Kisharang Étkezde

A nice and friendly place to enjoy some home cooked food. Food: 5/5 - the meat filled crepes and chicken paprika are worth trying. Portions come in either big or small. I enjoyed the food. I felt like it was grandma’s home cooking. I had a sour cherry lemonade which was tasty. Service: 5/5 - friendly service Atmosphere: 5/5 - I felt like I was at grandma’s house with the red checkered tablecloths and traditional decor. A nice vibe to the place. There’s also seats outside. Congrats for being in business for 35 years!

Nice, friendly staff. Family owned. It's a very cozy place too. The goulash (gulyash) was probably the best thing I've eaten on my current trip so far. I'd come back to Budapest just for that.

Meh food. There’s option between “normal” and “small” portions and you definitely want to go for a normal portion unless it’s for a kid. For the price you can get much better food in this city. Very friendly waiting staff though. Not their fault the food is below average.

Amazing hidden gem amidst all the other touristy and way more expensive restaurants here. This place is no frills but serves up really good Hungarian food - service is quick, portions are filling and the food was delicious - all for reasonable prices. Highly recommended!

We discovered Kisharang Étkezde thanks to ChatGPT, which recommended it as the best spot for traditional Hungarian food near St. Stephen’s Basilica — and it was absolutely right! The food is authentic, delicious, and very affordable. Portions are generous, flavors are rich, and everything feels genuine, not touristy. The location couldn’t be better (just steps from the Basilica), and the atmosphere is simple but cozy — exactly what you want when looking for a real local experience. If you want to try authentic Hungarian cuisine at great prices, this is definitely the place to go. Thanks to Máté, Klaudia y Gergö for a really good service

Small portions, but food is delicious, fully recommended. We didn't had to wait for a table, but some people were waiting like 5-10 mins. No children's highchair, and no space for pram.

We were very well greeted by the staff! And had a lovely time enjoying our meal and talking. The food was amazing and delicious. We ordered a Töltött Paprika Krumplival and Csülökpörkölt Házi Nokedlivel as main dishes, the flavour and aroma were just mouthwatering—10/10!! I recommend going even if you are doing a one day trip in budapest! It is a must for traditional hungarian food! One thing to know is that the tip is already included in the price, which wasn’t mentioned to us when we were handed the machine.

We waited outside for a table for a little more than 30 min on a Saturday. The waitress that attended us had a quite bored attitude. The food came quickly, but it was average. Also, the small portions are super small to my opinion, and don’t worth the price. We ordered beef stew with noodles/ pasta with cottage cheese, a beer, raspberry syrup soda and pickled cucumbers (which weren’t actually pickled cucumbers, but fresh cucumbers with sour cream). My husband’s plate had a lot of noodles and almost no beef. A 10% service fee is included in the final price.
