Food discreet, but staff really discourteous! When I paid the waitress considered my tip too little and shouted the amount of the tip to all the people inside in order to put me to shame… a behaviour really wretched! more

Food was typical Hungarian fare - nothing special; and prices were not particulary inexpensive. Even though conveniently located only 2 blocks from our rental apartment, we won't be going back. All Servers (not just ours) appeared totally indifferent to customers; if not outright rude. more

This restaurant was recommended by our hotel. Great location-- try to get an outside table if you can. Food was very good -- we ate here twice. more

We booked here because we did not know the city but then found that it is only one of a whole square of restaurants and we are not sure it deserves to be singled out. Starters were goulash soup and garlic soup, very good. Then I had duck with strawberry sauce - good but intinmidated by a gigantic mound of... more

....especially given the location in the middle of tourist-ville. Food is tasty and not too oily or fatty. Big menu with many different options. Good salads (not always easy to find in Budapest). Have eaten here multiple times and always good. The brand of still water they carry is "not to everyone's taste", meaning I don't know anyone that is... more

menza is a regular favorite. hard to get a table without booking. so, if you have to wait, grab one of the delicious coctails at the bar. they usually hide the long list, so ask for it. orange margarita is one of my favs. in the winter, the mushroom soup is fantastic. for summer, menza salad or duck is excellent.... more

Great service, very tasty food - I can say "modern Hungarian". You can try traditional goulash soup, goulash, perfect looking and tasting salads, and excellent desserts. I can recommend all salads, especially goat cheese salad, all soups, chicken dishes and poppy-seeds dumplings or chocolate cake - perfect. You should also try their "homemade". Really highly recommended - also the place,... more

This restuarant is located along a street popular for dining, and can be seen frequented not only by tourist but also locals. Menza is located at the start of the street, or the end depending on where you are coming from. It is near or pretty much in Oktogon. There is a garden in the middle of the street, separating... more
