when:
2026.03.12. (Thursday) – 2026.03.29. (Sunday), across multiple cities and venues, DiningCity rolls out the 29th National Restaurant Week, featuring roughly 200 top Hungarian restaurants with special three-course menus starting at $19.10 (service included). Early reservations for DiningCity newsletter readers open on February 23, 2026.
For 18 days, quality dining lets down its guard. Top-category restaurants serve fixed-price three-course menus from $19.10, premium spots from $24.65, and exclusive venues from $30.15, all inclusive of service. Some participants go even broader with expanded selections for a modest surcharge, making it easier to try signature dishes without the usual sticker shock.
More than 200 venues join in, many ranked among Hungary’s Top 100 in local food guides. Fifteen carry international Michelin recommendations, including Bib Gourmand distinctions. Expect each kitchen to showcase its greatest hits: refined crowd-pleasers and chef favorites, all bundled into sharp, fixed-price lineups built for discovery.
Menus dig deep into the larder. Alongside Hungarian Grey cattle, you might find Namibian zebu, mouflon, marrow bones, rabbit thigh, pig’s ear, or Burgundy snails. From the sea come lobster, tiger prawns, yellowtail kingfish, red tuna steak—and even frog legs. Classic luxuries are everywhere, with truffles, foie gras, and beef tartare in multiple takes. As tradition dictates, kitchens also prepare for special diets: gluten-free, lactose-free, sugar-free, vegetarian, and vegan options appear across the board.
Fans of global flavors can book Lebanese, Indian, Japanese, Georgian, Mexican, Moroccan, and more, right alongside traditional Hungarian champions. Fusion menus pepper the field, and there’s ample choice whether you’re meat-forward, plant-based, or navigating allergies.

A fixture with more than a decade behind it, Restaurant Week is the friendly gateway to exclusive dining without the exclusive bill. Each restaurant’s planned menu is visible during booking on the event website, helping diners match their tastes—Hungarian, French, Moroccan, American, Italian, Mexican, Asian, plus vibrant fusion—before they lock in a table. Reservations are only possible online, and capacity is limited to keep standards high. The feast runs March 12–29, 2026.
