Very beautiful place, surrounded by green, very good service, polite and ready to help you in any subject, tasty Italian and Hungarian food. I didn't quite understand why the 12% for service was already included in my bill without being asked for. Maybe is the...local manner for tips but I would have certainly liked to be asked for charging 13 euros to my bill.More

The best restaurant we visited in Budapest. After a few days only eating Hungarian food it was a welcome change. We had just done a free walking tour around the castle district and we had all worked up an appetite. Having done some research the...night before I found Riso in the Buda area and went ahead and booked after reading good reviews. We were all blown away by the attentive service from start to finish. The food was perfect everyone was so happy with what they ordered. I had the bruschetta which was so fresh, followed by the prawn and salmon cream risotto which was delicious, the prawns were so juicy. For a table of 10 people the final bill was very reasonable and we couldn’t stop commenting on how good it was for the rest of the night.More
