Burger & Grill Restaurants in Tirana

The grill is part of Tirana's DNA. Qofte, kërnacka from Korçë, steaks over open fire, roast chicken and smash burgers on house-baked buns turn up everywhere from sports bars in Blloku to open-kitchen bistros off Rruga e Kavajës. The rooms are loud, the portions large and the beer always cold.

Duff Sports Bar on Brigada VIII is the place for a burger during the match, Hayal Et on Sami Frashëri grills halal meat Turkish-style late into the night, Bitter Bistro on Zogu I brings an American style with cocktails, and Arra at Square 21 cooks what it calls comfort fine food from an open kitchen. n'Mes on Murat Toptani remains the classic for qofte and beer.

A burger with fries costs 700 to 1,400 lek, while a grill platter for two runs 2,500 to 4,000 lek. Most take walk-ins, but on big match nights the tables near the screen go early.

Resto lists 15 burger and grill restaurants in Tirana, with prices from under 1,500 lek to 3,000 to 5,000 lek per person. The highest rated on Google are Hayal Et, Smoke House Dry Aged Steak & Grill and Lizz Restaurant. 2 of them take free online bookings through Resto; for the others you will find the phone number and address on the restaurant's page.
