We stayed in the castle district just before Christmas and needed a place for breakfast. Pest-Buda Bistro was absolutely perfect. The menu has an English side and though it is relatively small, they have everything from which even the pickiest eaters can find something. My wife had the sunny side up eggs and they were cooked to perfection. I had the omelette with three toppings again absolutely perfect. There was no wait either day I was here. It is quaint and pleasant inside also. I great place to just warm up with a nice coffee and a friend. Our server Csaba was gracious and very nice. Love this place.

Delicious restaurant: goulash soup was so tasty, excellent! Chicken paprishka, not spicy, just enjoy the creamy sauce with paprika. Chickenalmost melts in the mouth. I appreciated having health side dishes. Very lovely place, so cozy.

Great food, kind staff, beautiful and cozy place! If you are visiting Matthias Church, this is an excellent stop not too close to the crowds but still incredibly close to everything. As always, prioritize local cuisine! Try the best they have to offer! If you are not willing to experience this fundamental part of a country’s culture, don’t worry, they have plenty of options for unadventurous guests! I was not very hungry and they suggested the classic fish soup, to which I added a salad and a side of their delicious homemade bread! Enjoy this food, place, and atmosphere!

We had a wonderful lunch of Hungarian classics, and a delicious pinot noir. Andrew; our server, was very pleasant and accommodating. Do not skip the apple strudel for dessert. We have had strudel in three countries on this trip, and Pest-Buda's surpassed all others.

I live in Miami, USA. Travel all over Europe and beyond. If you are a solo traveler, I don’t recommend this restaurant. Never being bounced this way. I actually congratulate attendant as he was honest and he said “ we only have table for four” and he pointed me out to other restaurant in the area. From business point of view more people, more money. I would do the same if I had a restaurant 😅. A couple after me were allowed to go in. I went to Pierrot restaurant down the street and left my money there. I have a fast metabolism so I eat like for two people. It is what it is. It was around 2 pm. Good luck solo travelers.

We had lunch here during our trip in Buda and it was really nice. The restaurant is cozy and the food amazing - typical Hungarian and home made. Our waiter Anorew was great and he can speak Spanish 😊

I strongly do not recommend this restaurant. My experience there was extremely disappointing. The portions were tiny, and the main waiter was rude, constantly more focused on making us leave quickly or order more than providing proper service.During our visit, a couple arrived and was told that if they wanted coffee, they couldn’t sit alone because all tables were reserved. This was clearly false, as only three tables were occupied, and it seemed the staff simply made this up to refuse service.After paying the bill, it started raining heavily. We stood under the restaurant’s umbrella, but the main waiter walked around with a look that clearly suggested we should leave immediately. He didn’t approach us himself—instead, he instructed the second waiter to start clearing tables and even said he needed to close the umbrella. Only at the very end did he come over, in an angry tone, telling us to leave so he could close the umbrella. He could have shown some basic human decency, especially in such heavy rain, but chose to act rude and impatient instead.The staff’s behavior was completely unacceptable. The attitude toward customers was dismissive, rude, and unprofessional. This was one of the worst dining experiences I’ve ever had. I strongly advise against visiting this place—you will likely leave frustrated and mistreated.

This is not a hotel, it is a restaurant. Fantastic food. My wife had chicken paprikash and I had stuffed cabbage rolls. The bread is delicious and homemade and make sure to get the pumpkin salad
