Home cooking rather than a tourist fish menu, and the best-value serious kitchen in the Old Town – 4.5 on Google across more than 1,200 reviews at genuinely local prices. Reviewers name musaka, sarma (stuffed vine leaves) and grilled vegetables rather than the trout everyone else is selling.
It sits on Tsar Samoil, the Old Town's spine, which means it is a short walk from the Robev House, the pearl workshops and the churches – the practical lunch stop in the middle of a sightseeing day.
Local tip: Come hungry and order the stuffed vine leaves. This is the place to eat what a Macedonian family eats.
