Run by the same family since it opened, Principal Tradition Klajdi serves qifqi — Albania's fried rice balls — and village-style meatballs on a small terrace in Gjirokastër's old town, with a mother often working the kitchen and her relatives covering the floor. Dishes arrive cheaper than at most tables nearby, wine is homemade, and the pistachio cake gets requested by name. A 4.8 average across 355 reviews reflects a place built on consistency rather than polish — everything cooked fresh, to order, so it rewards patience over a rushed meal.
