Have been here many times, like the relaxed atmosphere, the Italian food and friendly staff. The pasta with tomato and mozzarella is my favourite!

Everything we had here was excellent. The fish soup (an Italian bouillabase) was outstanding. Prices are high, but so is the quality of the food and the service. We would return.

We stumbled upon Osteria by complete chance whilst looking for a restaurant quite late at night. I was entertaining 8 clients and was losing hope when we came across this charming modern restaurant. The head serveur was most welcoming indeed, he spoke great English and found us a spacious table which was perfect for our party. It was late, we... More

After visiting the Great Synagogue, we were excited to see that Fausto's Osteria was right down the block. We had read all the fabulous reviews and quickly decided that would be our lunch spot. It is a lovely restaurant with excellent service, but to say the food is some of the best in Budapest seems like a bit of an... More

All I can say is that 60+ Excellent reviews proved right in the case of this outstanding restaurant. The food was outstanding-the service superb and the price was good for the service received. We had Tagilatlle with Scallops and Pork Medallions-along with an excellent Antipasti of grilled Mozarella in Ham on a Salad. Excellent flavor. I am usually nervous about... More

Hidden on Dohany u. is a lovely, romantic, intimate restaurant with friendly service and excellent food. Specials recommended! Two starters, two mains, gintonic, beer, espresso and service for 52€ is very reasonable. We went early, 7.30, and did not need a reservation.

very attentive and pleasant service. Smart modern atmosphere. Modern and classic Italian dishes. Cooked to perfection. And not very expensive either. We had a really good evening there.

Tried this resto in Budapest and I must say that both the cuisine and the service are perfect. Real Italian food, well prepared and nicely presented. Good wine and very professional service. If you want to try something else after Hungarian cuisine, this is the place.
