Two years after the opening of Artigiano in Blok, people waiting in line for a table every day continued to increase, not only on weekends but also during the week. The customers’ appreciation of our food made us think of opening another restaurant. And we decided to do it ‘a la grande’.
In 2015, we found a Tuscan-style villa built in the 40s for an aristocratic family of the time. We felt there the magic of the old wood, the decorated tiles, the hand-painted glass, the lilac tree that blooms every spring in the yard. Keeping the charm of the villa, we completely reconstructed it, to transform it into a charming restaurant. Artigiano Vila opened its doors in May 2015!
And how can we not mention the terrace of the Villa (open from April to November) where under the shade of the linden trees and the beautiful view of Tirana, the food takes on a different taste.
Artigiano Vila preserves our artisanal identity. There you will find the fresh pastries for which we are known, traditional antipasti, wood-fired pizzas and the choicest meats (don’t leave without trying the Bistecca alla Fiorentina, served at the table in a hot oven according to the Tuscan tradition). To make it all more delicious are our 192 wine and beer labels from the best producers.
At Artigiano, we passionately serve good food, the real thing, the one that is cooked with love and comes to the table with a smile!
