Cozy little restaurant - Edit
It is cozy little restaurant located nearby Oktogon square in a cellar. There is free WIFI. The food was tasty, the portions were fine. It is a little dark so it is cozy especially during winter time, but in summer there is no outside sitting space. The waitress was friendly but not really helpful. We arrived during the afternoon opening hours, when they just opened, so there was no oily smell.
Pros: Tasty food, Good price, WIFI
Cons: Bit dark

Cozy vegan dinner place - Edit
Kozmosz is a vegan restaurant located at Hunyadi ter, a few minute walk from Oktogon. They offer vegan remakes of standard dishes (goulash, hamburger, burrito, etc.). It’s a nice cozy place, ideal for having a tea or cake with friends or have a romantic dinner with your partner. It’s suitable for bigger groups too. Their food tastes good but they don’t take the extra mile to serve something special, some of their offerings is very boring. The staff is very friendly though, and the place has a nice atmosphere. Since the kitchen and the restaurant share the same space, the place often smells oil.
Pros: friendly staff, suitable for bigger groups, open in the evening
Cons: boring, standard food, smelly

we went there for lunch, food was served really fast. the burger was one of the best we've tried, Hungarian stew was good too, the seitan a little bit too though for me.
Pros: easy to find, all vegan, friendly staff.

Great food! - Edit
I had the Seitan Stew and boyfriend had the Hawaiian Burger. The stew was amazing. Cubed seitan in a tomato based sauce with Hungarian spices, with Spätzle. The burger was also good and came with fries and a side salad. Service was a bit slow but friendly and I think we had the misfortune of arriving after a big rush of people. Will definitely return! Also has free wifi :)

Delicious - Edit
The service could be more friendly. Also there is no possibility to sit outside, the restaurant is located in the basement. Might be cozy during winter but in the summer it's a bit too dark there. But I was really satisfied with the food. WiFi was also working well.
Pros: Food, WiFi
Cons: Service, No possibility to sit outside

Excellent restaurant near Andrassy ut - Edit
Kozmosz is a very cozy restaurant located near the Terror Museum, in a very calm square. We came there since they offer gluten-free dishes and we were very pleased with our dinner. The food was very tasty and the proportions were generous. And the service was fairly quick.
We definitely recommend this restaurant if you are in the neighborhood.

Really cozy restaurant - Edit
The restaurant was very cozy and with warm ambience. I had polenta pizza from the daily menu and my bf a Bean burger from the list. My polenta pizza was something I haven't even heard of before but was quite nice with a lot of cheese on it. The bean burger was ok but, have to say, a bit dry. Anyway, we liked this place a lot and will visit later too!
Pros: Good menu, Reasonable prices, Cozy cafeteria

The cafe is very cozy, right next to the terror house. I only had time for a cake and a drink and the cake was really good! The prices were very affordable too!
Pros: Cheap, Delicious
Cons: Could do with more cake choice

Could have been better! - Edit
We were pretty excited to taste some traditional Hungarian food after reading the reviews, but were pretty disappointed!
The menu was very basic, with approx 2 'traditional' meals as options, the other dishes were basic pastas and Mexican!!??
Food tasted ok, however very basically cooked, similar taste and sauces on all dishes, with a canteen style sloppy presentation.
While I am all for taste over appearance, it was a shame that a restaurant with so much potential could not put a little more effort into making the sloppy dishes appalling!
We arrived late and staff were very keen to leave despite us leaving before the closing time....
Generally not a very good experience, we found many vegan and vegetarian options in the rest of the city on general menus with Veg and gluten free options clearly marked!
Pros: taste
Cons: not many options, no atmosphere, presentation

Decent - Edit
I had a traditional Hungarian 'meaty' meal. To be honest, it was a bit boring. It was a big plate with a lot of food, but it was basically pasta with some goulash, Not much variance in taste.
Pros: quite some choice
Cons: Bit boring

Vungarian - Edit
Very good option located a little bit in the north of downtown.
I specially liked that they make vegan versions of traditional hungarian dishes. I tasted the vegan goulash which was fantastic and the seitan stew which was very good. I also tried the seasonal dessert and was nothing special, here the place loses one star!
Pros: Vegan, Nice staff
Cons: None

Kozmosz? Kozmosz. - Edit
We ate there 4 times in 2 days the last time we visited Budapest. It speaks for itself I guess. Purely vegan, great menu, delicious burgers, daily soups, cakes, friendly staff. All in all a very pleasant experience. It's the kind of restaurant that is the first thing on your mind when you wake up in Budapest.
Pros: Fantastic food, Friendly English speaking staff
Cons: Underground
