Refined
taste asks
for a refined experience.

Situated in the iconic ‘Geozavod’ edifice in the very heart of Belgrade’s old town, Salon 1905 offers a truly one-of-a-kind fine dining experience.

The turn-of-the-century landmark building is a masterpiece of mixed Baroque and Art Nouveau architecture, with a spectacular interior wrapped in glistening brass, marble and gold.

Our locally-sourced, slow cooked pork leg smoked on beech wood is back on the menu, along with a “Welcome to Serbia” six-course special and a number of premium additions sending your tastebuds to heaven and back. We recommend you book your table in advance.
Welcome!

Head chef

After several years of honing his skills in restaurants in Mediterranean Italy and Greece, David Simunic returned to Serbia, bringing talent and experience to the table. A former Architecture student, he combines his love for art and creativity with the passion for great food, letting the ideas of craftsmanship and engineering be his guiding principles inside the kitchen. Since becoming Salon 1905’s head chef, David has been reinventing the Belgrade fine dining experience, time and again, focusing on Serbian traditional gourmet recipes that bear his signature touch.

Restaurant & Bar

You step inside the breathtaking building reminiscent of the finest Viennese and Parisian traditions, and you immediately feel at home. With all the opulence inside 1905, there is a sense of cosiness and intimacy to it, and the style is tasteful and refined. Just like our food. If you’re looking to unwind after your dinner, our massive oak bar makes an ideal spot for a late night chill. Open until 2 a.m.

Wine

Our wine list is a story that guides you through the geographical history of the Serbian region. Each bottle is hand picked to pair our menu or compliment a certain dish. The same goes for the international part of our list. French, Italian and New World wines are carefully selected to fulfil our guests’ high expectations. We love what we do and we do it with care, striving for excellence every part of the way.

Music

Spice up your weekend night-out with the smoothest jazz in town. Every Friday evening we got solo jazz piano accompaniment, Keith Jarret style, while on Saturday nights, our live trio (upright bass, drums and piano) takes you through a classy selection of standards, from Django to Chet, to keep your evening in full swing.

Serbian finest

Serbian cuisine is a dynamic fusion of different cultures that reflect the country’s rich heritage, which makes it ideal for creative innovations. With a premium selection of organic ingredients, our brand new tasting menu is made to evoke the authentic flavour of long forgotten times, reinventing traditional Balkan dinner staples in an eclectic mix of unique palates, aromas and textures. Serbian finest.

Our winter tale opens with a selection of starters – veal aspic with domestic sour cabbage and paprika gel, just for a tickle. We want you to feel at home – that sweet Serbian home.

After all, you’re here for a slice of the traditional local cuisine, so look no further than gibanica, the cheese pie that’s been gracing the tables of every Serbian household for centuries now. Ours is made using only first class ingredients: homemade crusts and cow cheese from the Golija mountain valley, served with a sauce made of paprika and kajmak – Balkan’s creamy, self-indulgent version of the clotted cheese.

You may have heard of the Serbian sarma, the famous cabbage roll dish. We dare to say this sarma is unlike any other, tucked underneath ajvar paper and gently dipped in horseradish sauce, evoking the scents of a warm home on a cold winter day.

It’s time for podvarak, the dish that marks every Serbian family gathering in the winter time. We’re proud of our own special recipe - baked sour cabbage with duck meat, served in a roll, with fresh beer foam on top.

This finger-licking adventure wouldn’t be complete without mućkalica. Premium veal steak cuts sunk into a mouthwatering gravy with organic vegetables: your one-way ticket to food paradise.

Sweeten your dining experience with our version of bajadera, a traditional regional delicacy seen at Serbian family kitchen tables every winter.
