Worst: La Porta di Taormina Ristorante
Why: There was nothing good about this restaurant on our first night in Budapest. They served pizza cold that we waited an hour for. They recommended wine that was stale and the service was so unfriendly we would not recommend going back again. We were the ONLY customers in the restaurant on a Saturday night at 20:00 (8pm) - now that tells you something.

Best: Trattoria Toscana
Why: It was very busy on Sat. night and we wanted to get away from quite so many tourists. It was a pretty long walk from the Chain Bridge area and we were tired after walking all day, but it was certainly worth the walk. We were nervous when they asked if we had a reservation (we didn't) but they said they could seat us if we'd go in the no smoking area. No problem there! The food was great, their house red was good, the waiters were friendly and we had an excellent, reasonably priced meal. A really nice evening.

Best: The Gerloczy Cafe
Why: We loved sitting outside in this lovely, quiet, treefilled corner of Pest. The ambiance and food were amazing. So much so, we returned twice!

Worst: Szent Jupat
Why: This might be a fine recommendation for those who enjoy heavy, fried food. But as a healthy eater, I was very disappointed with the food here. Also, we forgot to specifically request a table outdoors and were not offered that option when we were greeted.
