About
Nestled within the historic Berat Castle, Mbrica Restaurant embodies the essence of family tradition and culinary passion. Founded by the enterprising Mr. Milto Mbrica, a proud Albanian who returned from Italy with a dream, this charming establishment began its journey as a humble veranda attached to his family home.
Transforming mere space into a gastronomic haven, Mr. Mbrica started with just four tables, each placed thoughtfully outside his veranda, while the tantalizing aromas wafted from the kitchen within. Today, though the setting may have evolved into a more refined atmosphere, the heart and soul of Mbrica Restaurant remain firmly rooted in its origins.
With a backdrop of picturesque Berat vistas, guests are treated not only to delectable cuisine but also to breathtaking views. Despite its growth, one thing remains unaltered: the food. Every dish is still meticulously prepared by Mr. Mbrica and his dedicated family, ensuring that each bite carries the same authenticity and flavor that has delighted patrons since the restaurant’s inception.
Step into Mbrica Restaurant and experience a harmonious blend of culinary excellence, familial warmth, and stunning scenery—an invitation to savor not just a meal, but a true taste of Albanian hospitality and tradition.
