Babel Budapest

"Babel represents the perfect blend of tradition and modernity. Its walls still show marks from the 1838 Great Flood of Pest, yet it’s also a chic, stylish place thanks to passionate owner Hubert and interior designer Annamaria Dekany. Cooking follows in a similar vein: the multi-course tasting menu comprises refined, delicate modern dishes with subtle, carefully balanced flavours, which at the same time exhibit references to their Hungarian heritage." - Michelin Inspector

"If you’d like to be pampered in grand fashion, make your way to one of Budapest’s temples of Michelin-starred fine dining. Swedish chef Daniel Berlin leads an army of local talent, who treat guests to beautiful creations inspired by Austro-Hungarian fare in addition to the usual suspects of a fine dining menu. A highlight is the tender sturgeon filet, a tribute to the days of yore when the giant fish swam in the Danube. The location, too, is special: The restaurant is flanked by Roman ruins and a medieval church, while the Danube’s bank is just steps away. Both the eight- and 13-course tasting menus will set you back." - Tas Tobias

"Awarded One Michelin Star. The chef’s childhood memories inform and inspire the menu." - The MICHELIN Guide Nordic Editorial Team

"A stylish, intimate restaurant run with a real passion by the owner and his young team. Cooking is innovative and flavourful: dishes on the Babel Classic menu are informed by the chef's Transylvanian heritage and each has a story to tell, while dishes on the Tasting Menu are more ambitious, with some playful elements." - Kenneth Goh
