Considering the general decline of the Hungarian restaurant industry this place is a shining star. Attractive, apparently non-intrusive, nicely set and clean ambient, good menu, well-dressed staff. This impression will change slightly if you try to sit on one of the high stools they provide....Try to avoid those. Service is medium slow, still within acceptable limits. The food presents some contradictions. Simple standard dishes like a fried sausage of pancakes taste good but they could not get the temperature right: either flaming hot or almost cold. Another contradiction is their interpretation of vegetarian dishes. It is commendable that they thought about people on such a diet at all. It is also nice that they try to move beyond the general concept of vegetarian dishes in this country: fried cheese and fried mushrooms. However, a main dish that only includes (otherwise very healthy) low protein vegetables (carrots and pearl barley) is not a good vegetarian dish. On the other hand the vegetarian burger includes a fried egg which is a contradictory choice for some. I can highly recommend the fantastic meat soup with dumplings, it is a serious experience. Pricing is about right, payment is flexible, they accept various cards and coupons.
In summary, calling this place a "gourmet" restaurant is a rhetorical overstatement but you will eat good stuff if you try it.More
