Pura Vida Port

Top choice in Keszthely


On a breezy terrace by the marina, this new Mediterranean restaurant serves up mains such as osso bucco and confit leg of lamb but keeps holidaymakers happy with less complicated fare such as pizzas (1700Ft to 3200Ft) and burgers (2990Ft to 3490Ft). The dishes are well executed, and the staff is amiable and prompt.
