Balaton Restaurant

A good value for excellent eastern european food. Service was friendly, the atmosphere was fun and lively. Will definitely be going back again.

I was meeting my parents in Cleveland for the weekend (all of us from out of state), and I needed a good, preferably Hungarian, restaurant to take them for their 39th wedding anniversary. I doubt I could have chosen better. The food was excellent (the breaded mushroom appetizer just like my mom's grandmother used to make), the recorded music authentic, the decor appropriately themed and tasteful, and the service always attentive if somewhat slow (any waiter would refill our coffee and water without waiting to be asked, even though we were not seated in their area). The portions were extemely generous, so don't be afraid to order the ""small"" plate. Finally, the prices were very reasonable for the quality and quantity. I can't recommend this restaurant highly enough!
