The best Hungarian restaurants Transylvania & Carpathian Mountains

This is one of two restaurants in the Tempo guesthouse. Not far from the main square, this is an excellent address, with a warm and elegant rustic decor, featuring beautiful wood panelling and brick walls adorned with attractive ceramics... The large open-plan dining room is also very pleasant, all in wood and dotted with touches of greenery. It's one of the best places to enjoy quality Transylvanian cuisine, with a Hungarian accent: bean soup, goulash and more. And to make matters worse, the restaurant regularly hosts traditional music concerts.

It's the good address in the area. "Le manoir sicule" is a charming hotel-restaurant, located in the village of Colțești, neighboring Rimetea. It's recently built but traditional in style, furnished with beautiful painted wooden furniture. The dining room is large and warm. Here you'll eat local, Romanian and Hungarian specialties, such as the highly acclaimed homemade goulash. There's also a large garden with children's playground equipment. Ask to climb the tower: it offers a superb 360-degree view, including of the Sicule Stone.

If you're looking for a taste of traditional Hungarian cuisine, you've come to the right place! This historic building once belonged to the illustrious Rhédey family and now houses the restaurant of the same name. While soups and goulash are the stars of the menu, the other dishes are not lacking in interest. Portions are generous and service impeccable. The establishment has a loyal following among Cluj's Hungarian community, a sign of authentic cuisine. In fine weather, a pleasant terrace overlooks Piața Unirii and the Catholic Cathedral.

This Hungarian restaurant, named after a famous café in Budapest, serves excellent Magyar and Transylvanian specialities in a cosy, vintage and trendy atmosphere. The service is perfect, the Hungarian, Romanian or international wine list is very extensive, not to mention the cuisine, very successful. Of course, you can eat the famous goulash there. But the menu, which is quite tight, offers other meat and fish specialities, as well as a good choice of vegetarian dishes. One of the best restaurants in town.
