any request wherever possible. I think the value for money is fair, given the quality you can taste in every bite. Finally, the owner is a very young man who knows how to welcome guests and make them feel at home. I had the cevapcici, and I can only say they are some of the best I've ever had.

A unique culinary and ethnic experience; the staff were very warm and friendly; the meat was of good quality and variety. We ordered the miner's platter, the house specialty: nothing to complain about. The atmosphere is welcoming; it feels like the owner is inviting you into their home, so great is their welcoming spirit. They greet you with a welcome liqueur, which they share with you, while Balkan music plays in the background... An experience more than just a meal.

A simply fantastic convivial experience. The traditional Balkan dishes, predominantly meat-based, are all excellent. The atmosphere is relaxed and the place is suitable for any occasion, from couples to groups of friends. The owner and the wait staff are extremely kind, and the wait times are just right. I recommend always asking for off-menu dishes: they're delicious! There are numerous gluten-free options, and reservations are almost a must, as the place is small and can be difficult to find on weekends (feel free to contact them via WU because they respond promptly and, more importantly, get back to you as soon as seats become available!).
