Hungarian bistro serving updated traditional dishes, desserts, local beers
"This contemporary eatery stands out amongst the myriad choices on vibrant Október Street, both for its smooth service and its modern, well-presented cooking – and it's certainly a popular spot. Large blackboards announce the daily specials, which see traditional Hungarian recipes brought up-to-date, and the excellent value lunch menu is always a hit. Local beers and wines complete the picture." - Michelin Inspector
"Bright and airy, with sober wooden tables and a mezzanine for small groups, this relaxed, unfussy bistro showcases Hungarian staples through a young chef’s lens: expect a refined yet generous modern chicken paprikash, a dome of foie gras mousse, and the ubiquitous túrógombóc. Chef Márton Irtó, 28, preserves tradition while enhancing it with modern techniques and thoughtful plating—think goose liver with sour plum sauce and millet shaped like a Chinese roll—and he’s baked more than a thousand versions of túrógombóc in pursuit of perfection. It’s reasonably priced, pours local wines from small wineries and craft beers, and insists on top ingredients, including Hortobágy beef raised exclusively for the restaurant near Budapest. “Hoppá” means “oops” or “wow,” a fitting exclamation after a great meal here." - Le Guide MICHELIN
"a friendly neighbourhood bistro with lots of regulars; it serves tasty Hungarian dishes with a modern touch." - The MICHELIN Guide UK Editorial Team
