Costes first opened its doors in 2008 on Ráday Street, known as one of the important gastronomic centers of Budapest. As a result of two years of hard work, in 2010 we managed to win the title of the country's first Michelin-starred restaurant, which we have proudly and unbrokenly kept ever since.
That is why our special dishes are prepared with heart and soul, only from high-end ingredients, worthy of the highest recognition of gastronomic exclusivity and sophistication. Our dishes are characterized by so-called boho elegance and sometimes avant-garde, sometimes surprising combinations. It is no coincidence that our restaurant is often referred to as the stronghold of Hungarian fine dining based in Ráday street.
So if you would like to take part in an unforgettable gastronomic experience, Costes welcomes you with inimitable, exclusive and tasty dishes!
The Chef
The patron chef of our restaurant, Jenő Rácz is not only an expert in various culinary techniques, but also a huge fan of them. Despite his young age, he already has a very serious professional background behind him. For years, he learned the craft from the world's best chefs, in the world's most important gastronomic capitals, including London, Copenhagen, Singapore and Shanghai.
For him, his work is a real profession, which he does with all his heart and soul which is also confirmed by countless awards and professional recognitions. His name may be familiar to many, as he also appeared in one of the most popular Hungarian cooking shows (Konyhafőnök) as a mentor and jury member.
The position of head chef in our restaurant is held by Levente Koppány. He worked as a sous chef in our kitchen in 2019, and previously proved his skills in many Michelin-starred restaurants in London.
