Here are the top ten Hungarian restaurants in 2017
According to szeretlekmagyarorszag.hu, the Volkswagen-Dining Guide’s Restaurant of the Year prizes were awarded recently. The popular Costes led by Chef Eszter Palágyi was chosen as the best restaurant for the third time (after 2009 and 2012).
It was the 13th time that the Dining Guide’s Restaurant of the Year prize was awarded. The professional jury visited and evaluated Hungarian restaurants throughout the year. During the evaluation, they considered aspects like the atmosphere of the restaurant, the quality of ingredients, the preparation and serving of the dishes etc.
The winner of the main prize, the popular Michelin-starred Costes, led by Eszter Palágyi, received 93 points. According to the evaluation of the jury, it’s one of Hungary’s most stable kitchens, which managed to stay unchanged after getting the Michelin-star in 2016. The kitchen of Hungary’s first Michelin-starred restaurant is led by Eszter Palágyi. Former executive chef Miguel Vieira doesn’t have a word in the operation of the restaurant anymore, so the Hungarian chef can put a bigger emphasis on Hungarian specialities.

- Costes Restaurant
