UNCENSORED Restaurant Budapest — Restaurant in Budapest

We were expecting more from this kind of price range restaurant.

The food was nice, with some nice discovery, especially for Hungarian, Russian and Brazilian dishes. Food was well dressed in the plate. The pairing with the beverages was good. I was nicely surprised by the cocktails recipe.

The problem was about quantities. Dishes were very small and even with 7 dishes we had to ask for bread and butter not to be hungry (I tried different restaurant from Michelin guide and each time I was not hungry anymore after the 4th or 5th dish).

We were expecting more also from the animation. We really liked the one for Russia and China, but the other ones were missing something. We found that the quality of the video was not so good (for Hungary for example) and some animation was quiet amateur (like how the astronaut was moving on the moon). We would have preferred a video of the country or some landscape to feel like we were in the country (Spain animation was disappointing). The songs were playing on a loop, it could have been better to have some different songs per countries.

Regarding the service it was good. The waitress was really kind and we felt well welcomed. The entrance of the restaurant was unique, we really liked it.

To sum up it is a nice and original restaurant where you can try uncommon food. The concept is really interesting but can be improved in terms of animation. However prices are not justified. We payed 215€ per person (all included). I would say that it worth half of this price. I had some better experiences for 100€...

I am torn on this restaurant because there is so much potential but some parts of the experience don’t live up to the expectations. The experience takes you dining through several countries with corresponding images rendered on screens around you. Some representations were beautifully done (Brazil, Russia) and some were horrible with bad image quality (Hungary and the US which was on the moon for some reason). Some images also had inconsistencies for example putting a ying and yang (which is chinese)for a Japanese experience. The food was also very divisive with some parts of the experience being delicious (the Russian experience, Hungary and Brazil, even though that last one was not a desert from Brazil) and some not so good (like the tuna tataki which was overcooked in the Japan experience, and the American experience where the cooking style of the beef did not fit with the American style and extremely fatty. Lastly, the wine experience pairing for us was a miss because although it was delicious wine from Hungary, there were a lot of missed opportunities to use wine from the countries represented within the experience, they called it an international wine experience but only had 1 non Hungarian wine for the US. Lastly, for the experience we got, the price was extremely expensive for our perception of the experience. So go if you want an interesting unique experience but be prepared for it to have some faults and to spend a lot of...

I feel like I should preface this review by saying that the food is not exactly bad per se, I guess? It is however in my opinion extremely lackluster.

But before getting into that let’s start with the positives, which basically boils down to two specific things. One is the entrance, the other the visuals (both the screens and the presentation of the food). That’s it. A cool entrance and some eye candy. Not that impressive considering what you pay for it, which leads me into what made me even write this review in the first place, the value proposition.

I realize that for some people paying 100 Euros for a meal is not a big deal, but for me that’s quite a hefty bill, hence when eating out at this price range I do a lot of research before committing. Which is exactly what I did this time as well. The reviews for Uncensored is unfortunately misleading.

The food is definitely not on par with what it should be at this price range. The flavors are bland, some ingredients are over or undercooked and the combinations are just not that exciting. The service was also questionable. There weren’t any glaring issues with it, but it felt sloppy and uninspired.

All in all if you’re fine with overpaying mediocre food by a mile and want to try what could have been a really cool concept, go ahead. But in my opinion it’s just a huge waste of money. Not...
