WORST "DINNER" EVER. End of story. Avoid. Salty, cold, fat, almost not eatable. Bad smell from the kitchen. After our complaint it is bad, no reaction.

Driving along the balaton it's not in season. Plenty of places are closed. This is one of the exceptions and they are actually very good. Good food at decent prices. Balatonakali is not far from tihany and a good place to explore the hill villages of the northern side of the lake. Highly recommend.

If you want to have a great view, well, this is a really good place for that, but you better not eat!Food is horrible. One of the waiters is simply stupid. Should be hidden somewhere...And this is a quite pricy place...

When arriving, they took us to their Hungarian Food Museum, where we got to know(and tasted!) some local Hungarian products.The manager and waiter were very passionate in explaining the dishes and wines, and their connection to local families and businesses.The food was amazing and the prices were not expensive. Definetly a restaurant to visit when at the Balaton Lake. Cheers from Belgium!Dear silkepinkhof,It is always a great pleasure to read such nice comments like yours, we are extremely glad you had such a memorable experience with us recently. Thank you for sharing this lovely review here, on TripAdvisor. It is good to know that your enjoyed your guided tour to the Hungarian Food Museum, hope you found our products tasty. Each and every one of our staff members is always at our guests’ disposal to tell a little about the history of the dishes and wines. They are truly very passionate! It is also very rewarding to hear that you found the food amazing and reasonably priced as well. It seems like you did really have a very pleasant dining experience with us. We all hope to have the opportunity to host you again in the near future. We will be waiting for you with the friendliest and warmest welcome anytime! Kind regards,Szt. Kristóf Management

Reviewed By Kingoushka

We were here for late dinner in May 2018, so the main season was just at the beginning. Not many people in any of the restaurants in Tihany. We have ordered two chicken salads, glass of wine and wheat beer called Edelweis. We get small pizza thingies aside the salads. They were really good, so we wanted to order another portion of them. Waitress said it is not possible. Well, ok, no problem.. though I would think you can be little creative if guest asks for something you don´t have on the menu... Another problem was when we ordered another pair of drinks. Waitress brought us normal Soproni beer in Edelweiss glass. My friend said it is not Edelweiss, waitress said "Oh my god" and rolled her eyes. OK, sorry for being so rude to be a guest who knows the difference between beer and beer :/ She brought the right beer and since that moment no one came to our table to ask if we want to order anything else. Only when I wanted to pay, another waitress came.It was really bad experience. I know the season is just beginning, you do not have many guests, which may made you a bit nervous, but ... hey, your guests are bringing your salary in their wallet.

Reviewed By Makar G

When you have found something really special - you want to keep the secret for yourself, and not share with everyone else. Just because it's your own special secret place.If you're on vacation in Balatonlelle, or staying on another side of Balaton Lake, or just passing by on autobahn and looking for a pitstop - drop everything and put Vitorlás Étterem on your roadmap. It's a must!I don't have enough words to describe this gastronomic shock, just come and swallow your tongue.

We went to have a nice dinner in the Corn restaurant , but unfortunately the whall dinner was a shamble . Firstly I ordered a soft drink which was absolutely warm , I complained straight away, after they braught a small ice bucket . We ordered 2 fish soups 1 trout with almond and 1 Hungarian chicken soup , the fish soups and the trout was served with out any bone plate . During the dinner nobody checked back if everything was ok ? The chicken soup was a 400 ml. “Large” soup , we only found 4 pieces of chicken incide prox 1 ( one gramm all) . After main course I hade to find a waiter to clear the table . Than we ordered dessert . The dessert was one somloi nockel , 2 chestnut purée and one ice cream . By the middle of our dessert , one of the waitress turned up to clear everything included the last glass is well . That was the time when I complainedand said that she should never remove the last glasses from the table . Than she replied that is normal , it’s maybe normal for her but not where I was in the past in the restaurant business the last glasses all ways remaining ! It’s weryunprofeccional to remove it.I ordered the bill and 1 last espresso . The female blonde headwaiter who braught me the bill was very arrogant she would not taking account any of my complain regards of the unprofessional service and lack of chicken in the soup , nevertheless the bone plate and the warm soft drink , pluss that nobody checked back the food . When I tried to tell her she was interrupted me and wouldn’t listen she replied that it’s not a big dill .Because she wouldn’t listen to me and was so arrogant , I questioned her how dare she is talking to me like that arrogantly , and I also said that I would never recommend this place to anybody .Her answer was to snatch my bill and grab it and saying in that case you don’t need to pay . First of all I didn’t go there for charity , more over as a caterer it was a shame to see all this mistakes on mistakes with out proper control . I really hade a bad experience there and I wouldn’t recommend it to anybody .They need a lots of training , I saw a bonch of waiters in the group talking to each other instead of doing there job . What’s gong on in the (Kukprica Csárda) ???? Please please please learn some manners and service , it’s essential before they approaching any table in the restaurant .

Reviewed By pengemex

I had heard of this place a lot before so I was glad to spot it as we drove by. The interior is fine but a little bit “plain”. Service was polite and friendly, but the friendliness was a little too much for me, for example I did not like the waiter placing his hand on my shoulder.Pea soup was OK, main dishes were good, the cottage cheese ball dessert was nothing like we expected, it was more of foam balls.

This busy restaurant offers a great collection of Hungarian food in good quality. Staff is helpful, prices are reasonable. Try the cheese soup, the aubergine cream... or anything you like :O) On weekends book in advance, the restaurant is always full, at least in Summer.
