About the restaurant

Rosenstein has an extensive Hungarian menu alongside Jewish culinary traditions. The selection includes soups, goose liver, fish, poultry, lamb, veal, beef and homemade desserts. It is a sit-down meal destination where guests can choose several courses.

Some dishes are tied to specific weekdays: cholent appears on Friday and Saturday, while other days feature Hortobagy pancakes, cabbage dishes or tripe. Jewish dishes do not make the restaurant kosher; pork, shellfish and meat-and-dairy combinations are also served.
