Full description

Retek Bisztro is a compact Hungarian restaurant in Budapest's V district that reviewers describe as warm, stylish and very cozy without feeling crowded. The menu focuses on regional staples cooked with polish: goulash soup, stuffed sour cabbage and roasted duck with pureed pickled cabbage are all mentioned.
