Albanesi Restaurant and Bar

The dining experience at Albanesi is unmatched across the Lehigh Valley. The food here is on another level and transcends dining from a simple meal into an experience. Service was superb as soon as we entered the building, and food came out fairly quickly. The ambiance was quiet, dark, and romantic. The food itself was incredibly varied in both taste and texture which allowed you to get a full spectrum of flavors. The main entrees of duck and chicken were excellent, most notably the duck which sat upon on our table and vanished within a few minutes. Tender and succulent, truly incredible. By the time the dessert course came out we were feeling full, yet not overly so. The portions were expertly crafted. Can't wait to visit again. Thank you for an amazing experience

Outstanding from beginning to end. To start, the food was top-tier. Our server, Maddie was knowledgeable about each cocktail we asked about and the entire menu , adaptable to our food, allergy concerns and attentive/considerate the entire meal. The concierge, Chris, was on top of everything in the dining room, coming from the kitchen, and all aspects of the restaurant. You too was extremely knowledgeable about each dish and cocktails.

I celebrated my birthday here and couldn’t have asked for a better experience! From the moment we arrived, Chris, the manager, went above and beyond — he personally reached out to welcome us and made us feel so special for the occasion. Our servers, Willie and Morgan, were absolutely fantastic. They were attentive, friendly, and made sure every detail of our evening was perfect. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was lively, and the service truly made the night memorable. Huge thanks to the entire team for making my birthday dinner such a wonderful experience — we’ll definitely be back!

Really impressed with the whole experience. The food and service were great. Everyone felt like they had more than enough food, which can be challenging to get right with family style meals. Absolutely would recommend and come back again!

My family and I had the most wonderful birthday dinner this evening at Albanesi, and I can confirm that it’s worth the hype! The menu changes a bit quite frequently (first Wednesday of each month) as a set first and second course(s) and chosen 3rd main course. We went for the garlic artichoke ravioli, monkfish (YUM) and goulash. I’m a pescatarian, and the serving team went above and beyond to provide me additional veggie-friendly alternatives and meat-free alternatives. Several of the cocktails can be made without alcohol as well — loved the pistachio drink! In addition to the food, the service really stood out (not something I usually pay much attention to, I must say!). The service team reached out before about any dietary restrictions/celebrations and our server Maddie was very knowledgeable and would even make cute like napkin shapes whenever someone from our table went to the bathroom! Albanesi truly has some of the best service I’ve experienced while eating out. Overall, my family and I will definitely recommend Albanesi and will be back for special occasions!

Amazing atmosphere and service. Upstairs is themed around the coasts of Albania with a ship feel and the bottom is themed around the mountainous region of Albania. 3 of us dined downstairs and ate a special vegetarian menu. It was exceptional. The service was great, as well. The manager, Chris sent me a text message the morning of our reservation asking about dietary restrictions, if we were celebrating anything and inquired about preferences to ensure we could have an enhanced experience. Chris was very friendly and coincidentally was the gentleman who had given my group a tour of the restaurant when we peeked in the month prior to get a sense of the ambience. Albanesi is unbelievably lucky to have found such a great and caring manager! Upon arriving, our party was treated like family and Albanesi was extremely accommodating. Whether you're a vegetarian or not, this restaurant is without a doubt one of the best in the Lehigh Valley. You can tell the entire Albanesi team cares about making a Lehigh Valley dining experience that no one will forget.

Albanesi is the best restaurant in Easton. The food is delicious and consistently excellent. The braised lamb shoulder (entree) is a standout dish, but I love that they serve you virtually everything on the menu. Service is attentive and friendly, too. The dining room is comfortable and inviting, and, at least in my opinion, sort of resembles being seated on the inside of a beautiful guitar. Nice intimate vibes for a date night! The manager Chris runs the place with real care and professionalism. Definitely a can’t-miss spot. Will be back often.

Albanesi is top notch all the way. The service is amazing. Everyone is friendly and attentive. The food is just exquisite. I'm not the most adventurous eater but there wasn't a single item I didn't like.
