"Set on a cobbled street in the Old Town, alongside the castle walls, this bright, colourful bistro is known by food-lovers across the country – and it certainly deserves its reputation. It’s family-owned and professionally run by a friendly team, and the menu is an appealing mix of colourful Hungarian and Mediterranean dishes. While classic flavours are in abundance, presentation is decidedly modern; the wild boar soup is not to be missed, as is the beef cheek goulash. As well as a wine shop, they also have bedrooms, and in summer you can sit in the courtyard beside the working water wheel." - Michelin Inspector

A full five star experience in Macok Bistro 👌🏼 The service was attentive, prompt and kind. We first wanted to sit outside but as it was getting chillier and more windy, they kindly let us move inside, and made a new table for us there. The food was amazing! We were a party of five and we all took the 4 course menu. We had duck liver brulee, fish and cucumber, a choice of beef or duck, and a choice of cheese or chocolate cake. Everything was so good! They were all my favorite dishes. And a special shout out for the cheese selection. The best cheese selection dish I've ever had. It was an actual sweet dessert, but still fresh and not overly sweet. We will definitely be back whenever visiting Eger!

Couldn't find any fault for this restaurant. Worth the visit. Well deserved Michelin status. The food was well-cooked, presented and tasted better. The portion were also generous. I thought the food in Budapest was good, This was better.

Great food, nice service, very cute patio with a great atmosphere. We were super happy with our food, they were perfectly balanced in flavor, fresh and very nicely plated. I have known the place forever, but this was the first time we managed to visit it. I’m sure that not the last one. 😊

The restaurant is really a hidden gem of Eger. If u are looking for a high quality meal - this is your place. Interior is cozy, modern and welcoming. Menu is versatile. The food was very good with sophisticated plating, however I wouldn’t say it was a wow for me. I ordered venison and it was really lacking seasoning. Duck breast was good, nice crust on the skin and medium in the middle. It would score 4.5 from. However service have let the place down a bit. The waiter that was serving us looked like our arrival have shuttered his peace :) he perked up a bit towards the end, but still

The restaurant is very quaint and lovely. The food is amazing. We had Lunch and dinner here. The lunch service was ok, our server was inattentive and almost unpleasant at times. He needs to be better trained for customer service. Our dinner service was a very friendly and super helpful woman. She was knowledgeable about GF issues she was able to help with a menu selection. The food is delicious and very nicely presented. Definitely recommend if you love good food.

We booked a table for lunch and enjoyed a great meal that included an appetizer, soup, two main dishes, two desserts, and a few glasses of wine. The food was excellent, and the flavors were impressive. However, our experience was marred by a few notable issues. The service was quite slow, which was surprising given that the restaurant wasn't busy and it's a bistro where you'd expect a quicker pace. We also encountered a cracked glass and a rotten grape, which was a disappointment. Overall, while the food was great, the service and a lack of attention to detail kept our experience from being truly exceptional.

One of the best restaurants we have ever visited as a family. We had five different dishes, each of which was exceptionally tasty. Definitely Go for the risotto ! Well worth the stop on our way from Budapest to miskolz

Good service and atmosphere. Food was partially my fault for ordering but also seemed a bit lacking 😕. I ordered the bistro meat plate, which was just your average Spar refrigerator meat selection. The duck liver or pate? Was a bit too salty for my liking. Wish it had more pickles or even some cheese to go with the soft baguette slices. The rabbit in my opinion was dreadful, it somehow felt like I was eating American canned chicken breast. It certainly didn't have the rabbit flavor and texture I had while in Prague, U.S.A or even St. Petersburg. The fried potato and duck liver balls were tasty. Dessert was definitely the highlight with the cottage cheese dumplings being sweet and savory highly recommended. 5/10
