Viva Ksantika kaj Tanja

Great authentic macedonian dishes. Staff members are kind and helpful. We tried lamb liver, grape leaf sarma, musaka, local beer, wine and rakija. If you only have a few hours in this charming city, this is the place you want to eat to experience it all.

By far the best food in Ohrid. Already been there twice but sure we’ll be back soon while we’re in Ohrid. So far we’ve had sauerkraut sarma, grilled ohrid trout, tavče gravče, and macedonian burger. Everything we had was delicious. We’re not big eaters but we finished all the dishes every time 😋 Beer is served super cold, service is great and their homemade bread is not to be missed. Definitely give them a try!

Very delicious traditionally food! We came here twice. I highly recommend the "Sauerkraut Sarma" and select the sour cream instead of the bacon. And as side dish the homemade bread. The kebab (mici/cevapcici) was good but not so well seasoned like the sarma. On the last picture are the stuffed peppers which were also very tasty.

A great place to try local food. We had a very positive experience here: the food was really tasty, and we received excellent service from the staff. The atmosphere is welcoming. An important point to note is that they do not accept credit cards, so it's essential to bring cash to pay the bill. Other than that detail, we recommend the visit.

A nice place with tasty food. Unfortunately, the waiters were not very friendly — they seemed very tired and had no energy for the customers, they didn’t even make eye contact. The dishes were tasty, but the chicken schnitzel was way too salty. Overall, we liked the place. Note that you can only pay in cash, and playing cards is not allowed

BEST MACEDONIAN FOOD!!! 100% tastes like grandmas food. Can’t wait to come back. Try: Turli Tava, Tavce Gravce, peppers & tomatoes baked with cheese - all vegetarian/vegan & 10/10 taste! Also eat Trilece as dessert, it’s soooo good! Every detail was awesome, the best water brand in a glass bottle, olives, vegetables, dessert, warm homemade bread - everything was so fresh and perfect. Every local & tourist needs to try this! Truly a hidden gem in Ohrid!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If you’re visiting Ohrid, **Viva Ksantika** is a must! The atmosphere is lively and authentic, the service is outstanding, and the staff make you feel like family. The food is absolutely amazing – we tried pljeskavica, sesame-crusted chicken, selsko meso, and lamb liver, and every dish was bursting with flavor. We first came here in 2018 and returned now, and the quality is still perfect – even better than we remembered. This place captures the true spirit of Macedonian hospitality and cuisine. Highly recommended for anyone who wants an unforgettable dining experience in Ohrid!

Sat outside on a lovely day and watched the world go by whilst enjoying the cold sandwich that came with chips & a cold beer. Nice friendly service & a very reasonable price. They take payment in Euros if required. Highly recommended.
