Alexandria was an amazing server at Vernona Gourmet! She was incredibly welcoming and gave me fantastic food suggestions.The restaurant has a really cozy atmosphere, and everything is made to order so you can taste the freshness. The chicken schnitzel was perfectly crispy, the homemade fries were delicious, and the portion sizes are great. If you are looking for authentic Hungarian food and outstanding service, this place is a must-visit!

A great spot to eat, had the chicken paprikas, a polish beer, and the dobos torta, which was all fantastic. Alexandra was a great host and very helpful with the menu!

I look forward to coming back

Alexandria was our server - she did such a great job, we found out she even drew the amazing mural on the wall of the restaurant. We had a great time trying Hungarian wine and beer, food was amazing, we will be back to try the rest of the menu. We talked to guests who said they are regulars, and we are not surprised, great job and thank you!
