“ Delicious classic Albanian sandwiches! ”
“ This Albanian cafe is lovely. The staff is friendly, and the chicken soup with 9 vegetables is real food to sustain you. I left feeling nourished and pleased that it was so well priced, considering the quality. My only regret was that the music was a little loud, but it seemed to keep the staff and cooks happy, so I can understand that. All in all, this place is a gem, and I definitely look forward to going back. ”

“ The waitress is very nice. She is on point with assisting with food and recommendations. Just go meat, meat, and meat! ”
“ Amazing food so delicious. We came here for first time and tried the shepard salad, burek, chicken soup ans qofte. Everything was soooo delicious and fresh. ”
“ The burek stole the show although it may seem expected many locations I’ve had mess burek up. I wish I lived closer to them I’d get the burek everyday. I loved the shredded feta on the salad I’ve never seen that before and it gave a unique touch to the salad and inspired me to love feta even more than I already did. Overall this was a great meal and worth a try especially if you’ve never had Albanian food before. ”
“ First time trying Albanian food and not disappointed! Staffs are friendly, atmosphere is cozy and food is pretty good too (plus lots of bread as appetizers :) ”
“ Absolutely fantastic Albanian dishes. Tasted just like the many home cooked dishes I've enjoyed in Prishtina. The burek and speca me maze were our favorites! Faleminderit shum! ”
