Everything was very enjoyable. The warm welcome, great table on the top deck, lovely hostess staff, every dish was delicious and the wine was a reasonable price. The views of the early evening Buda and Pest with iconic landmarks moved into a fairyland - like bonanza of the lit up riverside and city buildings. Would definitely recommend the Premium dinner choice.

    It was a wonderful experience; we sat upstairs by the piano, the food was truly delicious and more than enough, the staff is incredibly kind, friendly, and polite, and they speak English well, there’s also a place where you can smoke a cigarette, and what was really considerate was that if you went out to smoke, they waited to serve your meal. Truly top-notch service. The boat tour started at 8:00 p.m., which was perfect timing—first the cruise and dinner, and then we got to see everything lit up. The Parliament building sparkled; we were able to take beautiful photos and videos. And once again, my compliments to the staff ❤️

    It was a Unique experience. All my friends enjoyed it very much. The waiters did a great job and was able to speak both English and Hungarian. The piano music was lovely, but it was a little too busy and noisy to be able to focus on it. The view was great and we were happy to be able to open the windows. It would be a great idea to point out the famous landmarks for the guests, especially the ones don't know Budapest. The food was good, but need some improvements: The tócsni was swimming in oil and overcooked, the brownie taste good, but very dry on its own, it's better with ice cream or more sauce than what was provided. We expected to have a bit of water with the food, more than just a sip, that was given to us.

    The cruise was beautifully executed. On boarding and check-in were very simple and well organized. The seating of people based on your location of table was clear and organized. Unfortunately, they allow smoking at the front of the boat, which meant that your beautiful views were inhibited by smokers
