Best Casual Restaurants in Budapest

Excellent experience Great service. Really friendly and helpful staff Definitely a location to visit

In a trip filled with amazing food this was easily the best meal we ate while in Budapest. Everything was perfectly seasoned, the staff were all super pleasant, joking with the bartender as we sat directly in front of him, and the ambiance was great. My only regret is that we didn’t get to try everything on the menu due to the limits of our stomachs!

I don’t usually leave a review, but after two nights of misses - this was an absolute hit from a wonderfully warm welcome, to amazing food (beautiful flavours and meticulous presentation) in a gorgeously designed interior. All this for a few £ than the soul less Hard Rock Cafe the previous night. Book Mercatino you will not regret it xx

Great location, disorganized service and the food was a mixed bag. Location: just in front of St. Stephan basilica. Can’t find a better location. Service: very helpful waiter that offered some tips and suggestions. Food arrived fast. But a colleague of his came after the first dish and thought we were finished and wanted to clear the table and bring the check. Food: A mixed bag. Some of the tapas were really great (Jamon in Creamed spinach, fried aubergine, seafood paella) and some were a big failure (calamari, pork ribs). Ambiance is nice. Lively. Live music. Would I go there again? Sure. But need to stay away from the bad tapas.

Had the most wonderful time and food here. The ambiance was amazing, very comfortable and had holiday cheer. Our waiter was fantastic and accommodating, gave excellent wine and food recommendations. Would go back!
