Contemporary Hungarian cuisine with 200 Hungarian wines, Michelin-starred
"While it would be easy to do, to pass by this unassuming-looking restaurant near the Basilica would be a mistake. The kitchen here sources top-class ingredients, treats them with the utmost respect and allows them to shine. Subtle Hungarian influences run throughout dishes which are well-conceived, skilfully executed and have a notable intensity of flavour. There is an à la carte, but go for the tasting menu for the best experience. Wines are key here too: they offer 100 labels, including some of Hungary’s top producers, with many available by the glass." - Michelin Inspector
"Unassuming-looking yet offering over 100 wines, it lets top‑class ingredients shine in intensely flavoured dishes; retains its One Michelin Star." - The MICHELIN Guide UK Editorial Team
"This Michelin-starred downtown restaurant is known best for the visually striking and technically precise dishes prepared under the direction of executive chef Ákos Sárközi. Since the restaurant opened in 2010, the duck liver starter and the Mangalica pork tenderloins have remained mainstays on the menu. Although pricey, Borkonyha has a bistro-like vibe that’s more casual than other fine dining restaurants in Budapest." - Tas Tobias
"This unassuming-looking restaurant sits not far from the Basilica, and while its traditional dining room may not promise all that much, to pass it by would be a mistake. The kitchen here sources top-class ingredients, treats them with the utmost respect and allows them to shine. Subtle Hungarian influences run throughout dishes which are well-conceived and skilfully executed, and have a notable intensity of flavour. Wines are key here too: they offer 100 labels, including around a quarter by the glass." - The MICHELIN Guide UK Editorial Team
"Chef Ákos Sárközi’s first business is a French gastronomic bistro whose Michelin‑star fame altered the intimate feel he once cherished, prompting him to recreate that closeness at nearby Textúra. It’s so popular he has to turn down guests every night." - Le Guide MICHELIN
