On the menu, you may find traditional Hungarian dishes. For example, you can choose from traditional pork goulash or farm chicken soups, or you may taste pork marrow toast for a starter. There are Hungarian classics like “Letcho” tomato, onion, pepper ragout & Hungarian sausage, pork stew or pottages made of potato, spinach or lentil. There are many types of schnitzels: chicken thigh, pork, cheese, mushroom, liver or hake. Choosing parsley potato as a side can make you feel as if you were sitting in the kitchen of a Hungarian grandmother on a Sunday afternoon. As for Hungarian grandmas: you may eat Grandma’s pancakes or poppy seed dumplings with vanilla custard as a dessert.

Fekete Holló in 1976:

The restaurant has a terrace. Therefore, when the weather is nice, you may taste some good Hungarian beers or a traditional Hungarian fröccs (spritzer = wine + soda water mixed in various proportions) there. Of course, there are draught beers and glass beers as well.

Under 10 Országáz Street, there was a restaurant already in 1930. Pál Alpek opened it when he was only 20. In the 1960s, it reopened as Fekete Holló. Back then, its menu was handwritten, and its chef’s name was Rózsi néni (Aunt Rose). Locals and young university students were among its most frequent guests. Its most popular dish was fish soup, stew and Aunt Rose’s famous Hungarian cottage cheese dumpling.

HERE you can find the opening times. The restaurant has two rooms and can seat 60 people inside, and an additional 60 guests on the terrace, ittlakunk.hu wrote.

The restaurant hopes it will be a new headquarters for locals because they get a 25% price reduction from the not-too-high prices. HERE you may check out some photos taken by turizmus.com which shows the restaurant has a chance to become popular again.
