Fogas Bisztró

Part beachside snack bar, part breezy bistro – Fogas in Alsóörs is the lovechild of both. At first glance, it may seem like a standard family-run fish shack, but it is in a different league. Fish crackling is ubiquitous, but here it arrives with a striking black mayonnaise. Curd dumplings also abound, but this one is savoury, with smoked sturgeon. Fisherman’s soup comes in seven variations, and the kitchen works confidently with both freshwater and seafood. The repertoire ranges from carp and trout to salmon and sturgeon. Light and inventive – the kitchen keeps pace with the times. Cauliflower steak, red lentils, beetroot hummus all feature, and local wines are paired with the fish. A passionate team of gastronomy-devotees run this gem.
