Reviews
Istvan was very helpful in helping us selecting food. Food amazing. Atmosphere fantastic. They have the most awesome bathroom. The service impeccable and ended with traditional Greek liquor, cake and a rose for the ladies. Definitely recommend
Best restaurant we visited during our short stay in Budapest. In fact we had lunch one day and dinner the next day. It’s a popular restaurant so I suggest you book. The welcome was friendly; service attentive but not over bearing. They gave us bread and humus as an appetiser with our drinks; this was free. The food was excellent; fresh, well cooked and tasty. We also received a tasting dessert. A thoroughly enjoyable restaurant; would definitely recommend.
A must-visit for anyone looking for authentic Greek cuisine in Budapest. From the moment you step inside, it feels as though you've been transported to a traditional Greek taverna. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, complemented by great music and delicious food. What really sets this place apart is the thoughtful hospitality. Before my meal arrived, I was treated to a complimentary serving of hummus, and after the meal, I received fresh cherries as a lovely gesture from the house. A special mention goes to Norbert, who looked after me during my visit. His service was impeccable—friendly, professional, and attentive without being intrusive. He checked in several times to ensure everything was perfect. The food arrived remarkably quickly and was excellent. Combined with the authentic atmosphere and outstanding service, this was a fantastic dining experience. I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Budapest
A truly wonderful restaurant that instantly transports you to the atmosphere of the Greek seaside. The ambiance is warm and authentic, making the whole experience feel like a mini getaway. Even the meat-free dishes are excellent, full of flavor and clearly made with care. The service is first-class — attentive, friendly, and professional throughout. I wholeheartedly recommend it to everyone looking for a special dining experience in Budapest.
Excellent experience overall. The décor is beautiful, and the smallest details truly make the difference. The food is amazing, and the portions are very generous. The bathroom was lovely and had everything we needed. The waiters were super kind—special thanks to Bence for the great service. As a final touch, they gave me a rose when we finished, which was such a nice gesture. I will definitely come back and highly recommend it.
