Ape Regina – Italian restaurant in downtown Budapest, at two locations

Ape Regina's two Italian restaurants are just a few minutes apart in the heart of Budapest. Both places share the same kitchen philosophy: a real wood-fired oven, fresh pasta kneaded daily, an open kitchen where you can watch your food being prepared – and the kind of hospitality you would expect in Italy.


The difference lies in the atmosphere and the dining concept. On Podmaniczky Street, you can enjoy unlimited food and drinks for a fixed price. At Di Piazza next to the Parliament, you can choose from a classic à la carte menu, with terrace seating available from spring to autumn.

Ape Regina has been bringing the authentic flavors and atmosphere of Italy to the heart of Budapest since 2016. We are more than just a restaurant: we were created to share the warmth, traditions, and joy of Italian hospitality with every guest.


We are inspired by the Italian dolce vita. We believe that great dining is not only about excellent ingredients but also about bringing people together. Whether you choose our unlimited dining experience or our carefully curated A'la carte menu, every visit is a short getaway to Italy.
