Wonderful Restaurant! - Edit
Couldn’t recommend enough!
Read moreVisited here on a whim and was amazed by how wonderful the food was and the huge variety of cakes and sweet treats that were available!
Had the seitan nuggets platter which came with salad, homemade tomato ketchup and small roasted potatoes - it was delicious!
Then afterwards we tried the dobos cake & also the white chocolate & raspberry cake, both were incredible! Couldn’t believe they were vegan!
The cakes were hard to choose from as they had such a variety, this included 2 types of Mille Fuielle, Russian cake, Lemon Puff cake, apple pie, different variety of cheesecakes, mignon and LOTS more!
Their pistachio ice cream was also dreamy!!!😍
Didn’t get a photo of anything as we ate it so quickly!😂

Incredible flavour! - Edit
I’m still thinking about the cold zucchini pasta. The taste was so reminiscent of sitting at the dinner table eating the stuffing out of a chicken with my sister talking about how it was always the best part of eating a chicken (ew). Seriously though, everything we had here was amazing, the portions were fair, as were the prices. My biggest critique is of the wait times for being served and food coming out. It felt like it took quite some time for us to place our orders, the staff seemed a little confused and quite new, and were prioritising rude customers who were seated after us instead. They were very friendly though, and any downside is so worth it to eat here. Delicious!

Was tasty, but disappointed the menu doesn't include wine. Portions of dishes was good. Not sure if the Hungarian food really tastes as the vegan versions but it's cool attempt.

Amazing!!! - Edit
Gorgeous and classy restaurant with very friendly staff. My Hungarian friend loved the gulash soup (personally I found it a bit too soupy, but I'm a German who's used to the thicker, saucier "Gulasch"), and our platter for 2, even though it was pretty heavy on the carbs side, was amazing. The mushroom "gyros", the cheese cutlets and the tartare sauce was especially nice, I loved how everything had a very handmade feel to it, very OG vegan restaurant food where they make everything in-house. The cake selection is mind-blowing, the creamy chestnut and "cheese" cakes were my favourites, the poppy seed one was a bit too dry for me. I would definetely come back to this place tho.

Delicious vegan Hungarian food - Edit
We visited in December 2023, we had the bean goulash soup and the Sunny Lavish Platter for 2. The soup was lovely and the platter was delicious, though depending on how you were feeling the platter is quite carb heavy/fried food based but was well needed after a long time traveling and a lot of walking. Nice restaurant and ambience and the staff were very nice.

Healthy food, very nice staff - Edit
We discovered this nice vegan restaurant in Budapest, very friendly staff and good choice of food. The soup was so tasty, highly recommended.
Read more1 point of criticism:
We missed various and green vegetables at the menu. There is a salad buffet but only cold salad.
And for me there was too much fried stuff.
Furthermore I ordered a dish from the menu explicit without Seitan but was I got was Seitan.
Apart from this, good place for eating vegan food.

Amazing experience - Edit
Napfényes has played an important role for veganism in Hungary as one of the pioneer restaurants, therefore I always wanted to come here to check it out. I went with my friends for a celebration and the dishes we tried were all delicious.
Read moreFirst I had the babgulyás, which was rich and flavourful. Although I haven’t eaten the original version for a long time now, I can tell it’s very well made and similar. For the main, I ate the fried seitan with steak fries, which were both great.
For dessert, I asked for a somlói galuska. It was so so good, I wanted to ask for a second plate! The sponge cake was moist and creamy, not too sweet which I appreciated. My only criticism is that the walnut pieces were quite bad quality, since it had the skin on which made it rather dry. No issues with nuthsell, however.
Overall, I’m very happy with the food I had and would recommend this place to anyone!
Pros: Good location, Delicious food
Cons: Lack of local, Hungarian dishes, Old-school atmosphere

deteriorating quality - Edit
I am very sorry to have to report a negative experience with this restaurant. We have been ordering a weekly menu from them for a year now because of the low price, but the quality is terrible. The vegetables are often half-raw, and the seasoning of the food is almost completely absent, except for the anise flavor, which is in pieces in the food and you have to pick it out while eating, which is quite unpleasant.
Read moreFurthermore, it is also noticeable that the weekly menu apparently remains unchanged, as if it were just copy-pasted every week. And the names of the dishes do not always cover the same recipe, so it is unpredictable what the ordered dish will be.
Overall, I would say that what I experienced at Napfenyes does not meet my expectations, and I hope that the management of the restaurant will take these feedbacks into account in order to improve.
Pros: can order the weekly menu ahead of time, cheap
Cons: unpleasant taste, macros are not considered, not nutritional

High protein, good meat/cheese plate - Edit
The restaurant is perfect for a high-protein meal. The main platter is full of meat, cheese etc. substitutes (seitan, tofu etc.). Everything was very good and filling. I had a raspberry/cream/chocolate cake and it was also tasty.
Read moreThe staff is very kind and the place is central and calm and there is shadow for hot summer days.
Pros: High protein, good vegan substitutes, Wide range of vegan options (salty and sweet), Good cakes

Good food, nice location - Edit
A little off the main strip, we sat outside in a quiet shady street for some food. I ordered the Gyros which was plentiful and very tasty. My partner had a cake which he enjoyed. It was nice and quiet outside and we popped in to pay and noted that the inside was bright, airy and clean.
Read morePros: Good quiet location , Good portion size, Good cake choice
Cons: Not the cleanest toilets

Absolutely NOT worth the hype - Edit
Went here expecting a nice flavourful goulasch since the reviews were great. Was super disappointed when the soup came out served in a bucket (?), and it was flavorless and very watery, and had some weird mushy dough. Not even bread was included. Also got the "lemonade" which was a clear yellow liquid, made like a cordial concentrate. I looked at other people's food in the restaurant and not one dish looked appetizing either. Don't go here!! Save your money for better food.
