Two Tirana branches

About Morsi

Morsi is a small Italian restaurant group with two branches in Tirana: the first near Sheshi Wilson at the edge of Blloku, on a busy street but cosy once you step inside, and a larger one at the Arena Center beside the national stadium. There is a third on the Riviera at Drymades. The menu covers soups and salads, antipasti, pasta and risotto, burgers and classic cocktails, cooked with local produce. Prices are reasonable, and the Arena branch is handy before a match or a concert.
