Living in Serbia has completely transformed how I view food—it’s no longer just about eating, it’s about connection, experience, and enjoying life.
In this video, I share my visit to EATALIA, an incredible Italian restaurant and grocery shop located in the heart of Dorćol, Belgrade. I had the pleasure of sitting down with Mia, the daughter of the owners, who shared the history of her family’s restaurant—the first Italian restaurant in Serbia!
Mia gave me a tour of the shop, explained how all the groceries are imported directly from Italy, and selected the most amazing dishes for us to enjoy. We spent over an hour bonding over food, talking about life in Belgrade, and sharing stories. I left feeling like I’d made a new friend and gained a deeper appreciation for the dining culture here in Serbia.
While editing, I realized part of the footage had no audio due to a microphone issue, but I’ve included highlights of the food and our time together. If you’re visiting or moving to Serbia, EATALIA in Dorćol is a must-visit spot for its authentic Italian flavors and the warm hospitality of its owners.
If you’re planning to move to Serbia, start a business, or buy property, I offer scouting services to help you settle in and connect with the local community.
Feel free to reach out and let’s build something amazing together!

When I get there this summer and I feel like "Italian" – I know where to go!
I was just looking at the restaurants in the area via Google Maps after seeing YT foodies visiting Belgrade eateries. I jotted down a few spots I would like to visit after I arrive on Feb 3. There was a restaurant that served Goulash which I love, and they placed it in a big bun in the shape of a sourdough bread. Glad this place you're showing (was on map) has a store for food items as I plan to look for a place in Dorcol or the center and have somewhere to buy what I need when I feel like eating Italian. But that will be a while since I've been in Italy for almost 2 years and am ready to move on. Right now all I prefer is meat, gravy, and potatoes.
Che fai di bella? Il cibo italiano è fantastico
Lol I thought vitrina is a Serbian word, looks like I was very wrong 😅
Oh my goodness! 😍 My two favorite cultures and countries: Serbia and Italy! 🥰🥰🥰 Does the restaurant have a page I could follow? I don't live in Serbia. I couldn't find them on FB or IG.
