Hungary's First Michelin Star: Refined Excellence
Costes holds its place as Hungary's pioneering Michelin-starred restaurant with grace and consistency. The experience begins the moment you step into the elegantly appointed dining room, where smart decor and well-orchestrated service set the tone for an evening of refined gastronomy. The 7-course tasting menu is the centerpiece, featuring dishes that are as visually stunning as they are delicious—bright colors, artistic presentation, and flavors that work together beautifully.
What truly sets Costes apart is its commitment to seasonality and its exceptional Hungarian wine program. The sommelier's recommendations are spot-on, and the wine pairings elevate each course. While some might find the atmosphere a bit formal for casual dining, it's perfect for those seeking a memorable fine dining experience. The front of the main room offers the best seats for a sense of space and intimacy. This is the place to celebrate something special or simply indulge in Hungary's finest culinary offering.
