    I dined at Vita99 on a Saturday night and overall, I was pleased with the experience. The pasta was superb and I highly recommend you order a "tris" to get the full experience. One of the waiters was also very nice and recommended a superb red wine. What I didn't like was that some of the ingredients were missing on a few dishes and we were the only table on a Saturday night making the atmosphere feel quite dull.

    The lady who owns or manages this place was lovely and super friendly. She spoke perfect English to help us out and she was very accommodating. Our only problem was that the pastas were so salty that it was not enjoyable. The wine was nice, and they even brought us out some dessert after dinner. Based on the great reviews, I hope that we had a one time bad experience; the pastas were well cooked, but so salty that any other flavor was overwhelmed. If we try it again, I'll update this.

    Well ,it was a great experience. The service was fantastic, a women served us, probably the owner, at least it looks like that by the knowledge and experience, knows all about the business not a waitress. We had 2 pastas and 2 deserts with white wine. It was all superb. 5 start, must visit place for pasta lovers. Over 30 different pastas which is hard to see.

    In the mood for a good pasta? This is your place to go! Super delicious pastas (amatriciana is a must try! Best one I have ever had), atmosphere was nice, friendly staff. Only thing which wasn’t up to expectations was the house wine (from a carton box). But again, looking for good pasta, visit vita99!

    We had a fantastic meal of handmade pasta here tonight with a magnificent red wine followed by a wonderful semi-freddo and the service was superb. It was also incredible value for money. You are missing out if you don't eat here while in Tirana!

    (Translated by Google) I would go back now. The guys who work there are too good and speak Italian very well. The food is delicious but I recommend the chicken soup which is wonderfully good. (Original) Ci tornerei ora. I ragazzi che ci lavorano sono troppo bravi e parlano molto bene l'italiano. Il cibo è buonissimo ma consiglio la zuppa di pollo che è meravigliosamente buona.

    Wow wow wow. Greeted by Juljan Rapanj one of the most professional waiter we have ever met, spoke perfect English and fulfilled all of our needs. He has great taste of wine and knowledge about of what this restaurant has to offer. Highly recommended. Must visit in Albania ❤️

    This is my first time in Europe and my first time in Albania, I have not yet been to other Italian restaurants but let me tell you, the food here is amazing! My boyfriend and I sat down to eat here today and we ordered pasta with meat, I ordered bacon pasta with tomato sauce and it was the best pasta I've ever had! Way better than American pasta for sure! I will be returning back here during our 3 month stay thank you Vita99!

    They do not accept credit cards !! We came all the way and paid for our parking 200 lek and the car stayed in the parking for 5 minutes only because the restaurant does not accept credit cards. We had to pay the 200 lek and go to another restaurant that accepts credit cards. Important: try Artigiano (amazing Italian restaurant)

    Our experience with the Rooms Restaurant was pure perfection! My girlfriend is allergic to gluten and the restaurant staff clearly understood the challenge and pointed towards a couple of dishes which are originally made gluten free. The staff was extremely careful when handling our order to make sure there is no chance for the food to get in touch with wheat. The atmosphere and music in the restaurant is very chilled which was great and the staff is also very helpful and friendly. We ended up having a gluten free risotto with smoked salmon and beef filet with potatoes and spinach - the taste of the food was simply amazing! We will definitely return to the restaurant when back in Tirana and can highly recommend it to others!

    (Translated by Google) Good restaurant but does not deserve its rating. Yes it was very good for pizza and pasta ordered. On the other hand for pasta house the quantity was limited to see not enough. The most is that the credit card is accepted. Note: Before ordering the server is present. On the other hand as the dishes are served, we may well call him but we were not his priority ... Too bad! (Original) Bon restaurant mais ne mérite pas sa note. Oui c’était très bon pour les pizza et les pâtes commandé. Par contre pour les pâtes maison la quantité était limite voir pas assez. Le plus c'est que la carte bancaire est accepté. Bémol à noté : Avant de commander le serveur est présent. Par contre des que les plats sont servis, nous avons beau l'interpeller mais nous n'étions plus sa priorité ... Dommage !

