About

Janko’s Little Zagreb has become one of Bloomington’s finest dining traditions and one of the best steakhouses in the Midwest. Perfect for large groups as well as small intimate celebrations, Janko’s (pronounced yawn-koes) has been providing exceptional food and service in a casual, family friendly atmosphere for more than 40 years!

Established in 1973, Janko’s Little Zagreb was at first named the “Choo-Choo Cafe.” Originally serving Yugoslavian and Eastern European cuisine, over time, our focus shifted to what we’ve become renowned for today – the finest steaks in Bloomington.

Come enjoy our famous spicy meatballs or one of our USDA Choice steaks, hand cut daily and grilled to perfection. We also have delicious seafood entrees as well as vegetarian options available.

Find the perfect wine pairing for your meal from Janko’s extensive bottled wine list. We have over 100 wines by the bottle and more than a dozen house wines by the glass to choose from. Also ask about our fantastic wine specials, sold exclusively by the glass here.
