Tom George Osteria

One of the best restaurants I’ve tried in Budapest! The atmosphere and décor are beautiful, the service is attentive, and the food… absolutely amazing. It was our first time trying such a mouthwatering calamari. We started with a kale salad, which I instantly regretted sharing 😁. For the main dishes, I was so glad I had room to taste the calamari my husband ordered, and he couldn’t resist stealing some of the eggplant parmigiana from my plate. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and I can’t wait to go back and try more from the menu! Not to mention the beautifully presented dishes ❤️ Congrats Chef 👍

Absolutely loved this place! The sea bass was amazing but what really blew me away was the salad dressing. I normally hate veggies but I ate every bite. The atmosphere was super cozy, and our waiter Anti was so kind and caring. You can really feel when someone enjoys their job💚 thank you!

We had a decent meal here. Ordered the mushroom risotto, green lasagna, green beans and a bottle of wine. Total was around €84. We only got three small cubes of bread with our meal which was a little strange. Food tasted pretty good, portion sizes were ok. The whole restaurant is large with big inside and outdoor patio seating areas. There was a DJ at the entrance but just playing background tunes for the restaurant. It should be mentioned that there is an automatic 15% service charge added to all bills but they still prompt for additional tips at the end on the card machine without mentioning that.

Overall a pleasant experience. The service was excellent, very attentive and not in your face all the time. The decor and atmosphere is very nice. The food was average. Chicken Caesar salad was nice but nothing special, I've definitely had better in Budapest. The pizza was ok, flavour excellent but the base very thin and soggy. I picked up a slice and the toppings all slid off. For us, the food was expensive for the quality we received. You are definitely paying for the service and atmosphere, not the quality of the food.

A Magical Evening at Tom George Osteria – Budapest’s Hidden Culinary Gem I didn’t plan to fall in love with a restaurant that evening, but Tom George Osteria completely stole the show. Picture this: a warm Budapest evening, 32°C in the air, and I’m sitting comfortably outside on the terrace. The restaurant had thoughtfully installed mist machines to keep the guests cool, a small detail that made a huge difference. The moment I sat down, I already felt taken care of. And then the food arrived. I ordered the salmon with oven baked potatoes, and to say it was delicious would be an understatement. The salmon was cooked to perfection, not overdone, not underdone. As I touched it with my fork, the fillet glided apart effortlessly. The skin had a beautiful, delicate crisp, the kind that tells you someone in the kitchen really knows what they’re doing. The potatoes were golden, warm, and full of flavor. Comforting, yet refined. As the sky darkened, the atmosphere turned magical. In front of me stood the breathtaking silhouette of a basilica lit up in the night. It felt surreal, like dining inside a postcard. And then came the dessert. It looked like it belonged in a high end Parisian patisserie. Beautifully plated, freshly made, and tasting like something sent down from heaven. Light, flavorful, and simply phenomenal. A perfect end to an unforgettable meal. But what truly elevated the evening was the service. The staff were incredibly attentive. They noticed when my ice melted and came over without even being asked, just to ensure my drink stayed refreshing. Warm smiles, genuine care, and a professional touch throughout the entire evening. Tom George Osteria isn’t just a restaurant. It’s an experience. A rare mix of flavor, ambiance, and hospitality that stays with you long after you’ve left. Five stars wouldn’t be enough.

I was visiting the city on a business trip and had the pleasure of dining at this restaurant. It was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The service was exceptional—especially Mr. Marci, who was incredibly kind, professional, and friendly. His warm personality truly made the evening special. I highly recommend this place and would gladly return!

We ate lunch here on the last day of our holiday and the food was excellent. The service at the table was also very good, so why only 4 stars. Well, we are unable to approach a table on the terrace directly on the street and were told to go to the main entrance. On entering, we were met by two ladies who were not particularly welcoming. Fortunately, we stayed anyway and had an excellent meal on the terrace.

Love this please we come here each year when visiting Budapest. Homemade pasta dishes, oven baked pizza, grilled meats simply amazing. While sipping delicious Hungarian whines you have a view on the beautiful St. Stephen Basilica. Special thanks to our host / waiter Megyik M. We’ll be back :)
