telephone: +36 1 302 5393 My favourite hungarian restaurant in Budapest: it's small, but frequented by tourists and by Hungarians, the menu is rich, and everything's amazing, both meat and fish. It's behind the Basilica. The first page of the menu has the seasonal dishes. I love their goulash soup, with Soproni draft beer! I recommend booking. Metro stops: Deak ter (M1, M2, M3), Vorosmarty ter (M1), but especially Bajcsy-Zsilinszky (M1).
