Amazing place!
Friendly and awesome service!
Very high quality food with a variety of options in the Menu. We tried dinner (2 types of pasta), desert and breakfast (stuffed omelette) and everything was super good.
Only the portion of the pasta dishes we tried could have been bigger :)

The atmosphere of the place outside is amazing, with chill music and lots of plants around.

Great place for a quality meal in Tirana. We stopped in for a late lunch and were almost put off by the large construction site next door, but found that in the courtyard it was clean and quiet.

Lovely courtyard with some great decorations, real trees and vines, and comfortable seating.

Staff were super helpful and friendly and spoke English well.

Each day for lunch they do a different menu from 12 to 4pm, and the great thing is that they have a full display of all the dishes so you can go and see them. All look great.

Food was very fresh and very tasty, generous servings and very good value.

Apparently Friday they do seafood lunch with different fish and seafood pasta. Looks like we will be back Friday! 😎

Update: so we went back on Friday and had the seafood lunch. Same experience before, excellent service and great food. The waiter even remembered my wife's preferred meal!

Highly recommended.

DON’T MISS THIS PLACE. We had an amazing time there. In my opinion the best restaurant in Tirana for Mediterranean food. We started with lunch and it was so good that we had to come back for dinner. The fennel salad for lunch is in my opinion just out of this world. Our waiter, Eraldi was incredibly considered and professional which made the experience even better. Thank you guys so much for putting so much effort in it.

This place was an incredible find! We stumbled upon it while walking around! The service and hospitality was awesome! And the food was delish!! We had the blueberry truffle ravioli, and potatoes and Brussel sprout dish and the eggplant with mushroom dish, with a glass of Albanian wine! It all tasted great and the atmosphere was perfect!

Do you ever have a meal that exceeds your already high expectations, and that you just know you want to repeat? We had just that experience at Ejona.

Located in Tirana’s trendy Bllok neighbourhood, this laid-back, high-end restaurant offers an imaginative menu and professional, very friendly service. Most importantly, of course, the food is fantastic (*Note: they accept Visa).

We started by sharing an appetizer: Roasted Mushrooms tossed with sliced almonds & flax seeds and garnished with olives, asparagus, cheese cream and Parmesan cheese. This a superb appy: a fantastic start to the meal.

We next shared a Volcano Salad: spinach accented by crispy Parmesan cheese, cherry tomatoes, pomegranate, sesame & flax seeds, and aceto cream (a delicious cream dressing based on Modena Balsamic Vinegar - just sublime).

In all honesty we could have just ordered one of each of these dishes per person, drank wine and gnoshed on their fluffy, delightful olive buns and left happy - but we were glad we shared because that left us room for two fabulous mains.

Full disclosure: we both adore dining on rabbit dishes so we tend to order them whenever we get the chance. That said, we know good rabbit (and, alas, have encountered the not-so-good as well) and something told us these folks knew how to do it right.

One of us had the Rabbit Role. This is delicious rabbit meat wrapped in turkey prosciutto (yes, you read that right) and cashews, served on a pool of absolutely off-the-charts rabbit demi-glace accented with a wild berry reduction. Easily one of the best rabbit dishes we’ve ever enjoyed anywhere in the world.

The second dish was Rabbit Leg baked with chickpeas, cream cheese, porcini mushrooms, pearl onions in a rabbit bubble wine demi-glace. The resulting dish had a cassoulet-like quality: rich, layered and filling (we couldn’t finish all the chickpeas).

We ordered some Sautéed Spinach topped with goat cheese as a side, and while it was lovely we really didn’t need it to be satisfied.

We also enjoyed two glasses of a very nice Italian Spumante as well as a liter of sparkling water, while one of us enjoyed a superb glass of red wine with his main.

Our only regret for the dinner: we were too full to order dessert!

The entire fabulous meal was 5,000L (which included a 400L gratuity for the fine service). Fantastic value for money. We will be back. Highly recommended.

Me and my kids loved the food. We also ordered some extra mashed potatoes what was not on the menu but possible. Really nice ambiance, good service, tasty food, nice portions, good price. Absolutely recommended 🥂

You know you really like a restaurant when it’s the first one that you felt inclined to leave a review for. I’ve dined at Ejona on five occasions and not only enjoyed the food, but was pleased by the warm welcome I received each time that I visited. The ambience and decor are fantastic, too. I would highly recommend visiting this restaurant. Thank you to the staff and chefs of this wonderful place.

