Pierrot Cafe & Restaurant

There was a bit of an issue with our booking because when we arrived at the booked time, we were told that the manager was supposed to call me and inform the cancellation due to a last minute wedding. I checked my spams and all inbox, nothing was confirmed, in fact, Open Table sent a reminder a day prior. Regardless, the waiter gave us a spot and asked if we’re okay with eating in 1.5 hour so with sour faces we did sit. After that everything turned out fantastic. The waiter was such a kind and generous young man, he paid attention to everything we needed, was seeking our comfort and pleasure in dining to the maximum. The food was super delicious (starter, main, dessert), the plating was gorgeous and creative and our seat still had a fine enough view to the garden. Price wise it is not 20k HUF per person, I left paying 128 euros (51K forint) for 2 people and we shared one starter, only one of us had dessert (we didn’t eat the most expensive nor the least expensive main) and we didn’t drink alcohol or coffee. Check menu before you book and check the booking status before you get going to your event.

Pierrot in Buda Castle is a total gem! After a busy day exploring the Buda Castle, it felt like stepping into an oasis calm, beautiful, and full of charm. The food was amazing, the atmosphere lively, and the service top notch. Huge shoutout to our servers Gellért and Levi, their wine and food recommendations, friendliness, and attention to detail made our night unforgettable. Highly recommend! Can't wait to go back! Amazing

Wonderful garden in the backyard. Delicious food for good price compared to atmosphere & quality. There was also a piano player that evening, who was one of the best piano players I have ever heard.

Very nice hole in the wall that should be visited if you are in the castle district, offering up tasteful Italian/Hungarian dishes with great selection of wine. Beautiful setting that had live piano music at the time and nice outdoor seating away from the street. Our waiters Gellért and Levi also went above and beyond to make our dining experience memorable.

Loved the place. We sat outside in the courtyard. Food was excellent and our waiter was so kind and helpful. He was plesent and everything happend smoothly. Atmosphere were relaxing, piano was played inside but not loud. My husband have very serious a celery allergy and they prepaired all the food he wanted with out celery. We will definitely come back and we recommed this restaurant to others as well. Remember to taste Palinka

This was by far the nicest restaurant we went to during our short stay in Budapest. A hidden gem. My partner who had tried goulash at 2 other restaurants said their Goulash at Pierrot was a cut above the rest. We decided to go here on our last night as we knew it was a pricier restaurant than some of the others we visited. However it was worth it - however you get what you pay for three fold. There is a three course set menu offered also. Pierrot was the only restaurant where I had a desert and their creme brûlée was divine. Situated by Buda castle it’s easy to get to by bus. The restaurant walls have pictures of stars who have eaten there and we had fun trying to guess their names. The resident pianist set the mood also. Loved their sugar free raspberry lemonade also (note it’s raspberry and rosemary but I asked for fresh mint instead). Service and attention to detail was excellent and the toilets were clean. Suggest you book.

Delicious food in a beautiful courtyard garden. Live piano was an added extra touch. Gellance who served me was extremely polite, helpful and friendly.

Wonderful lunch. Beautiful green courtyard away from the masses. Great service from Henrik. Enjoyed a lovely Caesar Salad.
