Excellent cocktails, lovely atmosphere with the jazz and the street setting. Waiters should start using notepads - make it 10x harder for themselves.

Delightful. Meals unshowy but very tasty and felt perfectly satisfied. Really loved the live music each night. Kind and attentive staff, nice cosy atmosphere.

The food was very good and tasty but the service was very slow even though the cafe was almost empty. But the food was still very good

to drink good Hungarian wine, or beer, or palinkas, or coffee while listening to good music, looking at the street in Budapest and reading - there are few places left like this

We visited this restaurant for the jazz and because of good reviews but big disappointment. The service was very poor waiter tipped glass over us and the glass broke on my wife we cut hand clearing it. The starter was okay but the mains were over cooked and inedible. Despite this no reduction in the bill.
The jazz group were excellent so go for the music but eat elsewhere.

The service was very nice and very friendly. Food was worth the long waiting time. The home made lemonade was excellent!

Wednesday 27th March, 2019 - midweek! This was the highlight of my visit to Budapest.The SRAMKO TRIO blew everyone away with their musicianship and obvious enjoyment of their art. This combined with excellent food made for an evening to remember for a very long time.

My girlfriend and I we recommend by hotel staff to take a walk along the street of Raday where there is a selection of bars and restaurants. We chose the IF Café for late dinner.
It was a decision we did not regret! We sat upstairs and had a delicious Hungarian Soup followed by a Salmon dish with asparagus, potatoes and salad. It was delicious. We washed that down with a glass of red wine whilst listening to some amazing Jazz music. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. Amazing experience.

What a gem of a restaurant and general experience located on a side street along with a lot of other cafes. The service was friendly, efficient and helpful suggesting a special red wine that was recommended by the owner.
This is a cozy, artsy cafe with fantastic music,
featuring local musicians in the evening , also serving good food. At lunch they offer special s
which includes either a dessert or starter with your meal. I had the eggplant dip with toast & veggies along with the spaghetti arriabata which was very good. They have a small patio
also , take credit cards, definitely check it out.

One of the best jazz clubs we have been. Nice club with delicious food along with a wonderful jazz group of three - pianist, saxophone and bass! Music selection was right on for a night of fun listening. We had dinner and food was reasonably priced and prepared just right! We found iF to be a cozy place for spending an evening listening to heartfelt jazz and enjoying good wine and food! If you like jazz then iF is the place to be!!!
