    (Translated by Google) A worthy establishment, beautiful to look at from the outside and from the inside ... The decoration and the kitchen are excellent. But there is a couple, but ... The first, the waiters smoked a meter from my table, it somewhat interfered with the taste ... Second, they added water that I did not order. I didn't leave a tip ... Now about the veal liver in mustard, wine and with juniper. This is something! Recomend for everybody!!! The wine is normal, but the price is 250 Leks per glass. On average in the market from 100 to 200 leks ... Decide for yourself whether to go or not ... I enjoyed it (Original) Достойное заведение, красивое на вид снаружи и изнутри... Убранство и кухня на высоте. Но есть пара но... Первое официанты курили в метре от моего столика, это несколько мешало насладиться вкусом.... Второе, в счёт поставили воду, которую я не заказывал. Чаевых не оставил... Теперь про телячью печень в горчице, вине и с можжевельником. Это нечто! Рекомендую всем!!! Вино нормальное, но цена 250 лек за бокал. В среднем по рынку от 100 до 200 лек... Решайте сами, идти или нет... Я получил удовольствие

    This might be my favourite restaurant in the world… The dishes are simply too good. The entrees are so good we came back the next day and didn’t even get a main we just wanted to try all the entrees. The staff are nice, the ambience is great and the food is next level. They’ve been around for a while and you can see why. Fantastic restaurant for very fair prices. Please go here.

  • 5/5 Nicolas O. 4 years ago on Google
    Very good ambience, though it does come across as rather cliched to cynical British eyes. The food was excellent and as it was a group banquet, was also copious. Wine was palatable, beer cold. Therefore, 5 🌟

    There were so many items on the menu and the environment was just great. Ordered a lot of items off the menu and all of them were decent some items were better than others. The " Red Sisters " the stuffed red peppers were great. The " Cofiel Salad " was super tasty, it had sour cream, black beans, cucumber, tomatoes, and some sort of a honey mustard dressing on it. We also ordered the " Four Seasons " the bread and the 4 dips, it wasn't as great as I expected it to be.

  • 5/5 Livingalbania Tours and T. 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) I was a few months ago in the Korca area for scouting for my tour operator. Our clientele is demanding and wants excellent restaurants and good food. Here I found myself well, nothing to complain about, some small burrs that are there when there are many people. The restaurant is very characteristic, it seems to be a bit in a junk shop, but nice and welcoming. We had a good lunch and served well. The meat is very good and well cooked, the price / quality ratio is there. The only thing to review in my opinion is the menu card which is not exhaustive as the place deserves, better redo it also with subdivisions of the courses based on atipatsi, first, second, side dishes etc. and above all on a single sheet that is easy to consult and attentive to how you call the courses because there are some errors that can be discussed with the customer. (Original) Sono stato pochi mesi fa nella zona di Korca per scouting per il mio tour operator. La nostra clientela è esigente e vuole ottimi locali e mangiare bene. Qui mi sono trovato bene, nulla da eccepire, qualche piccola sbavatura che ci sta quando c'è molta gente. Il locale è molto caratteristico, sembra di essere un po' in un negozio di un rigattiere, ma simpatico ed accogliente. Abbiamo ben pranzato e serviti bene. La carne molto buona e ben cucinata, il rapporto prezzo qualità ci sta. Unica cosa da rivedere a mio avviso la carta del menù che non è esaustiva come merita il posto, meglio rifarla anche con suddivisioni delle portate in base ad atipatsi, primi, secondi, contorni etc. e sopratutto su unico foglio di facile consultazione e attenti anche a come chiamate le portate perchè ci sono alcuni errori che possono essere oggetto di discussione con il cliente.

    Great traditional Albanian food, wonderful service, and a cosy authentic atmosphere. The rabbit is delicious and they kindly did a plate of grilled veggies for us, which wasn’t even on the menu. Their Albanian ‘tarta’ are to die for - ultimately fresh baked cheese tarts with meat mixed in. Be warned: they are very heavy and may fill you up if they come before your main meal!

    I felt extremely well here. The cocktails were great, especially the Pina Colada was heavenly. Also the prices, for me as a foreigner were very accessible. I plan to come again here to spend more time. I recommend it for the best cocktails in town.

    I was very upset last Night as they Had to Remove one of our tables to offer it to someone Else. We were drinking bottles of wines but we had do get up in the middle of dinner from there because we didn‘t had any room left in the table where to put the orders. I come in Korce few times in a year and I will Never come back at this place.

