Bock Bisztró Balaton - Bock Bisztró Balaton

Inattentive waiters with bad manners, yet, compulsory 10 percent service fee. The food is below average, but expensive. Dead bugs were falling onto our table from the ceiling. Only the view is quite nice. Still avoid at all costs!

First I was afraid because of the different reviews seen here but the place ruined all my fears and concerns. First, view is beautiful, parking area is comfortable. The place is separated to different rooms and there is a really nice lounge as well. Waiters were really helpful. We ordered two starters, the goose liver we had was really tasty and huge (the "sauce" for it was also something I have never had but still can feel the taste in my mouth), we splitted it into 4 in order to keep everyone alive and able to eat further dishes. We ate 2 soups, both well done, the "korhely" fish soup/goulasch was something we have never tasted before and were curious about it, but it turned out to be a good choice: it was brilliant, the portion was big, such are the main dishes: both the core of the dish (meat or fish) and the dressing, siders were tasing fine, cooked well, served nicely. We had problems with ordering the wine due to the fact there are many of local providers's wine that you can decide hardly which of them to pick... The desserts were simple but really great and one plate enough for two. We also had a cheese-plate with offered wine, we could not find any problem with that, however we really wanted to find something wrong.. :) we could not. We will go back as many times as we can.

Very mixed feeling sadly. Everything was perfect until it came to the payment. With a bill of 200+ EUR (and I also bought for 500 EUR of wines) I was made aware that the 15% (or 12% I dont remember) service charge did not include tips - so I wanted to give 3'000 HUF extra (10 EUR) but only had a 5'000 note so I asked for the 2'000 HUF back but the waiter took the 5'000 note and said that he didn't have change and "so, its OK if I take 5'000?". I was irritated but since I was inviting the family of my girlfriend I did not want to make a scene there and just left. I would perhaps return because food was good but no tip next time.

Either the place has a new chef/owner or had been repositioned from premium to low mediocre. Place is still 5/5, food is 5/2, service 5/2. Shame as we maintained some good memories, but the recent experience is different.

Unpredictable. Sometimes good sometimes bad. Portions change according to how busy they are. If you order take away they leave essentials out. And after you call them they promise follow up which never happens.

Nice view, i liked the service he even spoke a bit german. The Food was pretty good and also had some interesting design ideas for the food. The takeaway a day later wasn't that amazing like when we ate there, but still tasty.

Stunning views and great food. Big portions. The wine list is extensive as one would expect.

Would give 3.5 if possible. view is nice, parking available for free, and wine selection seems of great quality (we tried 4 types, all were delicious). However, the service was bad, our waiter was a young novice who was enthusiastic but didn't know his job, other waiters were rude. None made an effort to speak English. Food was ok, duck was overcooked, chicken was undercooked. Aims to be a high class restaurant, but really isn't. Very expensive though...
