About Jalapeño
Jalapeño brings Mexican-inspired food and drink to Tirana in a space that is part restaurant, part cocktail bar and part lounge. The menu covers tacos, quesadillas, sharing plates and grills, served in the house style of plates for the table, and the bar mixes margaritas and other craft cocktails. It gets livelier as the night goes on, which makes it a good start to an evening out. You will find it on Rruga e Kosovarëve; book through the website, especially for a group.
