Great Italian food with keen attention to details. Had fish while friends had meat. All dishes were superb, cooked to perfection and very fresh. Above all- the service is absolutely devine. Expensive only in HU terms. Otherwise, it's a steal...

We decided to treat ourselves here on our friends last night in Budapest. It was absolutely worth it! The food was absolutely wonderful, the service impeccable. I wish it was in England so we could visit all the time! My credit card disagrees. Truly worth a visit - by far the best food we had in Budapest and a fantastic... More

This would be the epitome of what dining out should be, fantastic food made with passion and first class service levels. We have dined here twice and on both occasions had unique and great experiences, with amazing food and service. The food was perfect each night confirming the kitchen can consistently deliver great food with each order. From the customised... More

This is one of the best restaurants I have visited. Everything was in topclass and worth at least one Michelin star. Pricewise it is a bargain compared to other restaurants in European metropols. Spend a couple of hours at Fausto's when you visit Budapest - for lunch of dinner. You will not regret it!

You have to book this place in advance and it is worth the wait. The menu is filled with gorgeous food and it is soooo hard to pick something since it all sounds great and all the dishes coming from the kitchen looked amazing. It is definitely a romantic atmosphere.

Seriously great food, good value and very attentive service. It is a high end Italian restaurant - no pizza here but excellent ravioli, fish and meat combined with a great wine list.

Fausto is an Italian Chef who opened his own restaurant in Budapest, Hungary. I live here so I try to go as often as I can. It's a fine dining experience so the prices reflect that but there isn't any other restaurants with the same level of service as they do. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. The quality...

We ate at this restaurant a monday evening in April. The staff were kind and we got a table although we did not make a reservation. Our waiter was very nice and friendly, helping us choose both food and wine. Additionally, he kindly answered our questions about the culture and history of the city. The food was great and the...

We go to Faustos normally for birthday dinners. It is expensive (compared to other Hungarian restaurants), but it is worth. We are vegetarian and unfortunately they do not have any vegetarian option on the menu any more, but the chef offers us a quite wide range of dishes. I have never had any disappointing experience. The waiters are really polite... More

I think you pay a bit for the nice drapery and decor here. But the food was great. I thought my gnocchi were light as a feather - and no fuss was made when I asked for more cheese than you would ever expect anyone to need on their plate. Also, the wine we had was so delicous I took... More
