Description: Karpatia carries on a tradition of over 120 years of fine dining. While the restaurant has experienced a number of changes in its lengthy history, Karpatia has always respected and warmly welcomed its guests and have provided first class meals that prompted many return visits. The current décor reflects the style of Hungary in the mid 1920's, when the Spolarich family purchased the restaurant.
Our meal consisted of three courses, starting with a duck soup flavored with white wine and saffron. Being adverse to red meat, I opted to pass on the young bull sirloin steak, but thoroughly enjoyed my substitute chicken prepared with creamed mushroom ragout and steamed vegetables. Dessert was a homemade poppy seed parfait laced with a rich cognac and sour cherry sauce.
Before meals, small groups may partake in a cocktail in one of the private reception areas adjoining the dining rooms. Akos Niklai, the current owner and caretaker of Karpatia, also runs the nearby art deco themed Premier Restaurant & Terrace, situated on the eternal Andrassy boulevard.
