The story
The story of A Konyhám began in the summer of 2017 in Balatonfenyves, where a small beach bistro set out to do something different. After winning two beach food competitions, the team knew they had something worth expanding. In December 2021, they opened A Konyhám Stúdió 365 in Fonyód – a year-round gourmet restaurant that brings the same playful energy and commitment to quality to a refined setting.
The restaurant’s motto, “Ha fontos, hogy mit eszel” (What you eat matters), runs through every dish. The kitchen focuses on contemporary cuisine, balancing bold flavours with precise technique. The atmosphere is described as a pleasant environment with good mood and fun – like being on the shore, but indoors and dressed up. The space is open for lunch and dinner, with air conditioning ensuring comfort year-round.
The team’s dedication has earned recognition from the Michelin Guide, which lists A Konyhám Stúdió 365 among its recommended restaurants. This nod reflects the consistent quality and creativity that define the dining experience. The menu changes with the seasons, highlighting local ingredients and the kitchen’s playful approach to contemporary cooking.
Whether you visit on a quiet winter evening or a lively summer afternoon, the restaurant delivers a warm, unpretentious welcome. The team’s passion for what they do is evident in every detail, from the presentation of each plate to the easy, attentive service. A Konyhám Stúdió 365 proves that fine dining can be both serious and joyful – a place where the food matters, and so does the feeling of being well taken care of.

History
A Konyhám became a cult favourite as a beachside food stand in Balatonfenyves, and the story continued on the southern shore. The name of the new location, A Konyhám Stúdió 365, already hints at year-round service. This time, they chose another unusual spot: the top floor of a socialist-era commercial building in Fonyód, right by the harbour and the train station. Despite the unassuming location, the interior is surprisingly stylish. There is a certain rebellious charm in the choice of venue. Though chef Gabi Szikra takes center stage, the real engine behind the project is a dynamic duo. His partner in both life and business, Gábor Renczés, is the ideas man and executor in the background. Their shared passion for gastronomy – and for each other – fuels the success of A Konyhám. You will find the chef buzzing between the open kitchen and the dining area. This is joyful cooking, an uninhibited, expressive cuisine that wears its heart on its plate. Our porcini risotto came al dente, bravely defying Hungarian taste preferences, and while it was not the most photogenic dish, it was plated with care. As for dessert, their riff on the classic Dobos torte was a wild one: they served the cream on a single sponge layer, skipping the usual thick caramel top in favour of shards of salted caramel. It was a boundary-pushing, exciting creation. A Konyhám Studio 365 is a pleasant place. No pretension, no waiting around, just warm, dynamic service and imaginative, but never overcomplicated, dishes made from honest ingredients. Every detail of the experience reflects their simple credo: “we love what we do”!
