I went here with my friends this evening and we had a lovely evening. The food is lovely and the service is excellent. My father is Hungarian and I've been desperate to go here for several years so when I saw it on taste I jumped at the chance. My friends agreed with me, we will all be returning. It's excellent value with the taste offer too.

" The service was excellent and there was a friendly relaxed atmosphere. The food (vegetarian goulash and chicken pancakes) tasted excellent. The complimentary bread was brown sour dough and I did not like it but ate quite a bit as I was hungry due to the portions being on the lower side of adequate in size.

" I've been thinking about going to this place for a long time and finally after getting a tastecard i decided to give it a go.
It's a nice and cosy place and we liked the decor. Food however was a bit disappointing... We ordered soup of the day which was a Hungarian bean soup and beef goulash soup however the only difference between the 2 was 2 slices of sausage in mine and 2 pieces of beef in my friend’s one. However the biggest disappointment was the main course we picked veal goulash with galuska and what we got was a few pieces of veal with.... Yes the soup liquid that we had for starter as a sauce! At least galuska was nice... You can't compare it to a proper goulash that we had while on a trip to Budapest, the dessert didn't live up to expectation either. Overall pretty disappointed but on the plus side we enjoyed a nice bottle of Hungarian wine. "

" This is a fantastic little restaurant with great food and very good service. It is good to write a review however the more people who read the review will "visit" the restaurant and in my view this is one of London's best kept secret.

"A little gem of a place tucked away in Soho, with caricatures of politcos from across the decades lining the walls.
Great service - the waiters couldn't have made us feel any more welcome - lovely Hungarian food - the chestnut puree pudding is quite an extraordinary dish - and plenty of it.
Altogether a wonderful night out made all the more easy on the wallet with Tastecard.
