Budapest Restaurants
Whereas most Eastern Europe countries are forced to deal with the stereotype that their food consists solely of potatoes and cabbage, Hungary enjoys a rather more enviable reputation for its cuisine. Ever since the famous Gundel restaurant went to the World Fair in New York and wowed the crowds, Maygar cooking has been given the respect it deserves. Of course goulash is Hungary's signature dish but grilled perch is another speciality as is chicken seasoned with red pepper. You'll certainly find plenty of restaurants to choose from in Budapest, whether it's local delicacies you're after or your favourite foreign food.
Reviews about Budapest Restaurants
We've eaten here several times on visiting Budapest. One of those was for our wedding in 1997. Kisbuda provided the most wonderful violinist and pianist at our small reception there.. Everything was perfect! I'm searching , now, for Hungarian Venison recipes because I've never tasted anything as good as the venison they served. Their presentation is so beautiful too. I've never forgotten them. I fully intend to return.
I had the pleasure of finding this jewel of a restaurant many years ago. Quite simply, it is the best restaurant that I have ever been to. The decor was truly beautiful and the ambience quite sublime. The waiters were true professionals, the food stunning and the wine absolutely perfect. Driving in our taxi through the rather grim streets surrounding the restaurant was rather unsettling and we even considered abandoning the idea and going elsewhere. But when we opened the door we were transported to a different world. It made our holiday all the more memorable. When recounting my rather limited travel experiences, I always recall this night as one of the most memorable of my life.
Excellant bottle of wine, beef stew (goulash) was beautiful with spatzel best in Europe. Try the struedal with marzipan ice cream.
It was pretty good - though being from Poland the 'commie retro' look perhaps was lost on me....!
A fantastic dinner experience. great sevice and reasonable prices. The enviroment is cool retro with great design-pieces. Highly recommended!
