About Genti

Traditional food on Bulevardi Skënderbeu

Genti is a breakfast restaurant in the centre of Shkodër, serving traditional Albanian food from eight in the morning until ten at night. The house menu sums it up: where tradition meets taste.

Breakfast, and everything after

Mornings are for eggs, homemade sausage, white cheese, warm bread and petulla. Later the kitchen turns to goulash, beans, soups and the grill. There are halal and vegetarian options, and you can eat in, pick up at the kerb or order through Wolt.

Food and tradition

Simple, authentic and handmade: that is how the house menu describes the recipes, and it is what guests write about most. Traditional food, goulash and real Albanian cooking top the topics in Genti's Google reviews.

What guests come back for

Reviewers mention the petulla, grandma's egg dish, fërgesë, goulash, the sausages, cevapi and the mixed grill. Many also mention a slice of revani, a traditional dessert, brought to the table on the house.

The 4VM family

Genti is part of the 4VM family: four brothers who share the same passion for hospitality. Their promise is printed on the first page of the menu.
