We went there 3 times and every evening was so wonderful, the whole waiters-team including the manager are so kind, polite and are showing a really high service standard.
Beside these aspects the food is incredible good, the love into details elevates the flavour of the dishes to the next level. Also the best iberico ham that we ever had (melts like butter).
Best Tapas in town.

I had the pleasure of dining at Tapas Fino during my last stay in Budapest, and it was a memorable experience in many ways. Located close to the city center, this restaurant is a true immersion in Iberian gastronomic culture, with a modern and elegant touch that blends perfectly with the cosmopolitan atmosphere of the Hungarian capital.
From the entrance, the frame instantly transports you on a taste journey. The interior is carefully decorated: warm colors, mosaics and dimmed lights create an intimate and welcoming atmosphere. The tables are well spaced to offer conviviality without compromising privacy, and the Spanish ambient music adds to the charm of the place.
The service was impeccable, with warm and attentive staff. The server spoke several languages, which facilitated the exchanges. He took the time to explain each dish in detail and give recommendations according to taste. The pace of service was ideal, neither too fast nor too slow, leaving plenty of time to enjoy each bite.
The menu offers a beautiful variety of tapas and typical Spanish dishes, with fresh and tasty ingredients. I tasted several tapas, each prepared with great finesse. Here are some favorites:
* The Iberian jamón croquettes
* Gambas al ajillo
* The grilled octopus:
* The patatas bravas
* Angus belszín toast
To accompany the meal, I followed the advice of the sommelier and opted for a Spanish red wine. The choice was perfect and enhanced the flavors of each dish.
Tapas Fino offers high-quality cuisine, with generous portions and reasonable prices for Budapest. Attention to detail, whether in the presentation of dishes or in the service.
Tapas Fino is undoubtedly a must for lovers of Spanish cuisine or anyone who wants to spend a convivial evening in an elegant and exotic setting. I will definitely return during my next stay in Budapest and recommend it to all lovers of good food!

We had been looking for a Tapas restaurant, and decided to check out Tapas Fino… and it was brilliant. We had intended to look in the window as a first step just to see what the atmosphere is like, but it looked so inviting we went straight in and were offered an early table on a busy night. Peter, our waiter, offered us some complimentary Sangria, and was hugely helpful as we hungrily worked our way around the menu and asked questions about salad dressings. We had a ringside seat of the serving area, and could see the care and attention to detail that was given to our meal. The food was all delicious, especially the mini Angus Steak Ciabattas, and the wine / beer were very nice too. A great meal out at a reasonable cost - especially given the quality of the food - with friendly helpful staff.

To be avoided. Very nice place but terrible food at absurd prices. Apart from the good hamon serrano, everything else was questionable. Almonds, olives and seasoned salad paid for in gold, raw green beans and grilled mushrooms drowned in bechamel. Unfriendly and inattentive service, absurd bill

Some of the food was very good. The Steak Tenderloin Toast was exceptional. But a lot of the food was mediocre at best. And the main course, Pork tenderloin with paprika potatoes and vegetable medley, was impossible to eat. The pork and potatoes were so overcooked that a steak knife had to work hard to penetrate them. The hostess apologized and offered us dessert as compensation for the overly cooked food, but we just wanted to get out of there as soon as we could.

We were not only impressed by the culinary variety, but also by the personal touch that made our evening at Tapas Fino unforgettable. The waiter, Robert, not only impressed us with his professionalism, but also with a warm smile and a sense of humor that lightened the atmosphere. His recommendations were spot on, and his sense of when to slip in a moment for friendly conversation made the evening special.
The "Chefs Choice" was an excellent decision, from the delicious tapas to the tender grilled steak to the heavenly churros - every dish was a poem. The option to order more tapas in between gave the evening a spontaneous and informal feel, which we really appreciated. Overall, the evening at Tapas Fino was a perfect blend of exquisite food, charming service and a warm atmosphere. The crowning touch of our evening at Tapas Fino was the delightful LIVE guitar music played by a talented solo artist. The melodic sounds rounded off the atmosphere perfectly. Thank you very much for this special musical accompaniment! We are already looking forward to dining here again on our next visit to Budapest.

Fantastic Spanish tapas in the center of Budapest. Great, modern venue. we were there on a saturday night and there was a DJ playing delicious spanish music. Lovely tapas dishes, some with a modern twist - such as "patatas bravas", our waiter Robert was very helpful and looked after us throughout the meal. our glasses were never empty. Lovely food, good atmosphere, good service. Me gusta🩵

This is a great Tapas restaurant with a beautiful view of the Danube. Our waiters Szabolcs and Peter were very friendly and knowledgeable - the best. We enjoyed the "Chef's Choice" dinner selection which provided a great variety of offerings at a very reasonable price. We were very happy with our dinner and highly recommend you visit.

I have visited Tapas Fino for dinner and I had an amazing experience. The terrace is lovely and the food was spectacular, but the wait staff was even more amazing. Peter has been our waiter and he gave great recommendations on the menu items to try and also described each option thoroughly. He was very attentive and nice, the special cocktail has been amazing as well! If you’re in Budapest, you should definitely visit.

We visited Tapas Fino as part of Restaurant Week and we were very satisfied with the experience. The food was brilliantly delicious and the service was professional. This is what I call REAL hospitality. Special thanks to Péter for his kindness and recommendation, Angus Beef Toast became people's favorite for a reason.

We had a very pleasant evening at the restaurant, they were very attentive to our every need and request. We were also given an "insight" into the preparation of the food, where every detail was taken care of. The restaurant is pet-friendly, we came with our dog, our dog was also given special attention, water and free space were offered immediately. Special thanks to Peter for his presentation of the food, his choice of the right wine and his maximum attention. I would highly recommend the restaurant to anyone looking for a pleasant evening with fantastic food.

Small variety of foods, but even for vegetarians there are 2-3 dishes. Excellent selection of wines. Cocktails were really good.
Its a beautiful place, in the evenings there was live music (guitarr player).
Now the best part (apart from the food) were the waiters, who were incredibly friendly. Unfortunately, our churros were forgotten but when they realized we are still waiting they treated us for them.
I visited 2 times on business occasion and 1 time privately because i loved it so much

This was by far our favourite experience of our trip to Budapest - the tapas was incredible, with a really modern twist on classic dishes - the patatas bravas and ceviche were such a highlight.
The bar manager and serving staff were lovely and chatty, and we discovered new cocktails and spirits including the local speciality palinka.
We can't recommend this enough, and are looking forward to returning!
Keep an eye out for the apple and hazelnut festive cocktail 🍸

The customer service was impeccable. They really wanted their guest to feel at ease. The atmosphere was modern chic, but very relaxed. My server was a guy name Peter, and he was very accommodating with my indecisiveness. He really explained the menu and made sure that you got what you were looking for. This was a very pleasant experience.
