Ftelea Fish Taverna Ksamil
With over 2,200 Google reviews and a 4.6 average, Ftelea Fish Taverna has become one of the most-reviewed kitchens in Ksamil, built on mussels that multiple diners rank among the best they've had anywhere and a mixed crudo plate — shrimp, scampi, red shrimp — that shows up in review after review. Grilled octopus lands tender rather than rubbery according to regulars, and the kitchen keeps baby chairs on hand, a small detail families notice. Prices come up as surprisingly low for the quality, though the occasional dish, like an overcooked crab claw, slips through even a kitchen this consistent.

Ksamil4.9Grill Zone
Grill Zone is Ksamil's answer to the endless beach-town seafood menus — a proper meat house a short walk inland on Rruga Butrinti. Regulars come for the young lamb and beef off the grill: tender, generously seasoned, and priced well below what the 4.9 rating would suggest. Service is quick and genuinely friendly, the room stays clean even at peak season, and it handles both a fast lunch and a long dinner. With over 7,000 reviews, it's one of the most trusted grills on the Riviera.
Ksamil4.8Yakuza Umi
Yakuza Umi built its name on a menu few other places on this coast attempt — proper sushi and poke bowls alongside grilled seabream and crab croquettes, served in a nautical-themed dining room where the table settings get almost as much praise as the food. Portion size and kitchen timing draw the rare complaint, but with 1,770 Google reviews averaging 4.8, the consensus among Rruga Butrinti's steady stream of diners is that the crispy shrimp sushi and tuna poke bowl are worth any occasional wait.
Ksamil4.7Traditional House
Traditional House earns its Ksamil following on a short list of dishes reviewers keep circling back to — a seafood risotto and, above all, a Shrimp Saganaki that more than one visitor called the best thing they ate in Albania. Crab and pasta both hold up, though the hamburger draws a shrug by comparison. Service is quick and warm on most nights, but at least one dinner around nine went sideways with a slow, understaffed table turnover. Across 1,732 reviews the average sits at 4.7, suggesting that night was the exception.
