Baba Cana Vodno in Skopje

Very nice traditional restaurant, authentic atmosphere, good food and very low prices.

Large pleasant garden and sufficient vegetarian options

Tasty, traditional and calm. I would advise to have lunch there for any one staying at Hi Skopje hostel nearby :)The service was fast and you will be able to take leftovers with you if you didn’t manage to finish!

Great meat dishes. Salads are nice too. The interior is etno-like. Nice garden, they also have a rooftop like sitting option. Reservations are a must, especially on the second half of the week and parking is troublesome.

Nice view, with traditional food

Its ok place, you need to like old arhitecture

Very good and tasty food. Very good service. Parking is a problem

I loved the typical macedonian atmosphere. The host was entertaing us and he suggest us the very best food and drinks. Delicious food and great service dont hesitate to visit.

Came here twice. First time everything was good. Second time arrived at 12:30, but they told me they’re still closed (stated opening time is 12:00, both here on Google and on the sign that’s on their door).This is really not OK. Especially since the restaurant is located away from the city center. So I had to make my way there just to find out they are unable to open on time.Unprofessional.

Excellent view, traditional homemade food and snacks, great service...

Great staff, great food selection, okay prices and fun atmosphere. Often there are live musicians and the atmosphere can get out of hand in a positive way

My best and favourite restaurant in Skopje and Macedonia in general. Very versatile menu with tasty and healthy prepared food, nice and authentic atmosphere. Definitely the best!

Probably the best place for grilled stuff in Macedonia... The shashlik was good, the kabab were really nice and the bread with cheese was very rich... the service was also very good... highly recommended...

They added food to our bill that we didnt order, we ordered a mix of vegetables and cheese, which means just a little from everything, and we got a little from everything, but for example we got 6 circles of eggplant and we paid as a whole portion of eggplant and so on for every thing that was on the mixed vegetables portion. They served us mushrooms which are the cheapest but they charged us for the most expensive ones. I am never going to this place again. Shame on u...

The food is absolutely amazing!

Delicious food , great personnel, very fast time of delivering food from order time. Cozy place with Macedonian spirit.

Beautiful traditional restaurant perched up on the hill overlooking Skopje.Recommended by our local friend, we were really looking forward to catching up and enjoying traditional food.The outdoor dining space in the garden was a true oasis, with the added bonus of air-conditioning to keep you comfortable.Recommend to book, as this is a popular restaurant for private functions and amongst the locals.We were fortunate to be dining during a birthday and were entertained by a four-piece band, which truly made the atmosphere magical.We started out with a mixed platter and Shopska salad and ordered our slow-cooked mixed grill, which was going to take 50 minutes which was perfect. Unfortunately, 90 minutes later we were still waiting on this delicious dish and checked in with our new waiter (shifts had changed), and the order was forgotten.We were very disappointed after ordering a special bottle of wine, to then find out our food was not going to arrive. After a 90 minute wait, we decided to skip the meal and headed to our favourite Mosh Bar to satisfy our appetites.

I do not recommend it. They give an impression of an elite restaurant, but in essence the service is low. The waiters take a lot of freedom and do not know how to deal with customers. The food is bad and cold. They try a cliche ‘funny’ and indecent relation with the customers.

Very pleasant atmosphere, and the food is excellent they aim actually to serve you and make you try genuine dishes and its not like other places that they will try just to take your money, very professional staff

Fascinated, food is totally awesome make on old traditional way.So tasty, perfect place without any doubt!!Not so expensive, but peoples is so kind so so guest friendly, any any pieces of food is make by them.

Nice restaurant in the heart of Vodno. The food ia good and the prices are affordable. The staff is very welcoming.

Such a cute little family restaurants. They had outdoor seats for non smokers, so its nice to breath fresh air while enjoying dinner.We got this massive meat mixed plate. the portion was very generous, It was so delicious!Macedonian food is lovely!

Awesome food. Fresh and great quality. The beef in red wine was unbelievable delicious. I never had anything like it. If you are in Skopje and want to try authentic food its definitely a must.

Best place for traditional dishes in the city. Excellent food, friendly staff and reasonable prices.

Well, excellent service and excellent food. A good choice for local cuisine. Be prepared for tight parking space or arrive by taxi.

Great place for having a great time with friends.MACEDONIANtraditional food,ambient,music,cultureand cuisine.

Best food in town.Great for lunch and dinner. The downside is that if you are here for the party you will be in separate rooms wich is not great

Waiters were very friendly, they have live music, the food was okay but their menu is very poor. They dont have anything (deepfried, but overall a nice experience.

Nice garden, authentic Kumanovo kitchen

Horrible service, horrible food, horrible place! We asked for a recomendation from the waitress of something traditional, she just started reading items in order from the menu. The chicken was not real meat, but some sort of pressed junk! The lemonade they brought was just water with lemon concentrate and they charged it as "fresh juice". Charlatans lying to tourists! Avoid this place! Please notice the plate they brought, "nice" touch! 🤮🤮🤮

Its a bit of a long walk from the center of the city. But every step taken towards Baba Cana Vodno is worth it. A warm welcome, excellent service. Also the food is great.

