Our history
The name GUNDEL could rightly stand for the history of modern Hungarian gastronomy and hospitality. Károly Gundel refined the Hungarian cuisine and created delicious dishes of his own taste. His pioneering work placed Hungary on the world map of gastronomy. The New York Times wrote that the Gundel Restaurant did more for Hungary’s reputation than a shipload of tourist brochures.
Károly Gundel also documented gastronomic history. He collected local recipes all over the Carpathian Basin as Hungary’s world famous composers Kodály and Bartok recorded Hungarian folk music. He is the author of cook books translated into dozens of languages.
The Restaurant earned his shine since Károly Gundel opened this house in 1910. Its reputation was strong enough to survive the stormy decades of war and communist nationalisation. Having been privatised in 1992 the GUNDEL took back its deserved position in Hungary as the country’s leading restaurant.
Genuine Hungarian food or a selection of international dishes are offered to the guests with immaculate service in an unparalleled atmosphere. The Gundel Band plays to satisfy the highest expectations in a hall decorated with the finest paintings of the best Hungarian masters. A careful selection of wines from all Hungarian resorts as well as from all over the world will make the meal for you a memorable event
The team
These days 120 skilled people work at the banquet events and in the restaurant of the Gundel. They are committed to serve you to your utmost contentment in line with the principles of the late Károly Gundel. Their dedication resulted in a number of revisiting guests and the reputation of the Gundel House is continuously increasing for more than a century, all over the world. Executive Chef Gábor Merczi tunes the menu finely with the best care that is completed by his skilful sous-chefs and kitchen staff. The Hungarian Award-winning Sommelier Mihály Fabók pairs the best wines from Hungary and from other countries with each fabulous meal.
Awards
The renewed Gundel Restaurant is still worth to its reputation, our recent recognitions.
