Why we like it
We keep coming back for the view — and the fact that they've managed to make it feel like a neighborhood spot rather than a tourist trap. The food is straightforward and local, the drinks list takes Albanian spirits seriously, and the terrace is the kind of place where an hour becomes three hours without you noticing.
