Small portions and overpriced - Edit
Insanely small portions for a lot of money. Do not order the salads.. it was just offensive. The staff looked very well fed so they can't have been eating the customer portions. Really disappointed, check out the Chinese restaurants around the market instead.

Not bad - Edit
They have good vegan food, I recommend Belgrade steak and spaghetti bolognese. I didn't like the atmosphere, and the staff was unkind, and not open to accept critique.
Read moreCons: Expensive, unkind staff.

Super steak and stuff - Edit
The Mayka, Belgrade steak was simply one of, if not the best vegan seitan steak I have ever had (I,Ve had many!) the sauce is super the texture succulent. It came with delightfully flavoured roast potatoes. We also tried a very good chick pea “chip” dish with char grilled seitan strips. The menu is extensive with many vegan choices. The staff are friendly the interior is homely and a bit eccentric, there are seats outside in the pedestrianised street. We had waffle dessert which were good. We had two meals and drinks here and it cost us about £/e30 in total each night which is expensive by local standards but fine by "Western" ones. The portions are not huge but as I get older I have learnt to appreciate quality over quantity!

Great food, friendly staff - Edit
During our three days in Belgrade, we‘ve been there three times. The food was amazing - everything was really fresh and delicious. The staff can recommend you, what they just got from the market. Another huge plus is the great variety of vegan ‚meat’.
Read moreDespite some reviews here, we found the staff (all of them) to be very friendly!
Maybe a little bit more expensive than usual at Belgrade, but it is worth it!
Pros: Lot of delicious vegan ‚meat‘ options, Friendly & helpful staff, Recommendations for fresh market vegetables

Cozy local bar - Edit
Mayka and Pijaza bar in one place. I came here at night and the kitchen was closed, so I offered a hot ginger drink. The place has a lot of old Yugoslavian decorations and style. The place seems to be animal-friendly and there was a friendly dog inside.
Read moreCurious how this place looks in the daytime, in the evening it is quite dark here. But in general, the place is quite good.
Cons: Smoking inside

Good food - Edit
Really great to get veganised versions of more traditional Serbian food. I tried the starter with sausages and vegan cheese which was delicious, especially the sausage. I also had the Belgrade steak which I enjoyed immensely.

"Steak" - Edit
I appreciated the willingness to try something new with this dish. I enjoyed it very much, and really liked the interior and exterior of the restaurant. A little more expensive than normal but very much worth it.

Very disappointing - Edit
I really don't know where this restaurant got its "best veg place in Belgrade" reputation from. Everything on my plate was a disappointment except a tiny bit of cucumber salad that was actually fresh and tasted good. You could tell by the texture, the color and uneven temperature of the vegetables that pretty much everything was eithet kept in the fridge for way too long (the hummus for example, it was dry, tasteless, and had a funky texture) or reheated in the microwave (the vegetables were discolored due to oxidation, the rice came extremely dry and in lumps). 70% of what i got on my plate wasn't made in-house, and the stuff that was made in-house was bad. All in all, i would not recommend this place. I had a better meal in a fast-food falafel place on the street than in Mayka.

A good selection of vegan options and right in city centre - Edit
I went twice, had the vegan platter which was pretty good, I wasn’t a fan of the way the tempeh was done but was a good sized meal. Second time I had the vegan burger, the seitan was over cooked and the cheese was not to my liking but the potato side dish was yummy.

SO GOOD! - Edit
The menu is long and with so many vegan options it was hard to choose, but after seeing a bunch of people recommend the Belgrade Steak I decided on that. My boyfriend had the seitan cheeseburger and we were both so impressed. The “steak” was really juicy and flavourful and the sides of paprika potatoes, cucumber salad, bread and cheeze were delicious too. Huge drinks selection and the waiter recommended us a nice draft beer. There didn’t seem to be much indoor seating, but there was a bunch of free tables out the front which was fine (we went at 2pm on a Saturday so it wasn’t too busy).
Read moreThis was the best meal we’ve had in a while, it was a little expensive for our backpacker budget otherwise we definitely would’ve come back the next day. The bill was 3125rsd for two mains and three drinks, and they included some sort of service charge. By Balkans standards it’s a bit pricy, but still less than half what we would pay for something similar back home in Australia.
Pros: delicious food, friendly waiter (young guy), lots of variety
Cons: on the expensive side - but worth it

Good food, bad service - Edit
We ate here twice during our stay in Belgrade. The first time we had the Belgrade seitan stake and one of the burgers. Both were delicious. The second time we had the seitan goulash and the Mayka special platter. The goulash was also very good. The seitan sausages and chutney on the platter were also excellent, but the vegetables were a bit too salty.
Read moreThe second time we went, our order was taken by a very rude older man (the owner?). We were warned that we would have tot wait half an hour for the Mayka special platter, but it ended up taking 75 minutes (!) to prepare our food. Both plates were also not served at the same time... during the wait we ware basically ignored by the waiters (no one came to check whether we needed something to drink etc).
Still three stars because we've never had seitan prepared so well in several different ways!

Amazing vegan local food - Edit
The food was amazing! Lots of different vegan options, the menu was clearly marked and labelled with what was vegan or possible to veganise. We were two vegans and had the Belgrade steak and the mambo mix, really good tempeh, vegan cevapcici, grilled tofu, grilled seitan steak, grilled veggies and potato wedges. Felt like Serbian food, but for vegans! The staff was really nice and the place is very cozy. The menu also included burgers and Indian food which we didn't tried. Main dish around 900-1100 RSD.

The best potatoes - Edit
The food is really very delicious and the price fair. Besides the Goulash, we ate a wonderful burger, but it was the paprika-flavored potatoes that won my heart.

The best vegan steak in existence - Edit
The seitan-based “Belgrade Steak” is god-tier. The quality, texture and taste was so perfect I nearly wept from sheer joy... It’s obvious the owner of the restaurant has poured his heart and soul into perfecting these dishes and hearing my feedback was met with great warmth. I’ve never experienced anything quite this good... 5 Stars.

Really really tasty food! - Edit
Loads of vegan options everything labelled clearly mock meats are really good but have other tasty vegan options too! We had the Serbian starter which was sooooo good full of flavour and nice to have a traditional Serbian veganised dish. I had the bbq steak which was incredible the sides with it also amazing i tried my partners vegan goulash which too was lovely! We managed a bit of dessert but were so full had to take away with us. Staff were very friendly and helpful answered all of our questions and gave great recommendations! On the pricey side for the balkans but it is Belgrade however I would say the food it’s worth the money !
