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.
