Balani Bar Restaurant - Shkoder

Very nice place super eating and very friendly people

Fabulous location for those who want to get off the beaten path and feel the beauty of the nature, lakeside and surrounding cultural charm. A bit too eager to sell us more which is a little uncomfortable when you are trying to stretch your travel dollars but the food was tasty. We had biked from Shkodër on an unusually hot day so the small bottle of water at .80 was hard not to begrudge. Being on a budget, I would rather spend my money on food than water. Just off the tap was not offered. The food on the other hand was priced nearly inline with most everywhere and we ate every bite. We had a chicken risotto- good sized portion- simple but flavorful, a spag bolognese -moderate portion quite tasty, olive salad- which turned out to mean quite a few olives smashed open to make easier to pit and some garnish, lemon and onion, a small water bottle we split and a large coffee (12.30 leke total). Nice probably family run business. Sparkling clean. The view is gorgeous.

The owner is over 70 years old! But he's happy to get up and buy every guest. Food is delicious and big. They asked me to stay at night. There's rooms in the next building.

The very great kindness f the family that manages this establishment. the beautiful view on the lake with beautiful sunset the tranquility of the place

Here it is well written, the family atmosphere asks them about the package. the view is stunning, the dives are fresh in restaurant and prepared with love. respect for the family, something they don't get anywhere. All right, we're coming back
