FAQ
What was the 17 Nentori?
A cinema in central Tirana, named for the date of the country's liberation in 1944. The Galeria complex was built around and over it, and Golosa occupies part of the resulting space, which is why the room is taller than a normal restaurant.
Is Golosa only a pizzeria?
No, pizza and Italian first courses carry roughly equal weight. That is worth knowing if you are eating with someone who does not want pizza, which is a real limitation at many of the capital's better ovens.
Where is the Galeria complex?
In central Tirana, close to the main axis of the city and within easy walking distance of Skanderbeg Square. Being indoors, it is easier to find by name than by street, which suits a visitor who cannot read Albanian addresses.
Is Golosa a good option in bad weather?
Better than most. Tirana's central eating is heavily weighted towards terraces, which is fine for eight months of the year and awkward for the rest. An indoor complex removes that problem entirely.
Does Golosa deliver?
Yes, across the central districts. Given the location that covers most visitor accommodation in the middle of the city, which makes it a practical option for a night in an apartment.
