Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Çka Ka Qellu in Stamford is a culinary gem offering "delicious unique food" and a "wonderful atmosphere" that transports diners to the Balkans. The setting is beautifully decorated, and patrons rave about the "authentic Albanian cuisine." While service can be slow during peak times, the friendly staff ensures a memorable experience.

    First of all this is one of the most beautiful restaurants we have ever been in! It was like we were transported!!! We got the pepper dip and bread appetizer and the bread was 5 stars!!! So good! I had the Gulash and my husband got the mixed grilled platter. Everything came out piping hot and it was very delicious! We also ordered dessert, had to get the baklava and the milk cake and both of these were worth everything!!! They were so divine! I also had the lychee martini and it was very good as well!! We had never had Albanian food and this was a GREAT introduction to the cuisine! Very worth the visit!!

    Terrible experience. Not the most friendly service. Super slow to get served. Got one of our entrees wrong and 1.5hrs into the dinner we still haven’t gotten the correct one.

    The food and drinks are amazing. Fantastic service. My only minor complaint was that the lights were pretty bright on Saturday night. It’s such a cool restaurant that would look even better if the lights were even just a little bit dimmer. But it certainly didn’t stop me from thoroughly enjoying the experience.

    We visited Çka Ka Qellu (which I can't pronounce) after our first axe-throwing outing in Stamford. It was the perfect place--active, beautiful and welcoming. The service was very good and the food was terrific. We were with friends who had run a restaurant in Stamford years ago so their seal of approval meant a lot. The whole branzino was fresh and cooked well, the tzatziki-like dip was yummy as was the red pepper one. There were lots of veal, and lamb-based dishes, which my husband and I don't eat, but there were several other tasty choices. The cocktails were delicious, but a little small. It's a large restaurant and we were seated upstairs, which I think was better from a sound-standpoint. It was loud but we could still hear each other talk. There's a big bar that looked very popular, as well. Great place! We will return.

    Another great meal. Portions are huge. A hidden gem in Fairfield County.

    Overall a lovely evening. Food was interesting. The only fish that disappointed was the grilled chicken what was dry.
