Era (Blloku)
Restorant Piceri Era Blloku
A popular local restaurant in the Blloku district, serving refined home-style dishes at reasonable prices, frequented by both tourists and locals.
Located on Rruga Ismail Qemali in the Blloku district, this is one of the most highly recommended traditional restaurants in Tirana, with its official website featuring separate restaurant, pizza, and drinks menus. Signatures include ERA-style stuffed eggplant, fërgesë, meatball platters, and tavë kosi, as well as grandmother-style dolma and traditional Tirana casseroles. The stuffed eggplant filling has more than one variation, so vegetarians should ask before ordering. Queues are common during weekends and peak dining hours, so booking ahead or arriving early is advised. Some reviews mention a bill of around 2,200 ALL for two, while other guides estimate 15–25 EUR per person. It is about a 15-minute walk from Skanderbeg Square.
