    Great atmosphere, very good food, large portions for very decent prices (even the small pho is difficult to eat in one go) and most of all, amazing staff. They make you feel at home. Make sure to try the ginger tea and the pork spring rolls, they are freshly made and very tasty.

    Authentic Vietnamese restaurant. The taste is good and food is seasoned reasonably. Yet not having the traditional papaya salad is a disappointment and also the glass noodle in soup came in very little portion while the fried rice noodle came in big size! I found some ingredients they put into the food are creative but not necessarily pleasant, e.g local mushrooms. Their mango salad is good.

    If I could I’d rate this 6 stars! Best Chinese food in the town. We found Sen bistro by accident and we were so happy we did. We ate here twice and ordered takeout too. They have really good prices for two appetisers (dumplings and spring rolls) and two main dishes (two times egg fried rice) we paid around 20€. Employees were also really friendly and kind. I would recommend this place to everyone!

    Extremely tasty and delicious food. I highly recommend the meat steamed dumplings, the curry, the mango smoothie but everything that I tasted was good and the portions were good.

    I ordered the chicken pho (soup) and it was the most authentic flavoursome pho I’ve ever had. I rocked up here with a killer hang over and it put me straight. Vegan/vegetarian friendly too. Open late.

    Really great Vietnamese food. We came here twice for more. Prices are great. Service is quick. Can't ask for more!

    Home-style cooking with very friendly and accommodating waitstaff. We had dinner there on our first night in Budapest, and liked it so much after the that we want back for lunch on our second-to-last day.

    Nice decent vietnamese restaurant in the city center. The waiter was friendly and helpful by giving me the chili sauce and garlic water. I ordered seafood pho soup, it was nice and the ginger tea suited well with the weather because it was rainy when I was there. If you want to grab such vietnamese cuisine in the center of Budapest, you can consider this restaurant.

    Authentic Vietnamese dishes. Staff were friendly and had a lovely ambience.

    This is a nice business lunch place if you like fusion food (and/or want to avoid dishes that smell/taste too adventurous); I think their term for it was 'progressive' kitchen.. Exquisite decor and plates etc, the staff were really welcoming. Unfortunately, everything we chose initially on the menu (banh mi and bun cha) are no longer available. What we ordered, the taste was a little.. not traditional. The summer rolls (very well wrapped!) also contained egg and pickled carrots (which I love with banh mi/ bun cha.. but just not a fan of sour summer rolls 😐) and the sauce was very peanuty. The shrimp stir fry noodle dish didn't have a lot of shrimp and they were all strangely very orange; also there was no distinctive fish sauce taste.. The other meat dish was jerky-like and the dipping sauce was unexpectedly just soysauce.. The veggies and rice were good quality though.

    We ordered summer rolls, steamed meat and vegetable dumplings, crispy breaded prawns and crispy roast pork. Summer rolls and dumplings were very tasty, prawns not bad but average and roast pork was too dry.

  • 4/5 Bas van der B. 1 year ago on Google
    The pho was really good! 5 stars for the food. 2 stars for the waiting, while being at the restaurant. A lot of order came in from take a way while we had to wait 45min to get our food sitting at our table. We where the online one and ordered 2 main dishes.

    Staffs are very kind and friendly, Nice Service! Taste was also great but quantity could have been better with the price. Com Thit Quay was good, fried spring rolls was a bit disappointing compared to other place.

  • 5/5 Emma 1 year ago on Google
    Just amazing! The food is so fresh and full of flavour. Lots of vegan options and they were very accommodating to make a few changes to dishes. Can not recommend highly enough for good quality fresh tasty authentic Vietnamese food. I had the garlic tofu and it was amazing!

  • 5/5 Uroš K. 1 year ago on Google
    Very tasty dishes, big portions and enough options for vegans. We had a nuddle soup with bok choy, mango salad, stir-fried veggies with rice and tofu in garlic sauce. The latter was a dish joined from two dishes and they were kind enough to do it for us. The service is very friendly and I'm coming here often now.

  • 5/5 Adam J. 1 year ago on Google
    I was really surprised how good the food was. We just jumped in with our two years daughter. The amount of veggies and rice was absolutely my favorite ratio. The staff were kind and polite. The atmosphere was great. I didn't care about that the greens are plastic. Just looked nice. Compared to the price, I recommend the place and what we eat. Next time I'll try Vietnamese soups.

  • 5/5 Carlos S. 1 year ago on Google
    Really good asian food. We went there twice during our weekend in Budapest. Pad Thai was very tasty and similar to what you get in Thailand, and the soups were big and delicious. Service is friendly and warm. Good prices, and beautiful decoration.

    Sen Bistro is a great choice for lunch/dinner for affordable prices. The waitress was very friendly and nice. All the service was fast and there is no need to wait for a dish long time. (Photo: Pad Thai)
