De Rada Brasserie

Pristina


A smart and atmospheric place with red-brick walls festooned in old pictures. Gentle jazzy-blues rifts on the stereo give this central place an easy charm. The food leans towards Italian (think homemade ravioli stuffed with mushrooms and spinach), but there's plenty of choice on the English-language menu. Grab a table outside on the street when the weather's good.
