Friendly staff, good food, and an inviting atmosphere with decent value. They offer the simplest…read moremenu I've seen at any restaurant, goulash! Everyone speaks at least some English, and there is plenty of seating, so you will probably not have to wait. I was served within minutes of sitting down with a steaming bowl of goulash that had a nice flavor with a hint of spiciness- perfect for a cold rainy day. I was not crazy about the bread, it was hard on the outside and very light, not thick or that tasty, basically only good dipped in goulash. The goulash bowls are fairly small portions, so you will need more than one bowl, which is where the confusion was for me. The menu states you get second helpings and I was charged for an entire additional bowl. With the challenge of communication, I relented and paid the tab. For that reason of frustration, I may not return. If I only had one day in Cologne I would not choose this restaurant, but otherwise would be worth the unique Hungarian experience.

It's very simple. Everyone goes here for gulash. You're not getting salad wurst or pommes here…read more There's really nothing on the menu either- it's either gulash with meat or just soup and each comes with a roll. You also get a little half bowl with it as a follow up. The taste is spicy and tasty and they pride themselves on not using any fake aromas or powders. The clientele have been coming here since they were kids wirh their parents or haven't been back in a while, and were also as pleasantly surprised to find it again. The wait staff are exuberantly friendly in an un-German yet authentic way (maybe it's in the Kölsch water). No veggie items, no credit cards or Apple Pay. This is as old school as it gets and let's keep it that way.
