Project 72

Top choice in Novi Sad


This smart bistro with lovely sidewalk seating is brought to Novi Sad by the same owners as the excellent Fish i Zeleniš, but here the concentration is on creative tapas and heartier, Mediterranean/Serbian meat dishes, which pair wonderfully with the deep wine list featuring 21 Serbian wines by the glass.

Standout dishes include oxtail with celery puree and sweet bermet dessert wine; wild boar with orange and red fruits; and lamb with blanched broccoli. At least 80% of the produce used is organic.
