I ordered chicken paprikash and cottage cheese + breaded pork chops. The pork chops were delicious (and why I'm rating this a 2/5 instead of a 1/5) but the paprikash was very underwhelming, it was a little cold, and I probably shouldn't have ate it, since I vomited when I got home. I'm a novice cook and I've made paprikash following a recipe a few times, and I really enjoyed it, so I figured why not? But it was really underwhelming, I do hate to leave bad reviews, and hey, maybe it was because I came in late at night (like 6:20pm) so maybe they were just tired towards the end of the shift, who knows, but I found it very underwhelming. I believe a bit of heavy cream would pair well with the paprikash to bring out the flavor more, personally.
Service and atmosphere was on point, I rated both of those a 5/5. But people come to restaurants for food, and for $48 for 2 people, you want it to be money well spent. I can't say I spent my money well here, I think this region of PA has been very disappointing for restaurants, the only restaurant in this area that I'd go back to after trying like 20+ is Thai Kitchen. Not an ad, but I was thinking in my head "damn, I could've paid 50% less, and have much better food!"
Anyways, if you do go here, I would recommend doing it...
Read moreWe had a party of 9. It seemed like everyone got a different menu item. Everybody liked their food. I had the Hungarian gypsy pork. It is 2 pieces of garlic-fried boneless pork chops served with homemade mashed potatoes and green beans. I was able to substitute the green beans for apple sauce. It was so good that I ate the whole thing. Over half of us had to take the rest of the food home because the portions were so big. Then for dessert I had the crepes (palacsinta); It consists of thin dough - fried in a frying pan - and then filled with one of eight fillings, rolled up and topped with powdered sugar. I got the cinnamon sugar filling. If you are ever in Hellertown, I definitely recommend you stop in and try their great Hungarian food. You will be...
Read moreMy wife and I came here on a snowy Saturday night. We have always wanted to come here as she used to eat homemade Hungarian food growing up. The restaurant is simple, is BYOB, and has a cozy feel to it. There was one waiter who was also the host. He was very friendly. The food was fantastic! We had the pierogis that tasted homemade and they were huge. I had breaded pork chops with Hungarian noodles, which had bacon and cottage cheese. My wife had chicken paprikash, which is chicken in a sour cream sauce with Nokedli (egg noodles). We ended with palatschinke, which are similar to crepes but not as sweet. Nothing was overly salty. It wasn’t busy and we sat immediately but apparently they get super busy on a Saturday night. We will definitely...
