The legendary Hungarian flavours were born here at Gundel

Dinner menu

Dinner every day 18:00 - 22:00

Welcome to Hungary's most famous restaurant, Gundel!

This restaurant was opened in 1894 and has borne the name of Károly Gundel since 1910. He had brilliant ideas for new flavours and for composing new dishes. He advised his chefs on which elements to combine, and when the new meals had been created, e tasted, altered, and refined them to perfection. Opened in 2021, the newly refurbished Gundel Restaurant takes Károly Gundel’s mentality, creativity, respect for his guests, and his unforgettable flavours from the world of legends and mesmerizes you with them once again.

We trust that today’s guests and the staff of the Gundel can jointly say: The spirit of Károly Gundel lives again in Budapest!
