June makes a bold statement, that it isn’t about the month, but about a mood - when everything feels a more relaxed, when conversations flow more easily, and when being together feels warm and only good.

Located at the upmarket MOM Park in Buda, this fresh concept creates a place that naturally fits into different moments of life. In the morning you could drop in for a great coffee, during the day for light lunch or a hearty meeting, and in the evening to share a few deliciously fresh dishes with friends - both old or new.

The kitchen draws inspiration from Middle Eastern flavours and Central European cuisine, focusing on vegetable-centred dishes that are not only market fresh but full of character, alongside familiar favourites that people may expect and always enjoy.



June’s not for special occasions, but for everyday life

Sharing is at the heart of June - in the food, in the time spent together, and in the overall experience.  Many of the dishes are designed to be placed in the middle of the table, reflecting the idea that shared dining naturally brings people closer together.

Daytime life is another key pillar of June. Morning coffee, daytime meetings and shared lunches are just as important as evening dinners. The drinks list reflects the same thinking: natural wines, selections from smaller champagne houses, and a particularly strong range of non-alcoholic options.

The atmosphere of the space is lighter, more relaxed and more natural. Mediterranean and subtly tropical influences, plenty of plants, lounge-style seating and market-inspired elements create an environment where it’s easy to arrive — and even easier to stay.

June operates not only as a restaurant, but also as an "open gastronomic platform", Roy Zsidai the owner told XpatLoop.com recently.

He explained that pop-up events, guest chefs and community collaborations will all be part of the concept, helping the venue remain connected to its surroundings.

This new place is not a standalone experiment, but the next step in the evolving thinking of the well-established Zsidai Group. Over the years the first venture, Café Pierrot, has entertained star guests such as Roger Moore, Anthony Hopkins, Antonio Banderas, Jason Statham, and Bernie Ecclestone.

More recent Zsidai restaurants include Jamie Oliver's Diner, 21 and Baltazár, which are also in the Buda Castle District, plus Spíler, Jamie's Italian Budapest and more.

The concept of June goes beyond simply continuing a successful restaurant model. Instead, it explores a new way of operating while also signalling a broader direction for the hospitality industry.

The focus shifts away from the traditional restaurant format towards more flexible dining spaces that are alive from morning until evening. It’s a place where gastronomy balances excitement with familiarity, where the use of space combines community and intimacy, and where stability exists alongside experimentation.

The new June concept also responds to emerging trends in hospitality. More and more people are looking for places that are not just for special occasions, but that fit naturally into everyday life.

At June there is no service charge, reflecting the idea that the experience of sharing food should remain a natural and accessible part of daily life.



The emphasis is not on grand gestures or hype we're told, but on creating a place that people can genuinely use - from morning to night, on weekdays as well as weekends. This approach is also central to the hospitality philosophy of the Zsidai Group.

Therefore June is not just a new restaurant, it represents a fresh way of thinking about how hospitality can be contemporary, more "human and sustainable".

June is designed to welcome rather than exclude

It’s not a programmed venue, but a meeting point. Not an occasional destination, but a natural part of everyday life, says Roy.

Natural wines, small champagne houses plus extensive non-alcoholic options are featured in the selection of drinks, as more and more people are looking for quality non-alcoholic alternatives, Roy emphasised.

To conclude he summing up the food saying it's “Uncle Efraim’s Tel-Aviv kitchen meets Granny's Budapest recipes”.  June’s interior supports the experience of eating together, with many plants, lounge-style seats and market-like elements, creating a Mediterranean and almost tropical atmosphere.
