budapest restaurants

Budapest restaurantsBudapest is famous for its excellent food, as traditional Hungarian cuisine is among the best and richest in Europe. Traditional Hungarian restaurants offer tasty food, often accompanied by traditional Gipsy musicians, who come to your table to play Hungarian tunes directly into your ear.

 

It is a common misconception that Hungarian food is all goulash (Gulyás) and spicy paprika meals, just as not everything that's Italian is pasta, and not everything that is Indian is spicy.

 

Hungarian food has an unmistakable character, often rich with sour cream, onions, eggs, butter, fresh produce and wine. Vegetarian cuisine, however, is not the strength of Hungarian cooking, but there are a couple of characteristic vegetarian meals, such as fried cheese and fried mushrooms which are widely popular.

 

These days every type of cuisine is available in Budapest, so there is a great selection of Italian, French, Chinese and even Mongolian restaurants in the city.

 

Note that the tip is not allowed to be included in the final bill, although many restaurants attempt to charge it officially, and the waiter doesn't get anything out of it. It is generally advisable to get a menu with the bill, to compare the prices in order to avoid overcharging.

Marxim Restaurant Marxim Restaurant
1024 Kisrókus u. 23 District 2. Budapest Show me on map »

The major appeal of this restaurant is not particularly its cuisine (although it’s really tasty food) but its décor and surroundings. Located near Moszkva tér, in a side-street bordered by a huge derelict factory, the entrance is marked by a neon sign, forming a Comminist red star.
