"Ćevabdžinica Željo is a legend when it comes to Sarajevski ćevap and is one of the most iconic places to eat in Sarajevo. It has 3 locations in the Old Town and all of them are usually completely full. My advice is to go to the original one and wait in line because it is totally worth the experience. I usually have a skeptical approach when it comes to such touristic spots as this one but despite its popularity, Željo has maintained the authentic busy vibe of classic ćevabdžinica and excellent quality. It is hard to just pass it by without noticing because of the crowds and the amazing smell of grilled meat. The ćevapi itself is of course prepared in the most traditional way, served with a very creamy kajmak which melts in your mouth, raw onion, and somun. The meat has the desirable flavour of the grill which is not always the case with ćevapi. I would suggest getting a glass of kiselo mleko (sour milk) as it completes the experience in Željo."