  • 5/5 Marissa F. 3 months ago on Google New
    This restaurant is one of the best in Korca, if not THE best. I shared: stuffed red peppers, a cofiel signature salad (Mexican style), pita and sauces (babganoush, beet humus, tsaziki, cottage cheese) and delicious meatballs. The food is hearty, yummy, and homemade. The meatballs were spiced beautifully. Even with wine, the bill was very reasonable. I appreciate the young waiter who speaks English!

    Went there because of "davidsbeenhere" a youtuber who made a vlog about the place.It is a very nice house with a great ambiance.They had nice live music and everybody was very friendly. I expected a bit more from the food to be honest ........but they gave us some Rakia to try the different types. So if you are in Korce you should check it out

  • 5/5 Bertrand De B. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing diner in Vila Cofiel ! In a great terrasse with very friendly staff. Food was amazing (best food of our 3 weeks trip in Albania). We had the Cofiel Salad (a classic salad with à pie nest and black beans), very fresh, savoury and tasty dressing. Then the "Réd Sisters" red pepper stuffed with cheese and honey (very tasty and different of the classic stuffed pepper you find in Albania). The grand-ma meatballs were great, à bit spicy, soft and flavourful. And at last the grilled pork with balsamic sauce (with coriander seeds) very original, could be à love/hate dish depending your taste. Servings are big, prices very fair. Wine was good for the price. And the raki choices are amazing. A must go

  • 5/5 Doris P. 1 year ago on Google
    Firstly, the ambience was relaxing and very comfortable. The food was excellent. The ‘Pllaqi’ dish is mouth-watering! Reasonable prices that add to the reasons of making this place totally recommended! The meal was also accompanied with ‘serenata’ which are traditional songs of Korca.

    We went on a weekday. And the setting was beautiful and cosy. The atmosphere is definitely very nice. The food overall was good but there was a lot of fat in the meat. I have had a lot better food in some other places in Korca. Also some items on the menu are not available. Service was good and fast. They gave us some raki at the end which was really nice.

  • 1/5 Priscilla 3 months ago on Google New
    I do not recommend this restaurant, it's a shame that this is considered one of the best restaurants in Albania when Albania has much more to offer than this restaurant.. This place charges tourist prices (about 30 euros per person). As a traveller born, raised and living in The Netherlands, the prices were not much different than in The Hague, and for that price I would have expected much more. The waiter was not helpful. The food was mediocre, the flavors were not balanced. Had far better experiences at other places for a much better price. I'm highly disappointed with the experience and I would not waste my time going here.

  • 5/5 Benjamin R. 3 years ago on Google
    Cofiel is a magnificently designed restaurant with an outdoor deck filled with greenery, fresh air and light. The food is exquisite. The fried white cheese with honey was divine. The veal was stupendously cooked. The "four sauces" are all expertly made. I highly recomend asking for oven potatoes with cheese. The big beans in tomato sauce were the best I've ever had. This was one of the greatest meals I've had in Albania. About 15USD per person, including wine and raki. Can't be beat!

    (Translated by Google) Unfortunately, unlike the reviews I read, I have to say that we ate quite badly.We were in a group and we asked for traditional dishes.Being quite accustomed to local food I can confirm that the dishes were not good some seemed heated and moreover they brought us 6 qofte (we were 8 people) ..... they were finished ... beyond the fact that I find it crazy that a restaurant in Korca runs out of qofte and the ones that arrived were dry, hard and very salty ..... the worst that I have eaten in 12 years that I frequent Albania. Food apart from the restaurant is nice with historical decor and certainly typical for the area. Too bad ... we trusted the reviews completely different from those we have experienced in person. we were unlucky but for what we ate I just can't recommend it ..... badly eaten. (Original) Purtroppo a differenza delle recensioni che leggo devo dire che abbiamo mangiato piuttosto male.Eravamo in gruppo e abbiamo chiesto piatti tradizionali.Essendo oramai piuttosto abituato al cibo del territorio posso confermare che le.pietanze non erano buone alcune sembravano riscaldate e oltretutto ci hanno portato 6 qofte( eravamo 8 persone).....erano finite...al di la del fatto che lo trovo pazzesco che un ristorante a Korca finisca le qofte quelle che sono arrivate erano secche dure e molto salate.....le peggiori che io abbia mangiato in 12 anni che frequento l'Albania.Cibo a parte il ristorante è carino con arredamento storico e sicuramente tipico per la zona.Peccato... ci siamo fidati delle recensioni completamente diverse da quelle che abbiamo vissuto di persona.Forse siamo stati sfortunati ma per quello che abbiamo mangiato non posso proprio consigliarlo.....mangiato male.
