Reviews Summary
Twentysix Budapest is celebrated for its breathtaking 'urban jungle' atmosphere, offering a unique and serene dining experience. Diners rave about the delicious Mediterranean-inspired cuisine, particularly dishes like Shakshouka and steak, and the visually stunning ambiance. However, some guests note that prices are on the higher side for Budapest and that service can occasionally be slow. Despite minor drawbacks, the unique setting and quality of food make it a highly recommended spot.
"We had a lovely dinner at Twentysix Budapest – the atmosphere is beautiful and the food was delicious. We shared the lamb for two, which was perfectly cooked and full of flavor, and the fresh pita was a great addition. Our kids enjoyed their meals from the kids’ menu as well.
The only downside was the slow service – we had to wait about 30 minutes for our first order, and the staff forgot to bring us the menu at the beginning. That said, once the food arrived, it was definitely worth the wait.
Overall, a great restaurant in the heart of Budapest, ideal for families and anyone looking to enjoy Mediterranean-style dishes in a gorgeous setting.

"What a gorgeous place! It’s so chill and the food is delicious. They offer a few vegan options and the things I tried were delicious. I loved the vibes."

"Such a beautiful place for a nice breakfast, it was a bit pricey for Budapest. The ambience was really good and it was so amazing to see such a variety of plants within one huge complex. Also appreciated their plant a tree scheme. Would recommend a reservation.
We tried the matcha, omelette (which was very basic) and the avocado and poached eggs. The food was just okay as well as the service, nothing too special - but the place is what does it for you."
