Where Mediterranean Flavors Come to Life
Experience authentic cuisine crafted with passion, tradition, and a touch of culinary artistry. Every dish tells a story of warmth, authenticity, and togetherness.
Our Story
At Artigiano, we believe that cuisine is an art form — a celebration of authenticity, tradition, and togetherness.
Since opening our doors in 2013 in the heart of Tirana, our mission has been simple: to bring the true flavors of the Mediterranean table while creating a warm, welcoming atmosphere where every guest feels at home.
Our journey began with a passion for time-honored culinary traditions and handcrafted recipes. Each ingredient is carefully chosen — from our homemade bread baked fresh in a wood-fired oven to our cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil handpicked from ancient olive groves. Every dish is prepared with meticulous attention to detail, balancing flavors with care.
Today, Artigiano is more than a restaurant — it has become a landmark of Tirana’s culinary identity. A place where tradition and innovation meet, where locals feel at home, and visitors discover the city’s vibrant spirit through genuine flavors.
Whether joining us for a casual lunch, a romantic dinner, or a gathering with friends, we invite you to savor the moment, feel at home, and enjoy the warmth of our hospitality.

Great italian restaurant! The quality of the staff and the food is amazing.
The Italia salad is full of flavour.
The cornbread with sour cream is nothing special.
The chicken philadelphia pizza is great. The prima stella is kinda spicy but very tasty!
The risotto and spaghetti are very good as well.
The price is high for Tirana but it is definitely worth it!

Artigiano in Tirana served up a solid meal. The seabass fillet was tender and the shrimp linguine in pistachio cream had depth without feeling too heavy.
Both plates looked great, even if the pasta was the real standout. Service was quick, and the space had a calm, polished vibe.
Worth a stop if you’re craving food with some finesse in the city center.