    (Translated by Google) Warm and tasty I almost left after looking at the map: pasta and pizza, but I wanted Albanian cuisine. The very young owner was so charming and helpful and so gracious that I stayed. I did not regret it: all dishes are handmade, the butter is homemade, the pasta is freshly prepared - you can taste it. But what is priceless is the hospitality and the conversations. In no time you would have organized a day trip to a very spectacular restaurant in the nowhere, and for free. The people here really want to do something for their country that they are proud of and that they are laying at our feet. Unrestricted recommendation! (Original) Warmherzig und lecker Beinahe wäre ich nach einem Blick in die Karte wieder gegangen: Pasta und Pizza, ich wollte jedoch albanische Küche. Der noch sehr junge Besitzer war aber so bezaubernd und hilfsbereit und so überaus liebenswürdig, dass ich doch geblieben bin. Ich hab’s nicht bereut: alle Gerichte sind handgefertigt, die Butter ist hausgemacht, die Pasta frisch zubereitet - das schmeckt man. Was aber unbezahlbar ist: die Gastfreundschaft und die Gespräche. Im Nu hätte man mir einen Tagesausflug zu einem ganz besonders spektakulären Restaurant im Nirgendwo organisiert, und das für umsonst. Die Leute hier wollen wirklich was tun für ihr Land, auf das sie stolz sind und das sie uns zu Füßen legen. Uneingeschränkte Empfehlung!

    Interior decoration ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Location ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Taste ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Price ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Service ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ As an appetizer, I ordered Caprese, which was described as Burrata. But, It was just mozzarella cheese. Maybe we misordered 🤔? Homemade pasta was perfect. However, for seasoning, we ordered wine, so if enjoying it together, it may be better to have a little, little more salt. The main beef was very delicious. I was already full at that time, but I was able to finish the beef, which was pure taste and tender. The price was surprisingly reasonable for this type of restaurant. At first, we just wondered if there was a raw fish like carpaccio in the appetizer, but it was a little disappointing that he told me to go to another restaurant. If it's an à la carte type restaurant rather than a course tailoring, sometimes there are other menus besides the menu. So we were just curious, and asked😥 We were not that serious. Was it inappropriate, or is it normal in this country? I don't know, but there is no doubt that it was a little sad to me.

    ⭐️⭐️Best Restaurant in Albania! ⭐️⭐️ Es gibt eine große Auswahl an Gerichten. Der Service ist klasse, zuvorkommend und hilfsbereit. Das Restaurant überzeugt nicht nur mit dem Essen, sondern auch mit seinem romantischen Ambiente. Die Preise sind für die Qualität und den Service fair! Unbedingt besuchen!

  • 4/5 Valerio L. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) As an Italian I must say that I did not expect much from this restaurant where I went with two local collaborators (if I had been alone I would never have gone there), instead I must say that I was pleasantly surprised by the gricia I ate and by the limoncello at the end meal. Cuisine not bad at all, hospitable and kind. Rating: 3.8 (Original) Da Italiano devo dire che non mi aspettavo molto da questo ristorante dove sono andato con due collaboratori del posto (fossi stato da solo non ci sarei mai andato), invece devo dire che sono rimasto piacevolmente sorpreso dalla gricia che ho mangiato e dal limoncello a fine pasto. Cucina per niente male, ospitali e gentili. Voto: 3.8

    The patio was lovely, the service was amazing, but the food was not exceptional and both my friend and I got stomach cramps a couple of hours after leaving the restaurant. I think we might have had food poisoning.

    Italian cuisine in the center of Tirana, so if you ever miss going to Italy, Vita99 is the perfect place to go to. It calms you with the smooth italian music and it exites your pallet with the true italian style.

    This was an unbelievable find in Tirana. We ordered fillet steak and home made ravioli with truffles and porcini mushrooms. The food was the most delicious we ever tasted, outclassing top London, Paris and New York restaurants. The owner, Auron speaks perfect English and served us personally; friendly, unassuming and very relaxed.

    Such a great experience... its one of the most amazing restaurants i have ever visited.... the owner also helped us in creating our own pasta and after finishing the main courses he gave us a compliment of a very tasty fruit plate. That was just a lesson how customer service should be ... i recommend everyone to go and try their delicious italian food 😍

