Macesz Bistro is an Eastern European bistro in the Old Jewish district of Budapest. It offers the hidden and well known treasures of the Hungarian and Jewish cuisines, with traditional and reimagined courses for their guests. The continuously updated menu is ensured by chef Ákos Tasnádi, beyond the á la carte assortment the daily offer’s seasonal specialties diversify the selection.

We take great care of assembling the wine list, offering from the best domestic wineries with some specialities.

We reopened Macesz after the pandemic in the spring of 2022. We can not wait to meet again our haunters and new guests as well.

The restaurant is suitable for exclusive events with up to 60 people as well.

Macesz Bistro is one of the most exciting culinary spots in downtown Budapest, an excellent choice for a romantic dinner, a family lunch or a business meeting.

    Terrible service, our space in the table was very small and when we tried to solve it, the waiter was extremely rude.

    Locale dall’atmosfera molto carina situato nel quartiere ebraico. Ci sono stata la sera di Natale con la mia famiglia e abbiamo mangiato benissimo. Ottimo il gulasch, il pollo alla paprika, la coscia di agnello, la torta flódni e la palinka alle prugne. Gentilissimo anche il cameriere che ci ha servito, è stato molto paziente considerando che eravamo una grande tavolata. Consigliato, ci tornerei!
