Little Italy pizzéria & söröző — Restaurant in Budapest

Loved this place but I came unprepared twice and Little Italy please accept my apologies. Accepting credit card payment is required by law but Little Italy would prefer you pay in cash...and have a big sign to that effect at their register. Dumb tourist that I am, I did not have cash the first time and forgot to bring cash on my second rather impromptu visit. I also assumed service was included as it is at every restaurant I've dined in Budapest in the last two months but after bringing my family to Little Italy again tonight I think I may be wrong. The waiter seemed a bit annoyed with us when we paid again with a card which then led me to wonder if no service charge is included in the bill (and maybe that is why cash is preferred?). We scrounged together all the bills and change we had and delivered to the waiter a meager tip of about 13 percent of our bill. This, too, may have been an error because we had multiple waiters and we didn't know who to deliver the tip to. I highly recommend this place for great pizza but please bring cash with you and don't stiff the wait staff like I did the first time. Again, Little Italy....please accept my humblest apologies. I promise when I return my family of three will make...

Pizza was delicious and authentic, prices are reasonable, or, I would say, cheaper than expected! BUT: though it is a mandatory in Hungary, you can not pay by card here. There is a sign on the wall in the front room stating they accept cash only but we didn't notice that as the waitress guided us inside immediately. On the other hand, none of the waiters mentioned this before service. (Still: it is illegal. The shop keeper/manager can say their terminal is out of order or so, but, theoretically, all places in Hungary now should offer the opportunity of paying by card /qr-code.) When I expressed I was dissatisfied with this the waitress simply lied to me! .. like NAV (National Tax and Cash Administration, Hungary) was there the other day and everything was found perfect, they did not mention this to them at all, etc. It was clear I was not a NAV-inspector so she was sure they can get away with that. Her confidence pissed me off!!! Though food was great I don't think I would want to return here. We were lucky we had...

This is THE best place for pizza! I lived in Budapest for 3 years and it took me nearly 2 years to come across this place, even though i lived a few hundred meters away!

Once I found it, I would eat here 2 times a week... I know, I know I'm a disgrace! But there are soooooo many reasons why I loved it so much. The staff are amazing, very are very friendly and speak fantastic English! The pizzas here are amazing and there is a huge list of different pizzas on the menu. There is a selection of spicy oils and garlic oils on the counter to smother your pizza in. The drinks are really nice. The restaurant is cosy and comfortable. The prices are fantastic value and the quality of food is superb.

I really can't recommend it enough. Local tip... If you are hoping to eat there after 6pm... You should probably book a table to avoid disappointment!

They also do takeaway and delivery... So there are plenty of options! Don't take as long as I did to discover...