As for food recommendations, the pan-seared filet mignon (served at dinner) was my favorite... at my request - the second time that I ordered this dish - it was served with mashed potatoes and asparagus. My second favorite was the couscous dish (served at lunch- though the menu changes daily) with carrots, broccoli, pumpkin, and fried cheese balls.

My only criticism would be the Albanian donuts that were served at breakfast- they just weren’t as good as I expected them to be. After enjoying the donuts shared with me by an Albanian grandma in the past, hers were much better in comparison. Naturally, it can be hard to beat a family recipe, so I won’t deduct a star for the donuts.

If you are a person that loves tastes with a twist like me, that's the place to go!
Rabbit salad, pasta with orange, frozen cheesecake, and many, many other special dishes await you there!
I d go as many times needed to taste all the menu!

This pace is amazing. Every single time we come here we are greeted with the same smiles and beautiful energy of the staff. Thank you. The food is delicious and very good priced. Here are just a couple of photos from this lunch. Give this place a try and you can thank me later

The most delicious food in the whole Albania. The customer service is top-notch which is already the common thing but they went above and beyond. 6 guests were just entering the restaurant while the waiters already put the tables together side by side so the group could sit comfortably.

We received proper explanation of all the lunch options. And been provided the WiFi password right a second prior asking for it. Waiters are friendly. Food is delicious. Serving is beautiful.

Location is central. The interior is so cozy that you don't want to leave the place. Music is pleasant to ear.

Highly recommended a thousand times if you're into tasty food in the nice comforting place :)

The grand pasta I ordered was perfect. Highly recommended. Also we had Gold salad and Spaghetti with ragu that were the best ever. The restaurant is very cosy and has very kind staff. Its near the city central square. We had a dinner that was delicious.

You can feel the warmth and beauty of this place even when you first enter it.

The two guys that served us were so, so kind, they kept checking on us and making sure we liked everything, and the food was made pretty fast.

Everything you can see here was a combination made in heaven! You can notice they they offer unusual combinations of food but they are doing it insanely well, all the flavors go together. Props to the chef/s.

It makes my heart smile knowing that this place exists, and if you are from Tirana or going there, please visit it! It is truly one of the most unique experiences I've had, I'd give it a million stars if I could. ❤

Delicious food, top notch service and great atmosphere. We ate at Ejona 4 different times during our stay in Tirana, everything we tasted (both on the lunch and dinner menus) was great and the staff made every meal a special moment with their attention to detail and professionalism. Oh and the prices are super reasonable! I can't recommend this place enough.

A great place to eat in has outdoor and indoor seating area the menu is very rich and the waiter knew all the details about the dishes he recommended grilled aubergine with two kinds of mushrooms and cheese a Yasr I will never forget so rich
We also had Caesar salad and ox salad really filling
The mushroom soup was very special as it also included a base of pumpkin
The veal carpaccio was very unique in taste and presentation The carpaccio is rolled and filled with Gorgonzola cheese, crisp Parmesan and baby rucola
The bread was also very tasty and was baked with olives inside

Best meal I had in Tirana. Atmosphere was amazing, food reasonably priced. Would have easily paid double in London. Worth a visit for sure !

Fantastic service and equally amazing food served in a small space tastefully decorated space. It’s down a small alley; don’t be intimidated! The service was attentive without being overbearing. The food was rustic yet refined.

The staff are super friendly, great outdoor sitting area and wide selection of dishes. We had avo tartar and the stuffed eggplant which were amazing! I can't wait to go back again

Great breakfast at a very reasonable price. Eggs, omelettes, french toast, crepes, donuts, pancakes...they've got a lot of choices! Everything is prepared fresh. Donuts came out warm and fluffy. Eggs were friend perfectly. Decor inside and out is upscale and trendy, kind of boho chic. Staff are personable and attentive. Highly recommend for a good traditional breakfast in a cool neighborhood of Tirana.

Great restaurant with very good vibes. Wonderful outdoor space. The food is great and affordable and the staff is nice.

It's my last night in tirana and gladly I had an amazing dining experience at Ejona.. the atmosphere is beautiful and the staff are very polite and serve you food with a smile..
I enjoyed the mushroom soup and I loved the veal shank it was perfectly cooked and the polenta that came with it had a nice texture and a soft taste that complemented the veal perfectly
