The Grbic family, immigrants from Bosnia, lovingly restored an old dairy to start this restaurant---a move that helped the business hurdle all kinds of cultural barriers. The fare, described as eclectic Eastern European, is heavily Bosnian, with influences of Germany (schnitzel) and Italy (tiramisu). Specialties include sarma, beef and rice wrapped in cabbage leaves, and cevapi, spicy Bosnian grilled sausage. And there is goulash, good enough to make diners groan with delight. The fluctuating wine selection has an occasional high-quality surprise. In many ways, Grbic is a throwback to an earlier South St. Louis, when European culture and generous platters of food were a given. Service can be erratic, even slow---which can be seen by the generous diner as endearing---but the welcome is always warm.
