Request a seat far from the specials to avoid feeling smothered.
"The menu favors fare lighter than is typical in Central Europe: the carpaccio, steamed leg of veal, and grilled ewe-cheese salad receive consistently high marks from the natives." Full review
"Popular bistro-style place, serving good salad plates and Hungarian/European-inspired dishes."

"Top-drawer restaurant a few paces down from Borkonyha, with a very relaxed feel, despite a boxy interior that seems overrun at times."
"The wrought-iron tables, vaulted ceilings, and crisp white tablecloths give this chic bistro a decidedly downtown feel."

"Maybe you're embarrassed to obey your swanky hotel's concierge and heed the advice of every guidebook ever written, but in the case of Gundel: Get over it."
"Budapest's fanciest, most famous, probably most expensive, and most overrated restaurant, Gundel reopened in 1992." Full review
"First established in 1894, this restaurant was acquired by Karoly Gundel in 1910, who made it into the country's most prestigious."
"Probably Hungary’s most famous restaurant. Not cheap, but no longer the most expensive."
"Overlooking the city park, this impressive floodlit villa is home to a veritable culinary institution."
"Budapest’s most famous restaurant – opened in 1910 – may have lost some of its lustre in the face of the city’s gastronomic revolution, but it remains something of an institution."
"This is probably Hungary's most celebrated restaurant, both for its history (opened in 1894) as well as its renovation in the 1990s by Hungarian-American restaurateur George Lang." Full review
