    Very cute looking restaurant, however there’s no Hungarian beer, or a selection of beers at that matter. The food was quite expensive for what we got and not the best, although it could have been, it just simply wasn’t made very well. The service was quite strange and not as welcoming and warm as we expected. We did go in quite excited to try this new restaurant in the area and we really wanted it to be great, but the experience was very underwhelming. I think the food could be made better, the selection of drinks needs to be better and should include Hungarian beers/wines, it should also be slightly cheaper as the prices are quite steep. The service could be a bit more enthusiastic and showcase Hungarian food and drinks in a better way.

    An enjoyable lunch, with a wide range of cuisine. Pleasant surroundings food was lovely. Just an idea my friend who is 80 years old found the seating a bit hard! A jug of water on the table would also be a good idea! Reasonably priced too

    Great authentic Hungarian food. Four of us trying different options, from fish, skewer mix to pork that almost melts in your mouth. The goulash was well made too (that's kind of a must). It is a small restaurant, presumably just family run but the whole experience was a delight. Seeing the main man beam up when we said how enjoyable the food was shows that they really do care that diners enjoy their meal. If I had one minor gripe, it would be to ensure the lighting system remains ambient throughout the evening, though this may have been brightened occasionally for someone to see their bill. Very minor though and hats off to Lakehouse; we will return.

    Lovely birthday meal at the Lakehouse Restaurant. The waiter couldn't have been more attentive. The food was freshly cooked, although you definitely needed to be hungry. A free aperitif and birthday dessert was a lovely touch and we enjoyed the Hungarian wine. We'll be back ❤️
