Lift Steak & Rooftop Bar Tirana

Terrazza Aperol vibes

Adela from Tirana

""Lift Steak & Rooftop Bar" is one of the newest steakhouse and rooftop bars in Tirana! Kind of reminds me of Terraza Aperol in Milano..."

“Lift Steak & Rooftop Bar”  is one of the newest steakhouse and rooftop bars in town. Lift is located in one of Tirana's most famous buildings, Aba Business Center. It is on the 4th floor so you have to use the elevator to get there, and I have to say it has a fantastic view along that less of a minute climb up the elevator! LIFT is a concept that combines a classic and sophisticated steakhouse with the style and vibes of a nightclub. 

I went there with my friends to have an apéritif and it kinds of reminded me of the Terraza Aperol in Milano - I haven't been in Milano, but from the pictures I have seen online. :(

The staff was very welcoming, polite and organized. They had a small reception area where two girls greeted you and inquired if you had reserved a table. A word of advice: on weekends evenings, you should reserve ahead of time because they are always full.

Last but not least, since Lift is a high-class experience, you can expect high prices! Menus and prices are available on their website if you'd like to take a look before you go. If you're only going for a drink, I recommend sitting outside because it has a great view over the Air Albania stadium!

One of my favorite dishes on the menu is the ravioli mixed with cream and ham. The dish is simple yet flavorful, and the pasta is cooked to perfection.
