   First time visiting this restaurant, but we definitely will be back. The host was extremely gracious and welcoming. The menu is very comprehensive but our waiter skillfully guided us through it. We had the beet salad as a starter. It was huge (enough for four) and very enjoyable. For mains we had the veal schnitzel (simple but excellently executed) and the Tarragon soup. The soup was divine! Perfectly balanced with layers of flavor. We finished with the crepes which also were very good. Their wine list was also comprehensive. We wanted to try one of the Hungarian wines and the waiter was kind enough to do a quick taste test. We each found a wine we loved and which perfectly complemented the meal.

   Food is excellent as well as plentiful. Service is unrushed but extremely good. Staff very engaging and friendly. My only quibble: Wine corkage is too high for a neighborhood restaurant. I would rather pay more for my food and not be peanalized because I prefer my own wine.

   Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts and for your kind words about our food, service, and friendly staff Robert! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed your meal and had an overall pleasant experience with us. Regarding the corkage fee, we completely understand your concern, and we’d like to explain the reasoning behind it. As a small, independent restaurant, our wine program plays a significant role in sustaining our operations and enhancing the dining experience we aim to provide. When guests bring their own wine, we encourage this option through the corkage fee, which helps to balance the revenue loss that occurs when our curated wine list is not utilized. That said, we truly value your feedback and will continue striving to strike the right balance for all our patrons

   Dinner was delightful. The beet salad was amazing ( and I usually don’t like beets). The mushroom paprikas was so delicious and rich. The pasta was homemade and cooked to perfection (Al dente of course) Highly recommend everything on the menu.

   The chef was so engaging and made our lunch extra special as he shared both recipe details and his devotion to the craft.

   Highly recommend and looking forward to returning to try their other dishes! The wonderful beet salad appetizer was sizable, plenty for the three of us, and the delicious lasagne was like no other lasagne any of us had ever tried. We also shared the beef “praprikash” and the mushroom “praprikash” which were both flavorful winners to us (if you like beef and/or mushrooms). Next on our list to try will be the Hungarian cubed pork entrée and perhaps the penne alla vodka, both of which were also recommended to us. Love that everything is “homemade” including their noodles/pasta. Fantastic and friendly service as well!

   There are some vegetarian options and 2 vegan entree options. The food took a while to come out, but that is the biggest down side. The food was a tad overpriced but the decor is nice. They do valet for the parking lot.

    All in all the food was tasty. My husband pork pieces were too dry. Our friends loved their food, chicken paprikas and chicken Milanese. I came for the stuffed cabbage and was told that they don’t have it. Strange, because we came at 6pm. Service was good and they were very accommodating. By the time we left, the place was full and the noise level was intolerable.

    Thank you for your detailed feedback! We're happy to hear your friends enjoyed their dishes and that our team provided accommodating service. We're sorry about the dry pork and lack of stuffed cabbage that night; we'll work on ensuring availability of popular items. While we can’t control the noise level during peak hours, we hope to create a comfortable dining experience every time. We look forward to welcoming you back!
