    Service: perfect. We were received with champagne. They explained the menu and also let us try some of the local wines to decide which we were going to order. All the food was very good. I recomended!

    The most amazing food I ever tried. Started with a welcome drink. Followed by a wine tasting. Finished with outstanding dinner. Try the goose lever parfait and the deer. Friendly waiter on top.

    We loved it: the chef re-invents Hungarian food with original recipes and waiters will give you the possibility to sample excellent Hungarian wines before you chose which ones to accompany your meal.

    Welcome drink was a nice gesture. Mine was homemade champagne and I loved it. Bread is a good sign of a good restaurant. All kinds were good. Truffle soup was amazing. Definitely recommended.

    Both the duck starter and entree were very tasty, but I also loved the paprika peppers stuffed with lamb. The courtyard is nice with live music sometimes. Welcome drink & cupcakes on your way out.

    This is a lovely boutique restaurant with a farm to table concept. Every dish was wonderful. The ironed chicken was tender and flavorful. The roast duck breast was delicious. Great beef tartar too!

    As far as farm to table goes, this is definitely up there. The food is delicious, wine is locally sourced (by the owner), and everything down to the bread is "fais maison." Very affordable.
