Rilindja Restaurant

About

Rilindja is the oldest running restaurant in Valbonë, nestled in the heart of the Albanian Alps and known for its warm, cozy atmosphere and rustic charm. The cuisine focuses on traditional Northern Albanian fare—think roasted goat, fresh trout, rich meat stews—prepared over fire and in wood ovens, but they also offer more international options during the summer. Guests often praise the generous portions, friendly staff, and spectacular mountain views from the dining area. It’s a hub for hikers and travelers, ideal for enjoying authentic local flavors in a serene alpine setting
