Pleasantly fusing the best of Italian and Macedonian fare, Via Sacra offers up crisp and tasty pizzas as well as a good selection of Macedonian national cooking and wines. Service is excellent and its location is a big draw too: facing the lovely Sveta Sofija Cathedral on a cobbled Old Town street. Breakfast is also served.
