French · Brasserie

Budapest's great institution since 1858, on Vörösmarty Square. Historic café-restaurant with Second Empire décor, essential for lunch or a Dobos cake. Touristy certainly, but the quality of the pastries remains intact.

Bistro

In the Jewish quarter, a popular canteen serving the city's best goulash at bistro prices. Unapologetically kitsch décor, unpretentious service, but the flavours are those of genuine Hungarian home cooking passed down through generations.

View restaurant, Gettó GulyásBrasserie

Historic brasserie from 1877 in central Pest, listed neo-Gothic décor and gypsy music in the evenings. Quality traditional Hungarian cuisine with consistent standards: chicken paprikash, pike-perch fillet, home-made strudel. An institution that deserves its reputation.
