Firkász Restaurant

Small restaurant with a very cozy atmosphere not far away from a trolleybus stop, easy accessible by metro. Very tasty food and beer, super nice waitress who spoke perfect english. Menu was also on English. Great portion size for a great price. Can highly recommend and will certainly visit again!

It was recommended to us – the food was tasty, and we really enjoyed the goulash. The waitress spoke perfect English, but she wasn’t the most cheerful or welcoming person. When we arrived, there was only one other table occupied, and during our entire stay, just two more people came in. It felt a bit strange – the place was open and operating, but there were no customers, and the atmosphere felt kind of lifeless.

Wooow what a nice restaurant. So welcoming and beautifully decorated. There is a guy that plays piano there and he does it really really well. Asked him to play simon and garfunkel (bridge over troubled waters) and he mastered it. The food was very quickly prepared and excellent. If you are in this are you should most certainly visit this place as you will not be dissapointed. Thank you for making our evening very special.

The perfect end to a wonderful time in Budapest! Our welcome was warm and friendly, and the decor is a delight for the curious amongst us. So much memorabilia from an age gone by that simply adds to the wonderful ambience. This is not just a meal out, this is an experience - and we were not even there on a Friday or Saturday night with the pianist! The food. Oh, my goodness, the food! I enjoyed the duck leg very much and my son enjoyed the chicken paprikash and Hungarian noodles... licking the plate clean it was so good! With a full bodied Hungarian Merlot, recommended by Támás - our host for the evening (who also taught me some more sounds and words of Hungarian!) this was a truly wonderful evening. The music playing softly in the background, a Somlói Galuska each to round off our meals and we were gift a truly enjoyable, full bodied experience of Hungarian food and hospitality. Being off the beaten track, away from the noisy streets of the tourist area, you really are immersing yourself into the restaurant experince. And it is an experience that should be on every visitors list of places to eat. I know if I lived in Budapest, this would very quickly become my go-to place to enjoy delicious food, great ambience and either invite friends to come with me or go alone to read or write. Not enough praise for Támás and the team. Thank you so luch for making our last evening so wonderful.

Recommendations came from a lovely local Lady and we are delighted we came. The setting is fantastic, piano player and all!! Wine is tasty, and the food is lovely. Staff all speak English. The recommendations were, in order, chicken, duck, sausage and pork knuckle and we went for chicken and sausage. Great great great food. Highly recommend this place.

An hour before closing, we came on the last day of the trip to try some gulash. Although the kitchen was already closed, the staff agreed to serve it to us. It was excellent, something I dreamed of. To this Merlot wine 👌🏼 heartily recommend and greetings from Poland – it was a beautiful memory of the last evening in this city 🤗

AMAZING! Highly recommend. The nicest restaurant with a live piano player. We had the best dinner and service we’ve had since arriving in Budapest. Truly cannot recommend this place enough. Everything was amazing. They were unfortunately out of the pork but we ordered the chicken and duck which were incredible. We started with the goulash soup, traditional Hungarian soup with Matzo balls, and the dumplings. The toast we ordered was amazing. With the chicken and duck we also had the beef noodles. The dessert was a great cake. Highly recommend. A beautiful dining experience and one of our favorite nights in Budapest. A perfect intimate restaurant with photos all over the walls. It’s perfect!

Amazing expérience ! The pork was a true enjoyment, i absolutely loved it. The service is very good and everybody is so Nice. As a French gourmet i can tell you that this place has nothing to be ashamed off when you speak about the art of cooking. I’ll definitely come back. Special greatings for the talented pianist who make this evening even more enjoyable
