Balkan Store & Bakery

Where do I start? The food is spectacular! Their prices are amazing, the portions are huge and the service is quick! You can't ask for anything better, I am so glad this place is close to where I live and I am getting addicted to it!
Btw, their Baklava is made with Honey and walnuts, honestly the best baklava I ever tried, it comes in big portions and its price is very reasonable.

This is a wonderful eatery with a terrific selection of Bulgarian entrees and desserts (superb!) that are hard to find in St. Louis. Their grilled meats are fresh and all made from scratch; the kebapche (Bulgarian pork kebabs) is intricately spiced without being too salty, and it is so succulent that it bursts open with its rich juices the instant you take a bite . And the pastries (baklava, banitsa, tiramisu, fig and mascarpone) are great— airy, light, smooth. Sometimes their pastries have been sitting around for a while and the quality can lag depending on freshness, so weekends are probably the best time to visit

Great little place with friendly service and very inexpensive menu. We ordered lamb gyro and it was good and very large. Good fresh salad side as well.. You can sit outside or indoors. Also you can get some of your ethnic Bulgarian groceries.

Stopped in St Louis for a night. Decided to try this shop/restaurant. Glad we did. The man working there was so friendly and the food is so good! The side salad was so big my wife couldn't eat her panini so she has plenty of food for later! The ajvar dip (comes with the beef) was wonderful. The store was very interesting and nice prices. Had never tried Bulgarian food and we weren't disappointed. Thanks for the great experience!
