The story
Restoran Corso Ancora in Belgrade approaches Serbian cooking as a deliberate exploration rather than a routine meal. Located along the Sava quay, the team sources produce directly from regional micro-farms to maintain an organic foundation. Their menus weave traditional Balkan techniques with subtle Asian undertones, creating a distinctive Serbian-Asian fusion kitchen. This commitment to ingredient quality earned a score of thirteen from Gault&Millau in their 2026 guide.
Guests frequently order the reimagined burek, which layers kajmak, Sjenica cheese, wild garlic, and sun-dried tomatoes for a balanced savory profile. The pollo e zucchini combines sous-vide poultry with a crisp kulen crust and a light champagne reduction. For sweets, the Ancora dessert finishes the meal with white chocolate and artisanal salted caramel. These plates reflect a willingness to treat familiar Serbian staples as canvases for modern technique.
Modern interiors feature subtle nautical touches that complement the open layout facing the water. Patrons can navigate the wine list featuring roughly 160 labels alongside thirty-seven pour options. The gin and tonic program expands further with twenty varieties sourced from Japan to Spain. Attentive staff guide visitors through both the seasonal set menus and the extended a la carte offerings.