Been there first time few months ago. Service was terrible, 20 minutes waiting for them to bring the menu, 20 minutes waiting to bring the drinks. Then we waited almost 1 hour for them to bring the main course and it came cold!Food is average. The only nice thing there is the view.

From all the restaurants we tried in Skopje, this was the best in our opinion. They have great traditional food and the staff is very friendly and helpful. They advised us about the food and did not let us buy as much as we would want before knowing the portions sizes. Even so, we could hardly eat the food we ordered, because it was too much. We ate it just because it was excellent.

Great food in a nice and relaxing place.

Terrible service, the waiters brought dishes we ordered twice, by mistake. Food was not that good and even though all our mains had potatoes, they grouped all the mains on a plate and brought several pieces of potatoes only. Then, at the end we were charged big salads instead of small, which we ordered. I would never come back to this restaurant.

Authentic, tasty food for a really low price for such big portions. Their small "Shopska" salad costs almost half price of that you will pay on Bohemska, but its size is comparative.It is in a strange location where you would not expect a restaurant. Thanks to this, it is not a typical tourist place and a lot of local residents there. Often you can participate in some events which are held there. The big advantage of this place is the quiet garden and the terrace, from which you can see a magnificent view of the city.Food is well seasoned. You should definitely try their wines - which are also quite cheap - ca. 10EUR.They sometimes have got problem with their terminal so no always you were be able to pay by a card.

great restaurant: excellent food, huge portions (don´t order too much, start with a small order and add on something later on if necessary), nice place both inside and outside in the garden. many local guests, mostly well to do people.

Great Macedonian cuisine: food is really good and portions are really big. They would rather suggest you to put everything in the middle and share it with everyone, as the tradition says. Wines are amazing, both red and white. They accommodated us on the terrace outside, on the first floor and on that night we even had traditional live music. Rather cheap: absolutely recommended for a real Macedonian experience!

Absolutely amazing! Staff is so nice, they are all the time taking care of you so you have the best experience of Macedonias traditional cuisine. The place itself is great, its like a house of food, you can easily feel like home. If interested you can get to know about tradition and some fun facts from the staff. I definitely recommend to taste meals de la casa, stakes are delicious. Only minus is that portions are quite big and when you like to taste some different meals you need to prepare yourself for loosening your belt.

Excellent food and atmosphere. This venue is equally great for an intimate dinner or a family party. Live music adds a personal touch to your evening. Thoroughly enjoyable evening

Very cozy rentaraunt in peaceful area out of the city. Service was very good. There is cheap menu and lot of wine options. This place is good to long relaxed dinner.Meat was tasty but the the dish plain. Salad was mainly a raw onion on top of the lettuce.

Very good service and really tasty food! One of the best salad. Worth to place a visit. We were sitting on the terrace and also the view was very nice.

In Skopje Baba Cana was opened in 2014 and is located on Vodno. There is a wonderful view of the city of Skopje depending on where you are sitting. The capacity is about 180 out of which 80 for the outside and 100 for the inside. Every day they have live music, but the parking is only for 5 vehicles and the rest will have to get out on the street.

Read the offtopic negative review of @Zoran_Spikovski, and decided to check the place. Probably the management does not want to advertise the place, but it doesnt mean they are not professional.The food was delicius, especially the Kumanovo mince meat. Shopska salad and potatoe side dish was excellent also.Environment is relaxing.Card us accepted.

Called them to talk about helping them register their business with Google maps. First an employee called, and he was nice and connected me with the manager. Then things turned nasty. I explained that they are missing out on opportunities to communicate with the wider public and the person said that they are not interested.I investigated if they are the owner or not, to which they said “no I am not”. I said that they are not able to tell me how interested or not the business is, and asked for him to share the owner’s number with me, and tell me when it’s the best time to call them tomorrow.The manager just hung up. I felt offended by the rudeness, and I don’t feel that I need to go there and check whether I will have a nice experience or not. I am sure I will not have a good experience there with that sad state of management.

What an amazing find. This place was full on a Tuesday evening with local people. It serves Macedonian food and the waiter helped guide our choices. There are great views from the top terrace over Skopje. Its a bit rustic and tucked down a side street yet it was so busy. Spectacular value. Our meal for 3 was 2000MKD of which 800 was wine.

Good place for traditional Macedonian meals . Make sure you call to make a reservation especially on the weekends. A minus is the lack of parking space (it is very small )

The restaurant is located in a side street up in Vodno and finding it is quite a fun adventure 🤗 Great to visit at night for late dinner when the breeze is perfect. Salads and meze are great. For bbq lovers this is okay but other places have even better bbq in Skopje

Always a pleasant experience. Good food, with great service - the staff is kind and welcoming. With live music - chalgia. The parking space is limited to 4-6 cars.

Great place to eat national dishes,I would recommend the Baba Cana salad
