By faaaar the best Pizza in Budapest and my favorite! It's a very small but cozy place, so make sure to book a table (especially at the weekend). They also do food delivery via Wolt.

PizzaMe is kind of a Fastfood chain for Pizza. There are many shops all over the city and you can also order home delivery. You pay per slice, which makes trying the different styles easy. It's a great place to end or start a party night ;)

Tom Georg doesn't sound like the most Italian place, but the Pizza is great! Their other food and cocktails as well. During summer time it's also nice to sit outside and watch people passing by.

Best Sushi in Budapest

Sushi might not be the first food choice you think of when you're in Hungary, but Budapest has some amazing Sushi plazes!

My favorite Sushi place in town! A bit more on the pricey site but worth it. Also very tasty cocktails! I recommend to order one of the big plates for several persons.

Japanika seems like a touristy place as it is located right beside the Basilika, but it is also loved by the locals. Sushi is amazing and they also offer a variety of cocktails! Prices are mid-high.

Senbazuru is my favourite place to ORDER Sushi in Budapest. It's fast and delicious and the prices are fair. Their Ramen is also worth a try!

Sushi Time is a chain in Budapest, most of them are located in big shopping malls (e.g. Westend, Allee). They have really yummy Sushi boxes for Takeaway, but you can also order them for Home delivery via Wolt or Foodora. Prices are fair.

Prime has the best Steak selection in town. Prices are on the higher end, but the place feels sophisticated still casual and food and service is amazing. Would also highly recommend their bar.

Ichigo has a small menu: just bowls and rolls (with mostly the same ingredients), but both are so good that you don't need more choices :)

Lángos is a must-eat when you visiting Budapest! The best place to get one is Retro Lángos situated near to the Basilika in the City center. They offer so many different Lángos flavours that it is hard to choose  - from sweet to salty to anything you can imagine :) There can be queues sometimes but they are very organised and move fast.

If you like sweets you need to try kürtőskalács - Chimney cake. You can get it at many small stalls throughout the city, but I recommend getting one from one of the houses where you can get more diversity like ice-filled or with Nutella. The best caf...

There are sooo many awesome cakes in Hungary but my favourite one is Rákóczi! And the best place to get it is a small “bakery” near Octogon. It doesn't look much from the outside, but there cakes are fantastic :)