    (Translated by Google) The food was really delicious and the prices are really fair. The waiter was super friendly. A restaurant in Tirana which I can recommend without problems. The foccacia was delicious as well as the two pasta dishes. There is a huge selection of wines as you see locally. However, no drinks menu. Here you will be happy to advise. In addition, more German beer brands are offered as Albanian beer brands. I think as a draft beer, there is only German if I understand the waiter. The dessert was also very good at the end. By car, it is difficult to find a parking space in the adjacent streets. Since it is advisable to take a central parking lot and then walk there. It is fortunately very central. (Original) Das Essen war wirklich sehr lecker und die Preise sind echt fair. Der Kellner war super freundlich. Ein Restaurant in Tirana welches ich ohne Probleme empfehlen kann. Die Foccacia war lecker wie auch die beiden Nudelgerichte. Es gibt eine riesige Auswahl an Weinen wie man vor Ort sieht. Allerdings keine Getränkekarte. Hierbei wird man gerne beraten. Zudem werden mehr deutsche Biermarken als albanische Biermarken angeboten. Ich glaube als Fassbier gibt es nur deutsches wenn ich den Kellner richtig verstanden habe. Der Nachtisch war zum Abschluss auch sehr gut. Mit dem Auto findet man nur schwer einen Parkplatz in den angrenzenden Straßen. Da empfiehlt es sich einen zentralen Parkplatz zu nehmen um dann dorthin zu laufen. Es liegt zum Glück sehr zentral.

    (Translated by Google) While it is very cheap the portions are very small, it took less than three minutes to finish a plate of tagliatelle. The food is not ugly but it has no salt. I do not recommend. The attention was good, that's why they are the two stars. (Original) Si bien es muy barato las porciones son muy pequeñas, tardé menos de tres minutos en terminar un plato de tagliatelle. La comida no es fea pero no tiene sal. No recomiendo. La atención fue buena, por eso son las dos estrellas.

    The pasta was exceptional, the salads were amazing and the owner was very polite and helpful! 100% would recommend

    Very good plate of pasta. House wine and chocolate fondant desert were both reasonable but nothing special. Very, very good value but the only thing that irked was being charged 250 Leo for a small basket of dry bread that I didn’t ask for.

    I spent 15 minutes researching restaurants (which can be a painful process when you're already very hungry and dealing with many places that can't clear internet reviews) and another 15 minutes walking to the location only to learn that when I arrived around 6:20pm their kitchen was closed and would only open at 8ish. I'd suggest they post their ~real~ opening and closing times here so people can make an informed decision about if visiting is viable. In the meantime, unless you are really in the area, treat their posted hours as unreliable and don't go out of your way to visit. Now to spend another 15 minutes trying to clear another place to eat... Update: I did in fact visit the location during posted open hours (Vita and 99 clearly visible, so I doubt I was in the wrong place!), and an employee specifically told me the kitchen was closed. I can even pull up the Google Maps location data if need be😂. My purpose in leaving a negative review is to warn others that your posted hours are not accurate, and that they should not go out of their way to visit a place that may very well be closed, wasting their time. I would very much liked to have visited and tried your food, but it wasn't to be. Update 2: I visited the restaurant on a Saturday, not a Sunday. Someone dressed like a waiter told me it was closed, and would open around 8. An earlier version of this review mentioned a restaurant I went to afterward in place of this one. As there was a problem there as well (Albania is very unlucky with restaurants for me!!), I am removing the name.

  • 5/5 lorenzo r. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely amazing. Really delicious food, one of the best homemade pasta I've ever eaten and I live in Italy. The location is super cool as well and the owner is really nice. Price are very reasonable. I strongly recommend!

    I've been coming to Tirana since 2015 and every time I come here, I make sure to get a meal at Vita 99. The homemade pasta is excellent and so is the mixed prosciutto platter. The wines are also great and this restaurant has easily the best service from its waiters that I have encountered anywhere in Tirana.

    Best Italian we've had in a long time! Incredible food, the homemade pasta is the real deal and amazing service. The restaurant is stylish and super cosy.

    Very good food and beautiful place. They have menus in English but communication with the waiter still quite a challenge. But he tried as good as he could and was very friendly.

  • 3/5 Faisal G. 1 year ago on Google
    I visited it 3 times at least and enjoyed the food and service but had trouble this year with location and finding parking space around the area. Parking this year in Albania has been a nightmare for us in general. Hope this issue is resolved in the future

    Great food but the service is way too slow. The Carbonara missed ingredients.

  • 1/5 Jacob D. 6 months ago on Google • 2 reviews
    I normally don’t leave reviews, but I feel obligated to warn people about this restaurant. I ordered the carbonara and a peroni beer. When the hand-written check came out, it was priced at 850 lek for the carbonara and 400 lek for the beer. This was more than what was written on the menu. When I insisted on seeing the menu to confirm the prices, the woman insisted that these were the prices. She knew what she was doing. Unfortunately if you attend this restaurant and are a foreign person, you may be taken advantage of. The worst part is that the carbonara wasn’t even good, it was bland.
