Lovely restaurant! Delicious fresh fish & salad - incredibly friendly & helpful service! We felt so welcomed & recommend to all in the area! Thank you very much :)
Hands-down, the best traditional restaurant in all Lëzhe I've ever eaten in!
SHORT REVIEW: Delightful traditional meals, incredible & never-seen restaurant decorations, astonishing hospitality and carefulness of the owner for their clients.
COMPLETE REVIEW:
The place is easily reachable in Lëzhe with a car, without encountering the typical traffic of the summer in Albania.
The food was very delightful; every dish was made with organic vegetables, grain and fresh, tasty meat!
If you've never eaten in an Albanian restaurant, you'll find out just how much tastier their food is, because the food source is very close to the place where the dishes are served, and this place is definitely one of them!
You can eat all the traditional albanian dishes & they offer both fresh meat & fish meals!
(If you've never eaten in an albanian restaurant that offers traditional meals, ask the waiter to advise you on what you should order - more about it later in the review).
The other element that makes this place one of the best in Lëzhe is the decorations of the restaurant; the place looks like a typical ancient Albanian house (pictures attached with the review - check them out, they're nothing you've ever seen!) with (probably, otherwise they must be very realistic) real stuffed animals around the place!
The most important thing about this place, after the food and the decorations, is the hospitality of the owner; he's his own restaurant's waiter and he's the sweetest & most caring waiter you can meet in the city, he speaks albanian and a little bit of italian and he advises you on what you might want to order based on your tastes.
Last thing I'd like to say about this restaurant is prices; the food is EXTREMELY good that is ridiculous how low prices are!
Whenever I come to Lëzhe, this is my go-to restaurant and will definitely be for many years to come!
Please, check this restaurant out, it'll raise your standards for the Albanian restaurants, you won't be disappointed!
Check the pictures attached to have a better understanding of how good this place is (I forgot most of the meat pictures because I was too busy eating the meal!)
If you want to take your taste buds to a next level than this is a place to go. If you ever visit Albania and want to have a real local gastronomic experience, Hysen Selmani is a place to be.
