How we score

Our weighted 10-point Holiday Score combines Google's overall rating, review volume, and sentiment around specific topics (service, food, atmosphere, accessibility). Sub-dimension scores weight category-specific signals — for restaurants we look at food and value mentions; for hotels at cleanliness and location; for beaches at water quality and facilities. Accessibility is weighted from verified wheelchair and mobility attributes.

Scores above 8.5 represent outstanding quality. 10.0 is reserved for editorial picks.

Why we like it
We return to Piccolo Grande Amore because it does the unglamorous work of feeding Berat well. The food is unadorned and honest — moussaka, local vegetables, bread made in-house — and the setting feels lived-in rather than stage-dressed. It's the kind of neighborhood restaurant that works equally well for a solo coffee in the morning or a group dinner, and the view over the old town doesn't hurt either.
