Traveler Reviews

High quality meal- gentle staff.

Bock is one of the best hungarian restaurants, nominee of the Michellin star. If you are not familiar with the hungarian cousine, let you advice by your waiter, and don't be shy to ask about the recommended meails. But if you want to eat yourself full for some bucks it's not the right place for you. :) In Bock Bistro will you get high quality meals, care, and maybe the biggest range of wines of hungary. If I'm in Budapest I always go there. Call them before, and reserve a table, to avoid surprise, its usually full...:)

Terrible food

I'm not sure if it's because I'm not fond of Hungarian food, or simply that the other reviewers have really low standards for Hungarian food, but Ithought the food was terrible and I didn't finish it. I got lamb in a paprika cream sauce, with some sort of cream cheese and fresh paprika. It was torture. I ate hamburgers until the last day of my trip because I was afraid all Hungarian food was that bad.

Outstanding food-compromised by the service staff

We have visited Budapest frquently for years and were delighted when we first discovered Bock. Subsquently we recommended it to all our friends and customers and always ate several meals there on our short stays.The food is impeccable but the service was always slightly aloof and became increasingly arrogant. The final straw for us was the waiter quite openly laughing at us with his colleague when we were turned away without a reservation-we had chanced trying to fit in a 4th meal with them knowing that we might not be in luck but expected a more gracious refusal. We will not be returning and not recommending them again-there are now many altenative restaurants in Budapest where the food is exciting but the staff show true hospitality

Good value in high class restaurtant

Had a lovely meal here. Very busy lively restaurant with great food. They serve a strange spread to put on bread as you wait for your meal- pork lard with bits of ham and very salty - heart attack on a plate -but delicious just don't eat too much of it or you won't be able to eat the rest of your meal. Their goose pate starter is superb.Main courses also good and very well presented. Staff very friendly and attentive. A high class eating experience for a good value price- 2 starters, 2 mains and a bottle of wine for 60Euro( too full for dessert but they looked amazing) They even provide a take away box if you can't finish all your food .

The best!

Tried Bock Bistro in early September 2009 on a suggestion from the New York Times travel section. The food, service, and value are simply amazing. Excellent Bock Kekfrankos wine, too. Unquestionably among the best restaurants in Budapest.
