Ceasar salad not really worth it - yoghurt Dressing and salad was just lettuce. Frutti di Mare a lot of Mussels, which was nice. Taste OK. Service OK

Google reviews brought us here, and overall it turned out to be a good dining experience. The restaurant has a pleasant atmosphere and is a nice spot for those craving Italian food in Budapest. The menu offers a wide variety of options, making it easy for groups to find something they enjoy. The food was actually quite good. We ordered a salad, calamari, pizza, pasta, and dessert, and all the dishes were enjoyable. The pizza was particularly satisfying, and the meal ended on a sweet note with a good dessert. Overall, the quality of the food met our expectations and left us happy. Service, however, was only so-so. It wasn’t bad, but it lacked the attentiveness and warmth that would have elevated the overall experience. That said, the food was definitely the highlight, and we would still recommend Gusto Napoletano to anyone looking for a good Italian meal in Budapest.

Gusto Napoléon impressed us with both its food and ambience, delivering a delightful Italian dining experience from start to finish. We started with the Aniello Pizza, which featured a beautifully baked crust with excellent texture and flavour. The pizza dough had the right balance of chewiness and crispness, making every bite enjoyable. The Fettuccine Alfredo was equally satisfying, cooked perfectly al dente and coated in a rich, creamy sauce that wasn't overly heavy. The Caesar con Pollo was fresh and well-balanced, while the Frittura di Pesce Misto offered a good variety of seafood with a light, crispy batter. For drinks, the Cherry Meggy and Raspberry Lemonade were refreshing accompaniments to the meal, providing a pleasant fruity contrast to the savoury dishes. Dessert was a highlight. The Cannolo Siciliano al Pistachio delivered a lovely combination of crisp pastry and creamy filling, while the Tiramisu was rich, smooth, and beautifully executed, providing a perfect ending to the meal. The restaurant's ambience was warm and inviting, making it an ideal place for a relaxed lunch or dinner. Combined with attentive service and quality food, Gusto Napoléon offers an authentic

AVOID!!! If you know how it tastes REAL Italian food avoid this. Unfortunately, a very disappointing experience. The restaurant feels like a typical tourist trap with no real focus on quality. We ordered tomato soup, which had almost nothing to do with tomatoes – it tasted more like a diluted broth with a hint of Hungarian goulash, and it was overly salty. The pizza was ok and edible, but also quite salty and mortadella was very lowcost type of ham. The fish, which was supposed to come with “grilled vegetables,” was served with what was clearly frozen mixed vegetables and fish was quite salty. The prices, however, are completely disproportionate to the quality of the food. Overall, it feels like an overpriced tourist trap rather than an authentic Italian dining experience. Second glass of wine as served in a glass for white wine with words…sure, you can pure to that glass. See all pictures as a proof. BUT I have to agree that the service was excellent and professional 👌🏼…they reacted professionally on my situation.

I visited Gusto Napoletano during my time in Budapest, and it genuinely exceeded my expectations. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere feels warm and inviting. It has that perfect mix of casual and authentic Italian dining without feeling overly polished or touristy. You can see the pizza oven and the preparation, which adds to the experience and gives you confidence that everything is being made fresh. The pizza itself was outstanding. The dough was clearly well-fermented, giving it that light, airy texture with a soft centre and beautifully puffed crust. The slight char from the wood-fired oven added a lot of flavour without being overpowering. I had a classic Margherita as well as another specialty pizza, and both were excellent. The ingredients really stood out, especially the tomato base, which tasted rich and balanced, and the mozzarella, which was fresh and creamy. What I appreciated most is that they didn’t try to overcomplicate things. It’s simple food done properly, which is exactly what Neapolitan pizza should be. Even the olive oil and finishing touches made a difference. Service was also very good. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and attentive without ho
