About Piazza

Piazza has been serving well-prepared Italian food in Tirana for years, and it is still a good address for homemade pasta, risotto, fish and classic secondi. The highlight is the terrace: a lush space among flower beds and palm trees, set back from the traffic, which makes summer evenings here very pleasant. It sits on Rruga Dedë Gjo Luli, a few minutes north-west of Skanderbeg Square. Dress is smart casual, and it is a good choice for a business lunch or a special dinner.
