Langouste Restoran

Trust a chef's recommendation! After the sous chef of at Homa recommended I go, I knew I was in for a treat. The service was a marvel: seamless white-glove execution paired with genuinely warm Serbian hospitality. Every single plate was remarkable, from the first amuse-bouche through to dessert. If you go, the truffle pie and the dry-aged fish are non-negotiable must-tries. This is the definition of world-class fine dining, and its Michelin star is unequivocally deserved.

I had the opportunity to dine at the first restaurant in Serbia awarded a Michelin star! The dinner was a 7-course tasting menu, paired with wine. The professionalism of both the waitstaff and the chefs was absolutely outstanding. Each dish was beautifully explained the moment it was placed in front of us - how it was created, what it consists of, the idea behind it, and how to enjoy it properly. It's truly incredible how each flavor stands out - in the harmony of all those delicate notes, you can still taste every single one individually. A big thank you to the staff for the lovely atmosphere and good service, and especially to the kitchen team for the effort and perfection poured into every single plate!

I’ve had an amazing evening with excellent food, each course of the 8 course menu had very nice, interesting and strong flavors. I liked the concept of using the local ingredients from all around Serbia. The pairing with Serbian Wines was perfect. Also the service was very good and friendly. The view over Beton Hala and the Sava is very pleasant. I will definitely recommend a visit and will return.

This was an amazing and memorable experience and I’d recommend it to anyone who wants an elevated dining experience, while also getting in touch which Serbian food culture. I loved that the staff, and even the chef, would come out to explain every dish and the role certain ingredients play in Serbian culture and traditional cuisine. I got the 8 course dinner set, but as you can see from the photos I got a lot more than 8 dishes. I celebrated my birthday here alone and the service was amazing, I really felt welcome!

Friendly atmosphere and nice food. They were really kind to us even if we wanted to change some of the dishes from their tasting menu (for example: we didn't want to eat row meat and they served as another dishes as salad). We took a picture with the chef of the restaurant and he was very friendly as well. It was a nice experience for us.

Very good restaurant I have to say. Staff is up to task, coming to greet guests and explaining every dish into very detail that goes Michelin star awarded restaurant. I haven’t visited Langouste for years. For that reason this time I ordered their tasting menu. While I enjoyed majority of the menue presented that evening, few dishes were a bit too much of explosion of different flavours, and it was excessive extravaganza for me personally. That is the only reason why I am not giving 5 star on this occasion.

Langouste is genuinely the best restaurant in Belgrade! I’ve been twice, and both times were absolutely exceptional. I was thrilled to see them earn a Michelin star, and my second visit, after they received it, felt even more special. The service, the atmosphere, and, most importantly, the food are all on another level. Their tasting meat menu is a true experience. Every course is beautifully presented, perfectly prepared, and full of incredible flavors. It’s clear why they earned their Michelin star, and I can’t recommend this place enough. A well-deserved 5-star experience!

A Fading Star? A Michelin-Starred Experience Falls Short The allure of a Michelin star is undeniable, promising not just exceptional cuisine but an impeccable dining experience. When a restaurant is newly crowned with this prestigious honor, as was the case for the establishment in question last November, the anticipation is even greater. Unfortunately, a recent visit suggests that this particular star may be losing its luster. The tasting menu, a showcase of the kitchen’s artistry, was a solid performance. Dishes were well-executed and technically proficient, demonstrating a clear understanding of flavor and texture. However, the meal lacked a certain spark—that "wow" factor that separates the merely good from the truly memorable. The food was good, but it didn't transcend; it failed to leave a lasting impression. The service, an equally important component of a fine dining experience, was a study in contradictions. While the waitstaff's frequent, almost performative inquiries of "I hope you like our service" felt a bit strange, it was the glaring oversights that truly soured the evening. A simple request—a candle for a friend's birthday dessert, confirmed in advance—was completely forgotten, a bewildering lapse for a restaurant of this caliber. Adding to the list of missteps were several surprising and frankly, unprofessional, choices. The restaurant charged for bread and butter without any prior notification, a practice almost unheard of in the world of Michelin-starred dining. The stingy pour of wine for a single glass was another detail that, while small, speaks to a broader lack of generosity. The most baffling moment, however, came at the end of the evening. After the bill was paid and the desserts had been cleared, the chef came out to greet the tables. He stopped at ours and, with a smile, said, "Happy birthday!" This final, ironic gesture was the ultimate confirmation that the message had, in fact, been received by the kitchen. The birthday was known, yet the simple request for a candle was still forgotten. It’s a stunning example of a disconnect between the front of the house and the kitchen, a symptom of management that seems to have its priorities misplaced. Ultimately, the food was a saving grace, but the overall experience was a letdown. A one-star rating is a hard-earned achievement, a testament to culinary excellence and an expectation of flawless execution. If this restaurant hopes to maintain its place among the gastronomic elite, it needs to work much harder to ensure that its service and attention to detail match the quality of what comes out of its kitchen. Otherwise, that shining star might be at risk of burning out.
