Bar Vlaha was absolutely delicious! While being high-end cuisine, it had a very homestyle feel to it. The food was hearty and tasty, not intimidating. Would highly recommend!

What a hidden gem! My evening was nothing short of magical. I started with their mozzarella, turkey bacon, and mushroom flatbread, which honestly had me wondering how a flatbread could taste this luxurious – the house-made mozzarella was perfectly melted over crispy turkey bacon, and the blend of roasted mushrooms added such rich, earthy flavors. For my main course, I was torn between the rack of lamb and the lobster ravioli, so my partner and I decided to share both (best decision ever!). The lamb was cooked to perfection, medium-rare with a beautifully seasoned crust, while the lobster ravioli in saffron cream sauce was pure indulgence – you could taste the freshness of the seafood in every bite, and that saffron cream sauce was liquid gold. What really stood out besides the incredible food was how warm yet unobtrusive the service was; our server seemed to appear exactly when we needed something, then fade away to let us enjoy our evening. Absolutely worth every penny. ★★★★★
