What People Are Saying About Albona

In Short – This small eatery features burgundy banquettes, ornate mirrors and an intimate atmosphere fostered by longtime owner Bruno Viscovi. The menu is based on the traditional dishes of Istria, a peninsula in the northern Adriatic Sea near Trieste. This cuisine features a unique group of Northern Italian dishes with Eastern overtones, such as the house-made ravioli stuffed with raisins and pine nuts, and the braised rabbit with juniper berries.

Really interesting cuisine presented with care and pride and concern for our enjoyment. Comfortable surroundings. (Had it not been for the woman at the next table saying "Chay PanEE Chay PANEE" it would have been perfect!)

I love this restaurant

by chxit34 at Citysearch

I've been coming to Albona for the past 8 years and it never dissapoints. The food and service are simply top notch. This is a great place to go on a date, to celebrate something special, or just enjoy a teriffic meal. Allow me to make a recommendation--try the pork loin and strudel. The insalada is amazing too. Decent wine list as well.
