"This was an amazing restaurant to visit. The food & service was impeccable. They were so friendly and provided some historical knowledge to the Albanian culture. I also recommend getting the Rrushi liquor and the djathë dhie (sheep cheese). It was very nice! Highly recommended this establishment if you are nearby"
