Zona Restaurant
A rare fine-dining place that made you feel in the golden era of Buda. Live piano music and great international menu options with a light kiss of Hungarian cuisine. Pricy, elegant, cosy. The restaurant also provides brunch/breakfast options.
Könyvbár Restaurant
Just cannot get enough of the quality and mesmerizing Goulash soup – this time from @konyvbar This cozy restaurant excels not only with the gourmet food selection but the level of creativity they inject in the concept of restoration. Literally, every month a new book is on the table – where all the little details including the menu are meant to bring the book to life. International cuisine, with a taste of Hungary. This January (2020) book lovers can “eat” J. K. Rowling: Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix!
Déryné Bisztró Budapest
A family-owned Hungarian bistro with a taste of France. While our favorite dish is nowadays the wild boar stew, their onion soup is just wow. A cozy place, a great choice for family anniversaries, romantic dinners. Rather a high-end place, pricy but worth it. @Déryné Bistro
New York Café Budapest
New York Café in Budapest became a true tourist attraction. It is rather common to see people queuing up in front of the entrance. But once you got in, the classy and elegant café makes you feel the 19th century chic of the capital. A bit pricey, the food, the pastry was OKish, but the interior design is what really amazed us.
Stand 25 – THE Gulyás soup
There has been a lot changed when it comes to the art of gastronomy in Hungary. As Budapest took off as a favorite destination to visit, we witness a boom in the restaurant business as well. For Hungarians, it is hard to beat mom’s kitchen – especially when it comes to traditional dishes like Gulyás soup, pancakes (palacsinta), stuffed cabbage (töltött káposzta) and sponge cake (somlói galuska). Well, Tamás and Szabina made it. We got lost in the process to re-discover the old good flavors while enjoying the refreshing new concept of these Hungarian specialities. @Stand25Bisztó we got it all 🙂 Gulyás soup fan factory.
Daubner
The best Pogacsa you can eat in Budapest.
Pogacsa is a salted pastry.
Do not miss the “Kis gauda pogácsa”.
Gerbeaud
An authentic place to visit, with quality and typical Hungarian food. We love their Langos, Gerbeaud Kehely, Gulyas soup, Crepes, Somloi Galuska, Hortobagyi Crepes.
Another plate that they serve, which is definitely not Hungarian, but we strongly recommend is their Burger.
Price-wise a bit expensive, but regarding the quality and the place, it’s still a fair deal.
