Performers are engaged and atmospheric, the musical interplay is also a classic; if the dance time can be more, or add a few explanations is better! Interaction with the audience is also appreciated!

Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re thrilled you enjoyed the show and our crew. We really appreciate the recommendation!
Very poor quality show. Very tight room. Horrible view to show. Bad service.
Great evening with super dancing and music. Only 4 stars as the main course was served warm. Staff very friendly and helpful, not overly expensive.
Thank you for your review! We are glad you enjoyed the music, dancing, and friendly service. We appreciate your comment about the main course and will share it with our team, and we hope to welcome you again for an even better experience.
Very few dances, no room for a real show. Musicians play music that may please guests but they are international hits and not Hungarian music. Everything drags on in the hope of getting the audience to consume. The dancers are excellent and the establishment is good enough in itself.
We enjoyed the experience. Signs on walls had some interesting facts about local foods drinks and customs. The servers were friendly and the space was like a wine cellar . The music two violins and base was very nice and the musicians had fun playing. The dancers, two couples were energetic and engaging and close up. They danced maybe 6-8 dances in two sets with one costume change. We enjoyed getting to balance wine bottle on our heads for pictures. We had goulash with our tickets but you are also able to order off the menu so we got dessert too!

It’s wonderful to hear that the food and friendly service added to your experience. We really appreciate you sharing such a detailed and positive review of your visit!
The host who greeted us were cheerful and welcoming. The food was tasty and appropriate amount. The dancers were so fun to watch and had great chemistry. We enjoyed the fast pace of the dancing, very energetic performance! The musicians were wonderful as well! We really enjoyed the violinist who really engaged his audience.
Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We’re glad the host made you feel welcome and that you enjoyed the tasty food and energetic performances. It’s great to hear you especially appreciated the violinist’s engagement. We hope to see you again soon!
It is a tourist trap, very disappointing. The show lasts up to 30 minutes, the dancers and costumes are very ordinary, as is the meal.
What's the point of going to a dance show when you can't see the dancers from the waist down? The venue, which is one long aisle with tables and chairs on both sides, is not constructed for this kind of show. When we asked the waiter if the dancers were ever going to come down to our end of the aisle he said no. Then he said, "I know. That sucks for you." No kidding. We left halfway through.
Thank you for letting us know about your experience during the program, as it gives us the opportunity to improve our service. We are deeply sorry that you did not have the experience you were looking for. We will do our best to make sure that everyone enjoyes the evening.
I was informed this would be in a theater with many dancers on stage and more musicians. Instead , it was a cabaret setting with 2 couples doing a few dances and a 3 musicians. The music was partly Hungarian but mostly not. The music and dancing were fine, but not what was advertised. It would not have been so disappointing if we had known what to expect. False advertising
