    I was visiting Albania for the second time and I invited a colleague to join me for dinner. When we arrived the waiter saw us coming and opened the door for us. We were ushered to a quiet table. Problem. The two guys next to us were smoking, one of them a cigar! We asked to move to a table farther away and we were accommodated no problem. Every table had an ashtray at this indoor section of the restaurant. The service was great and the food was decent. My associate ordered a risotto and I ordered a chicken penne dish. If not for the smoking they would get a better review.

    One of the best places in Tirana. Delicious food and drinks. People are very friendly and the service is really good. During weekend’s is fully booked so you have to book a table previously. Highly recommended

    Nice food with reasonable prices but small portions. The prawn salad needed much more toppings on it (only 3 small prawns?!) but it was tasty. Lovely atmosphere and design of the place.

    Great cocktails, very well made, but the food was rather average. Quite frankly, it looked and tasted like oven cook food you can pick up in the supermarket. Had I of known this, I would have opted for sushi, that is made fresh to order. Service was on the whole friendly and ok, but no one asked us how our food was or if we wanted another drink. We were one of 3 tables, with 4 members of staff working, so not really sure what they’re doing? Nice interior and background music.

    Me and my friends loved this place. The service was very welcoming and efficient, the drinks and the food were good value for money. We enjoyed the decoration of the place, it was quite atypical.

    The most beautiful place in Tirana, where the service deserves the maximum grade, where i spend endless hours with my friends. If you want a cocktail, coffee or good food, i tell you from my experience, go only to CITY ART.Is the top of the top. I like this place every day more.🍸

  • 1/5 Arber M. 3 years ago on Google
    Nice place for a beer or cocktail, but only that. Didn't like the service as they were quite rude at the point where they touched my glass to see if I had finished my second cocktail. That is unacceptable by all kind of standards. Ordered some finger food and it seemed like a rip off as it was burnt and the quantity is smaller than any other place around that street. Very disappointed.

    Trendy and friendly meet point... Weekend nights crowdy till midnight. Food menu is modesty but filling and drink menu is rich. Outside seating even in winter warm and lovely. There are high tables inside. Staff are always genial and helpful. Prices are acceptable, just restroom is small for a that kind pub. Still deserve 5 stars from me!

  • 5/5 Savage J. 6 years ago on Google
    Great place. You can order all kinds of stuff, beer, wine, cocktails, snacks and even meals. The quality is great and the staff is very friendly. It’s a really big bar and you can stay indoors or outdoors while lightning a cigarette. People love to go here, especially on the weekends. It’s really cheap as well. I go there 3 or 4 times a month with my friends and I suggest others to do the same.

  • 4/5 Gerandi M. 5 years ago on Google
    It is a nice place. The decor is simple and the tables are close but i don't mind it. The food is just amazingly cheap and i love it. It's my go to place for club sandwich and a beer. I am a coffee lover but the coffee there i think is not really better than the bars around on the same street so i can't recommend it for that but it is still good enough. The staff has been always kind but iv noticed they change the staff a lot. Background music is mostly low volume and chill so it doesn't bother me at all. All in all good place to grab a bite and drink to catch up your friends.

  • 1/5 Jess TEAM A. 4 years ago on Google
    Arrived at 8pm with a small group of friends. When I entered and asked the name of the place we were told it's "the best place around". When we sat down we were told about the sushi buffet offer multiple times so I decided to try it and ordered it at 8.30pm. Waitress forgot my order. I received the salad that is the starter for the sushi after a while, but then nothing. I asked about food 3 times, just to be told "it's busy" and watching other people that arrived later getting served. At 10pm we decided that we wanted to go to bed and we were done - and suddenly 4 pieces of sushi appeared. I requested with the manager to not pay because I'm done with sitting there and the waitress still made a point to not apologise and say I should pay anyways for "buffet sushi" I haven't had. I would not be coming back here and it sure isn't "the best place around", heck service at Mr. Chicken is better.

  • 1/5 Jarryn K. 4 years ago on Google
    Not a great experience, I'm afraid, which I found embarrassing as I recommended the restaurant to a group of friends. Thankfully, some of them cancelled at the last minute, so it was a smaller group than it was supposed to be. My cocktail - the reason that I had gone there in the first place, on the recommendation of a foreign friend, was okay but largely underwhelming. It was definitely not the 'experience cocktail' I was expecting. But the real ridiculousness came when we ordered food. The waitress initially forgot to place the sushi buffet order for one of our table, and had to be reminded twenty minutes later. We then waited - not an exaggeration - an hour and ten minutes for any sushi go be brough to the table. By this time it was ten pm, three asks of the waitstaff and a complaint to the manager later and we were done. The moment we said we were leaving, the sushi appeared, but we refused to pay for it and left. It was quite disgraceful, and they did try to argue their way out of it (the waitress did, at least). Quite besides this, the waitress didn't look or acknowledge me at all, preferring to speak directly and ONLY to my Albanian friend, including to confirm my order. Not a place I'll be recommending or coming to myself again, I'm afraid.

  • 3/5 Marina B. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) One of the places in the bar-restaurant area. We were delighted with cheap beer for 300 lek (later it turned out that in other places it costs 190). I ordered pasta. The portion is small, but it is not bad, an excess of pasta has not been beneficial to anyone. But the declared squid was 2 (two pieces). But to honor khhni I must say that the boiled pasta was excellent. (Original) Одно из м однях мест района баров-ресторанов. Мы обрадовались дешевому пиву по 300 лек (потом оказалось, что в других заведениях оно стоит 190). Заказывала пасту. Порция небольшая, но это и неплохо, избыток макаронных изделий еще никому не шел на пользу. но Заявленных кальмаров было 2 (две штуки). Но к чести квхни надо сказать, что отварены макароны были отлично.

    Ordered brunch at 11:45 and the order came 45 minutes later after having served several tables that came in quite later. The service from the very hectic lady was deplorable and there were also strands of hair in the olives. This is what happens when establishments consider themselves great just because the location is popular.
