“I don’t know how others feel, but I honestly can’t remember the last time I ate truly good, authentic Hungarian food in a restaurant — the kind that doesn’t just claim to be Hungarian, but actually brings back real home-style flavors and traditions, presented in a lighter, more effortless way, just as we’d enjoy the iconic dishes of our childhood today.
This experience is possible.
The three owners and long-time friends — former banker Dániel Szabó, interior designer Petra Nikoletti, and Tamás Szalontay, who has been in hospitality since high school — run Szaletly with heart and soul, in a wonderfully fortunate partnership with Executive Chef Dániel Bernát and Restaurant Manager Zsolt Forgó.
A fun fact: the building has operated as a hospitality venue in the 14th district since 1907.”
WE LOOK FORWARD TO WELCOMING YOU!
Szaletly Vendéglő és Kert is a refreshing meeting point at the gateway of Zugló, where everyone can feel at home.
In a light and pleasant atmosphere, we offer modern Hungarian dishes to our guests.
Our guiding principles: fresh and high-quality ingredients, environmental awareness, modern techniques, and respect for tradition.
Our chef, Dániel Bernát, carefully selects ingredients from local producers and prepares them with exceptional attention, ensuring that only the finest dishes reach our guests’ plates.
