Vegan steak

Good food and very nice staff. My friend and I went twice we liked it so much.

Get the vegan steak plate. Super good seitan. Good texture and flavor!

Great food and ambiance

This place is in the center of Belgrade. Vegetarian place with lots of vegan options. We shared few of the local Serbian dishes ( Belgrade steak and cevapi sandwich) in vegan version, and let me tell you, we were more than satisfied. Food is amazing and portions huge. Staff is super friendly and atmosphere of the place great. We’ll definitely be coming back.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Huge portions, Great ambiance

They do it different!

Right now the place is a bit under construction.
Still, most things run as usual - one part of the place has comfy & cool looking seats & environment.

What's to mention: The potato wedges tasted really good! Less strong fried than on other places, therefore more soft, with fresh taste and fince spices.
Also the Saitan ("-steak") was not the chewy version as usual, but more a thick, soft one. Nice to try.

Main course size is big, staff friendly, price ok - bit on the higher side though.

Plenty of vegan options - marked with a sign (which also means 'can be made vegan' - a bit confusing when nonvegan words like *-cheese etc, are used on the same time.)

Came back the next day😄

What really made me come back was the super friendly waiter haha. I had the mixed platter, which was really good and a Nektar beer which was recommended to me by the waiter. I enjoyed the platter and the beer very much. The next day I came back with my boyfriend just to have a drink. I had the banana daiquiri, yum! And my boyfriend had a fresh juice, which he liked very much. Loved the outdoor seating and the decor inside.

Pros: Friendly staff , Unique decor/setting, Mix between traditional and Indian food

Cons: A bit pricey

Love it

Patio has great ambiance. A little noisy from the road, but overall, there’s been effort put into making this place special, which shows and can be felt! I agree with other reviews, this place is very expensive for Serbia, even for Belgrade, even for the tourist district. I had the Mayka plate, the vegetables were amazingly seasoned and plentiful! I don’t know if their setan sausage is homemade, but it was sooo delicious. Also, my server was super kind! A little slow in that it’s not American style “turn and burn” service, but he was so nice and even helped me call a taxi to a nearby town and negotiate the rate with the driver before getting in the car. Really touched and impressed by this place and the people there :)

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Vegan desserts, Soy milk coffee drinks (what a treat!)

Cons: Expensive , There’s not really an indoor area , Busyish Road.

Good vegan choices

I had a mixed platter with seitan sausages. Everything tasted really good and the staff was attentive and nice. Quite pricey for Belgrade standards though.

Great vegan food!

Great experience here. I found the waitstaff pretty friendly, though of course in a non-smothering European way. They even served me dinner my last night when they were starting to close up and we’re super non-rushing and friendly about it. I’ll come here first my next trip to Belgrade!

Regular

La comida en sí estaba bien cocinada, no demasiado original pero con muchas opciones veganas de platos vegetarianos. Lo malo es el trato con el staff, no son muy amigables ni serviciales, además los precios estan totalmente fuera de mercado para lo que es la ciudad. 27€ pagamos por 2 cervezas, un entrante y dos platos principales. Hay mejores opciones en la ciudad.

Pros: Muchas opciones veganas y bien cocinadas.

Cons: Es bastante caro.

Value

Good food huge portions. I had the Serbian sausage and the Dochola (I think) steak. Both came with bread with chickpea and pea spread and a small salad. Main also had curried veg. Waaaaay to much for one sitting so I have lunch tomorrow sorted by the looks!

Pros: Value. most of the menu can be vegan.

Too expensive for Serbia.

This was my fifth and possibly last visit to Mayka. The whole menu is overpriced for Serbia.
Burger was very dry and fries were oily. There are no prices for the juices, they use some weird weight system which I've never seen anywhere else in the world. The only good thing I have enjoyed on the menu is the curry, unfortunately I don't like eating them when the weather is hot. Very disappointed.

Pros: Curries are good, Juices are good but no set prices

Cons: Very Expensive menu, No prices for the juices, weird weight system, Dry burgers and oily fries.

Great options in the city center

Very nice food, excellent seitan. Vegetarian but many vegan options to choose from, the staff is vegan aware and the vegan options are marked clearly.

Unassuming Vegetarian restaurant

Everything is at least lacto-Ivo vegetarian, went here by accident when another restaurant nearby was closed and had some of the best meals ever. Makes great seitan fake-meats.

Vintage place and good vegan food

This place looks very nice and vintage. We felt very good during our dinner here. The music was good and the staff very friendly. We tried the falafel burger and another one with seitan and we recommend them both. Very good and fulfilling.

Pros: Good value, Location, Cosy place

something special

Definitely a must visit. Extensive menu dominantly vegan. Very interesting ideas. Really thankful to be able to try local Serbian dishes veganised.

I've seen a review criticise the owner. He's a bloody gentleman. Honest, no bulls**t person. Maybe go say hi before going full keyboard warrior.

We had a blast in Mayka

We had one of the best vegan dinners in Belgrade in this restaurant. The owner offered to suggest a selection of meals and we liked the idea. What we got was a variety of extremely tasty, all different meals, where it was hard to decide which one was better!

No so great place

It was a very strange, uncomfortable place. The vegan food lacks originality. But, more than everything is that the owner of the place is treating his stuff badly, meddling with their job and the stuff was really trying to be very polite. I do not recommend the place. It is overrated and too pricy for what you get.

Cons: The owner is pushy and meddling with stuff's work, Not comfortable, Too pricey

funky restaurant

The interior of this restaurant is amazing! We tried falafel burger slightly too deep fried, club sandwich was nice but little dry at end, mac burger was lovely, chips were little greasy, chocolate smoothie was amazing, fresh fruit juice with pomegranate was yummy, vegan brownie was good with the ganache but otherwise dry, the orange and chilli vegan cake was weird and jelly like and nice if you like chilli in a dessert!

Mayka- made with care

I spent 5 nights in Belgrade, and on 3 separate occasions dined at Mayka.. The food is great, with plenty of variety on the menu for vegans such as me, plus delicious desserts, beer and good, strong coffee; what's not to like?

The staff were friendly and helpful, and spoke excellent English (thank you!!).

If you don't like people smoking (outside), find another place. Mayka is not a hipster hangout but the food, ambiance and service are first class. The location may appear tricky to find, but once you've got your bearings, you will realise just how close it is to the main drag, Knez Mihailova. Get down there!

Thank you Mayka. You made my stay not just survivable but thoroughly enjoyable!

Pros: Try the Serbian steak! Delicious and chewy!, Delicious stir fry special, Great Mayka big mac!
