La Cantinella is in an alleyway off Rr. Brigada VIII. It has a reasonable Italian influenced menu and a nice setting.
Austria is in Shesi Austria, near Skenderbeg Square. Decor is a little over the top for my liking. The menu looks good, though I haven't eaten there yet. It is pricier than most restaurants in Tirana. I assume, given its location that it is aimed at politicians, lobbyists and the like.
Vila Logoreci is in Rr. Lek Dukagjin near the Macedonian Embassy. This one is already a favourite. Like so many restaurants in the city the main influence is Italian. You can eat on the patio, or in an airy glassed in section, or in cosier rooms at the back of the restaurant. The owners put a lot of thought into the design and the decor. The menu is extensive and the food is excellent. Prices are also reasonable. It is equally popular with locals and expats. If you are in Tirana it is worth a visit.

Regarding parking, we always park on the streets. Unless you are driving something desirable (i.e. 'pimpwagon' or top end M-B or BMW saloon) you should be fine.
If you do make it up this way let me know.
Drita, good to hear from you. Can you send me your mobile/cell number again? I think there is a digit missing from the number you sent earlier.
take care..
