Lovely food and restaurant - Edit
Situated in one of the more quiet backstreets you find Mayka. Lovely restaurant with a mainly vegan menu with a lot of options. We sat at their nice outdoor seating and had a fat boy burger, seitan box and a salad and falafel nuggets for starters. All fresh and well tasting. Fully recommend paying Mayka a visit.

Such a wonderful little restaurant. - Edit
The owner and staff are so lovely and welcoming and the food is delicious - fresh and so yummy. The seitan sausages were chef's kiss - SO good! The restaurant itself is adorable and full of comfy chairs and unique tables and other pieces - you can tell the owners took their time picking out everything in there. Highly recommended!

Mixed fillings - Edit
I had mixed fillings after visiting this place.
Read moreThe staff's attention was nice and warm.
The food was strange: i had a seitan plate, salad, dessert and a tropical lemonade.
The potato in seitan plate was one of the best i ever had, but the amount (too much) of mock meat, its quality and taste is frustrating. Without garden salad it would be impossible to consume it.
The dessert - shrikhand, is just a milk with jam, nothing else.
The drink was bland and watery.
And at the end, the waiter dropped the pos terminal and told me that now i can pay only with cash. I think the terminal was broken before the fall.

Best Veg Food in the White City - Edit
Funky decor, crusty old rocker owner, just off Kneza Mihailova... what's not to love? Best of all, the food is excellent. I've tried virtually everything on the menu in the many years I've been coming to Belgrade and loved it all. I'd especially recommend the Seitan Box, but everything is good. When the weather is fine--quite a lot of the time in Belgrade--you can sit outside, too, and watch the city's fascinating life walk by.
Read morePros: Delicious food, Good-sized portions, Relaxed atmosphere

Awesome vegan food - Edit
I always like to come here for lunch or dinner. The food is excellent, there is a lot of choices, and the flavours are rich and unique. Location is in the heart of the city, but the street is not overcrowded and it's pleasent to sit in the garden. Service is great, I always get good recommendations. Also, I often bring friends who are not vegan/vegetarian and they all absolutely love it!
Read morePet very friendly too. 😌

Tasty vegan burgers and nuggets, everything tasted very fresh and wasn’t oily at all. The owner was very friendly and gave us a lovely dessert after the meal. We also really liked the cat sleeping next to our table.

The inside of this place is just covered head to toe in the coolest trinkets and decorations, I enjoyed the homeliness of it. The food was okay, but a little dry and overpriced. I appreciate how everything is homemade though:)

Not good - Edit
I have to go against the grain here: My experience at this restaurant was not pleasant. The decor is unique, but the food is uninspired. My seitan box contained potatoes and a variety of fried "meats", which all had a similar taste and texture that I didn't enjoy. The starter platter arrived after the main course, and while the dips tasted alright, the amount of bread was much too small in comparison. Not recommended.

Strange but worth a visit. - Edit
Very interesting interior and staff. Can't quite put a finger on the vibe they gave off.
Read moreThe food was good on itself, but I think the combination of options I took was not ideal (eg., the seitan box was very big and too dry to eat just that, but I mistakenly expected it to come with something else like some salad).

Nice prepared home cooked meal - Edit
All ingredients are home made, and you can really taste that. It is suprisingly well seasoned, I didn't have to add anuthing to that. And they know thay obviously because they don't put seasons aside like in all Serbian restaurants.
Read moreWe took starter that include tortila with some dips (hummus, tahini, ajvar, vegan tartar sause). All dips were excellent. I would just like to see some oven baked tortila chips variant with it, instead of classic tortila, it would be more practical.
For main dishes we took sheitan gyros and "Miss piggy burger". Sauce that comes inside gyros tortila is magnificent, really creamy and yummy. Burger was good too. Burger itself is muche better that store bought ones, it is soft and smoky, I don't have any complain other that I would like it to be bigger.
Vegan cheese is from almond and sunflower seeds, not some crap full of aditives. Big plus for that.
Mango salad is raw and refreshing, combination of ingredients is great. Real summer salad.
It is quite expensive restaurant, honestly but for home made thing is reasonable.
Restaurant has rustic, calmy atmosfere. I will come by again for sure!

It's more vegan then vegetarian - Edit
I planed to visit the place sometime. I knew prices were pretty high.
Read moreMany options . We got starter sauces "my mezze" with ridiculosly small tortillas. We asked for 2 more(on photo) which were bigger and fresh , it was 280 dirams just for 2 of the! "7 with red" and seitan box were pretty the same, anddd very heavy. Vegan food can be unhealthy also . Even seitan. At least I felt as I eat something heavy and strong durst.
Updated from previous review on 2023-06-07
Pros: Could be completely vegan place, Huge variation
Cons: Pretty pricy, Seitan box and sevenths were pretty heavy.

Great place to try local food - Edit
I went here for lunch and had a few of the local dishes to share with my husband. We really enjoyed the food, though it was definitely on the salty side. The staff was very kind and the inside of the restaurant was quirky. We really enjoyed the patio seating.

Great staff and ambience, and food that's out of this world - Edit
This is probably the best flavoured food we've had anywhere in the world, and we've travelled a lot. The flavours and the freshness is a credit to the staff. Order anything or let the waiter choose for you and you can guarantee it will be perfect. The ambience is also an experience. Just go to Mayka and experience something unique. We did, every one of our 3 nights in Belgrade. If we could take this restaurant back to our home town in New Zealand it would be on a plane already.
Read morePros: Food: Lots of options, delicious vegan food, Ambience: How do you describe the indescribable, Staff: Quirky, entertaining, friendly and helpful
Cons: We couldn't take this restaurant back home to NZ, Patrons are allowed to smoke inside

Great food and atmosphere - Edit
This was my first time at the new location. The staff (owners maybe) were super friendly and helpful. Recommended off the menu items. We had meze (4 dips, tortilla and olives) and they were extra tasty. Mango salad (mixed salad of fruits and veggies) also tasty. Cevapcice. They came in a burger bun with potatoes. Tasty. Veggie curry with rice. A bonus was a cute cat that was hanging out with us. I definitely plan to go back.
Read morePros: Lots of vegan options. , Friendly atmosphere. , Amazing flavors.

Great home made food and interesting interior - Edit
They have lots of different vegan options, make everything (seitan, sauces...) on their own and the atmosphere is just so unique. It's not your everyday fancy restaurant. It is full of details and stuff that looks right from the flee market. I love it! The food tastes really good and you can feel the love that went into it. If you are looking for a special place and are cool with two lovely cats around this is your place.
