    The cafe is very clean and pretty, the wait staff is lovely and attentive, food is very good. We were staying at the attached Gerlóczy Boutique Hotel and it was perfect after a very long day of travel .

    Attention! Double Service Fee charge! They charge a 13% fixed service fee which is understandable. But our waiter asked an additional 10% service fee on top of that because the owner took all the 13% service fee and they can't receive any tip. He explained this is Hungarian's legal problem which is considered to be fixed next year. Not sure this is true or not. But after this experience, I've heard another restaurant won't charge an extra service fee because it's included in 13% fee. And we realized we ware tricked. Avoid this restaurant. My Hungarian girlfriend even had a phone call with the owner and the owner agreed they have this system that 13% goes to the owner and waiters share additional tips at the end of the business day. So the best thing you can do is, not pay additional tips to them. Accept 13%. ここはサービスフィーを2重に請求してくるボッタクリ店なので支払いの時には注意が必要。レシートにすでに含まれている13%以上に払わないように!

    Very quiet, decent place. Waiters are professionals, very tactful, always there whae needed, but never pushing. We did not try the food, because we just wanted a nice place to have a coffe for a conversation with friends in a nice quiet environment. It was perfect! Next time we will try the food as well, because we trust this place.

    現地の友人の紹介で旅行の初日に訪れ、5日間の滞在中に利用したレストランで群を抜いて食事の質と店の雰囲気が気に入って最終日に再び駆け込みました。 ランチメニューのチョイスと量が秀逸です。 店内のショーケースに並ぶデザートにも心を鷲掴みされました😋 何を食べても美味しく、満足しかありません。 ブダペストを訪れる友人に自信を持って勧めたい店です。
