Full description

Róma Ételbár is a modest Hungarian eatery in Budapest's I district, open only for lunch from late morning to 4 PM. Reviewers call it a hidden gem away from the louder tourist centre, with quick, friendly service and no trouble ordering in English.

Dishes mentioned include goulash, főzelék with stew, beef stew, grilled chicken with ratatouille rice and cottage cheese pasta. Prices are budget-friendly and no booking is needed, which makes it an easy, unfussy midday stop for solo travellers and anyone wanting everyday Hungarian cooking rather than a polished restaurant experience.

Ok, I really hesitate to post this because this place is a hidden gem. It has traditional Hungarian food, quick and great service. The gulyas was delicious, the fözelek with stew was delicious. It seemed to be mainly neighbor folks & some students.,
