Serious Eats: Your source for any and all Balkan cured meats, all done in-house. Bacon, sausages, and mortadella all excellent. Don't miss the freshly fried pork rinds.
Mark D: amazing sausage and smoked meats
Tony Xerri: Closest thing to a real European butcher you'll ever get. They have THE BEST hot dogs, liverwurst and blood sausage on the planet. More varieties of bacon than the fingers on your hand.
M M: I love their breakfast! Huevos ala Mexicana with chorizo! It comes with rice and beans and tortillas. You can smother it in hot, green salsa. That and a cafe con leche are a delicious belly-buster. =)
Qbertplaya: I love their eggs w/ chorizo especially smothered in green salsa. They don't open until 10am, tho.
Christina C.: Chorizo taco is very good. The enchiladas in mole sauce is very filing. Share with someone & order 2 beef & 2 chicken to change things up a bit. Very affordable!
Zach Rubenfeld: Definitely get the one wheat beer on tap. Sausage selection is crazy and you really can't go wrong. Great day drinking spot.
Lucas Santos: Beer and rattle snake sausage
Elska Magazine: Tasty draft beers, a million types of sausages, and even heard some Icelandic pop playing. Lots of outdoor seating too. Great asset to the neighbourhood!

JYOTI SINGH: Frozen margaritas, chorizo nachos, grasshopper tacos, mango flan
Jamie W: Octopus chorizo tacos and the camarones tacuba are absolutely everything.

Amanda Theiler: Cevapi sausage sandwich $6, or boreks!
Julie Soscia: You must try the cevapi, be sure to order kajmak (cheese dip), onions and ajvar (carrot dip) on the side. If you're extra hungry, try the fresh pitas (pies) - Spinach Pie is a personal fave.
