NABOO is in Gyenesdiás, on Kossuth Lajos utca. Its name refers to a planet from Star Wars, and the interior is just as playful: leopard-print wallpaper, pop-art pictures in gold frames, colourful velvet armchairs, big arched windows. More exhibition or club than traditional restaurant. It appears in the 2025 Gault&Millau Balaton selection, and in autumn 2024 it came second in the premium category audience vote of the national Restaurant Week.
Mediterranean, Mexican, Hungarian
The menu goes in several directions: Neapolitan pizza made with Italian ingredients, foie gras terrine, pike-perch, beef sirloin, a Mexican bowl, schnitzel, burger with fries. On the Hungarian side, pörkölt with green pea stew. Chicken Caesar salad for a lighter lunch. The desserts are a show, and the fly agaric mushroom cake is one of the house’s most photographed dishes. There is also a weekly menu and changing specials.
The bar
Coffee, Balaton syrups from CsupaSzörp and Folly Arborétum, craft beers, spirits. The cocktails follow the style of the place, including one named after Darth Vader and a Barbie World.
Good to know
