Cruchy, juicy and fresh. Olimpija

Aug 2020 • none

Cruchy, juicy and fresh. Olimpija burek will take you on a so called "taste adventure". I wish for everyone in the world could taste the famous pizza burek from Olimpija. God bless this dish! Gordon Ramsay would lick his fingers all week long, after tasting it. Love it. Not to mention in foreign countries you would pay at least 5€ for this kind of burek, but in Olimpija it costs only 2€.

Fresh, Quick and Delicious

Oct 2023 • couples

Was in the area and had heard from a friend that they had the best Burek. I have not had a lot of Burek, but now I plan to have more! My only problem is I will expect other places to be as good as this one and that will probably not be the case. This was an outdoor fast food serving style establishment, service was quick, they had several different kinds of Burek to choose from, and the food was delicious and reasonably priced. It is probably good that I do not live near this place or I would spend all my money on their Burek!

Truly the BEST!

Jan 2020 • friends

Perfect comfort food after a night out with friends or after you’ve had a really long day. Burek Olimpija is location-wise, time-wise and burek-wise the perfect place to just relax, unwind and treat yourself. The greasy, but amazing burek is everything you need! 15/10 will visit again really soon😊!

solid stuff!

Oct 2022 • none

Curiosity dragged us to the Olimpija on a walk through Ljubljana. We ate an enormous potato burek which was a seriously solid chunk of tasty pastry. If you're hungry, don't hesitate, just go and guzzle, anytime of the day or night, it's open 24/7.

Joint-favourite burek of the trip!

Oct 2022 • none

This was the first burek we had on our trip and it turned out to be one of the absolute best. I had never tried pizza burek before but I don't think I am likely to ever find one to top (no pun intended) this one. Really tastes like they use quality ingredients but they still manage to keep the prices down.

Heavenly delicious

Aug 2020 • none

OMG, This Burek just melts in your mouth. My favorite is the cheese one, but this completely depends on a personal preference. The taste won't disappoint, no matter which one you choose. A must stop in Ljubljana for lunch or dinner. #hungryformore

a famous fast food place

May 2023 • solo

The Olimpija Burek, exisiting since 1979, seems to be quite a well known place in Ljubljana. Coming from the not far away railway and bus station I decided to give it a try for a snack. The location in a nondescript side street is rather unattractive, so is the fast food place itself, with not much of seating available. The man in charge was not overly friendly and told me that the Pizza Burek had run out (according to the guidebooks the one most in demand). Instead I went for a Potato Burek, which also had spring onions in it. It was tasty, but too oily for my taste. Thinking about it I was surprised how popular in Slovenia the 'Burek' is, which I know mainly from Turkey and other countries, that once had been part of the Ottoman Empire. And to which Slovenia never belonged. Also 'Bureks' are not be found - except in Turkish restaurants - in all the neighboring Alpine countries.

A tasty snack!

Aug 2023 • solo

I visited the restaurant twice. First for the cheese burek then for the meat burek. Both were delicious and satisfying. The serving portion is sufficient for a hefty snack. On my first visit the service was ok, but not memorable. On the second visit the young man working on this day was much more welcoming. In comparison to the place around the corner, where I also tried cheese and meat bureks, the cheese burek at Olimpija was just slightly tastier in my humble opinion. There is no indoor dining but there is a shaded counter to stand and enjoy your food.

excellent food, excellent service, good price, variety of burek flavors

Dec 2023 • family

My daughter celebrated her 18th birthday and Burek Olimpja provided an unforgettable feast. 70 young people were delighted with the meat and cheese bureks. We picked up the bureks in the center of Ljubljana, for such a large quantity (60 pieces) the service was extremely fast, and the staff were friendly and helpful despite the late hour. A truly excellent experience that I can wholeheartedly recommend. Burek Olimpiija is the best burek in Ljubljana!

Afternoon burek

Apr 2024 • friends

This is no doubt the Best burek here around! It is tasty, chewy, perfectly greasy and a great size for an afternoon meal. I ordered the original meat burek but they have a variety of choices (meat spinach, pizza, cottage cheese burek, pizza and spaghetti also). Not forget to mention that the staff has great energy and you get your orders fast.

Great traditional burek on the go

Apr 2022 • solo

Great burek! If you want the traditional burek expirience try the meat or cheese one and pair it with a plain jogurt. They are both delicious. You also never wait very long here, fast and friendly staff.

Quick, cheap and delicious

Sep 2022 • solo

Burek Olimpija is a staple of the Ljubljana food scene. The burek is always fresh and it never seems to disappoint. It's a great bite any time you're hungry but it's definitely the best for the late night cravings. The price is amazing for the quality and this has to be the go to stop for anyone in Ljubljana.

The best place for fast food in Ljubljana!

Mar 2023 • friends

Definitely the best place for fast food in Ljubljana (and beyond). The employees are always friendly, friendly and hospitable. The food is always fresh, warm and prepared from the heart. I highly recommend that everyone who travels to Ljubljana try as many things as possible from the menu. This is also a favorite place for students.

best burek in Ljubljana

Nov 2023 • friends

The best burek in town! Hands down the only burek place I like going to. The meat burek here is the best, because it's full of stuffing and not half empty like some others. Not too greasy, not to dry. Just perfect. Other types of burek are also nice.
