this place i have no idea if its good or not. because ive never been able to secure a reservation, after multiple tries, with a full weekends flexibility and a month's warning. its enjoyed the #1 spot in budapest for years on years with 3,400 excellent to 50 terrible reviews.
someone recently dropped this.
We looked at reviews and decided to done here seeing it was #1 on TripAdvisor. We requested reservation for 8pm much earlier in the day, but did not receive any response.
Once we got there, we were turned away and not given any timescales to arrive back in.
Ended up going to Zenit (not very far from this one at all) instead and it was amazing. We were not disappointed to say the least and the Italian food was simply delicious.
entitled much?
there was another gem i ran into recently. a restaurant with sparkling reviews, with a solitary 1* review from a guy who said more or less
"we walked by and was pulled in , place was nice, wait staff was as nice as can be, but for some reason we enjoyed nothing about the food. we're sorry to leave a bad review but we simply had a bad time"
the response from the restaurant was a stunner:
"we're sorry you did not enjoy your experience. we saw you walk by and that you had a fight with your wife because you forgot about her anniversary. she was in tears. we invited you and your group in and accomodated her the best way we can. the rest of your party apparently enjoyed our food because they left us positive reviews. we did our best but some things are out of our control."
