French restaurant in Brighton

“When we walked in, we first noticed the BEAUTIFUL decor and really calming music! The staff were so friendly and made us feel really welcome and wanted! The food was lovely - we both tried the poached eggs w salmon on toast and the scrambled eggs and pepperoni on toast (which we've never tried before but the pepperoni definitely works!!)- the food was lovely and we were full half way through! We chatted with the staff about their plans for the Panda Lounge moving forward and we're really excited to see the business flourish! We will be back! Thank you for excellent service!”

“Genuinely maybe the best 3 course meal I've ever had, booked the function room for a surprise 30th and was genuinely unbelievable. We had Riccardo (might be slightly wrong) but couldn't have asked for any more. It is slightly on the more expensive side but one million % worth it if you want the full experience. Food and service both 10/10”

“Great time was had. Lovely wine and incredible food. We were fortunate to use the First table app to get a discount on food. The steaks were cooked to perfection and perfect for 2 hungry people. Would recommend all day long”

“We had travelled from Hertfordshire for a day out in Brighton The atmosphere at the Ivy is excellent a beautiful blend of Art Deco luxury and contemporary style, with high ceilings, vibrant artwork, and that signature lively buzz that makes every occasion feel special. The service is truly where The Ivy excels. Our waiter was impeccable: attentive without being intrusive, knowledgeable about the menu. Everything was handled with smooth, effortless professionalism, from cocktail recommendations to clearing courses perfectly in sync. The food was excellent we had starters of Crispy Squid and Duck salad followed by mains of Guinea fowl cassoulet and the Queen Scallops and Prawn linguine. The Ivy Brighton delivered a sophisticated and completely flawless experience.”

“I had a birthday dinner here and everything was amazing!! Food was authentic and the hospitality was perfect”

“Lovely meal at the weekend. Impromptu visit, called ahead about 30 minutes before and they managed to find us a table for 2. Great food, starters, mains and dessert. Filet steak was very tasty. Nice cheerful staff. Nice little place to go.”

“Came to Brighton for a day trip. Was recommended this restaurant by a family member who had been before. Nice cosy old-school vibes. It was a sunny, warm summers day, so we sat outside. There was a range of dishes, but we went for the £27 for 2 course summer set menu, as it seemed a good value for money. I ordered raw rock oysters as starter. Got 3 fresh oysters which were fresh and juicy. Came nice and cold, with the mignonette and ponzu dressing. Delicious! Another person on the table ordered salt and pepper calamari and even though portion was small, with 3 large pieces of calamari, the taste was amazing and it was so fresh. The fish and chips were crispy and fish was flaky. Though again, could do with a few more chips. Tartare sauce was great! The mussels marinieres was exceptional. The sauce was extra creamy and goes well with chips. For the price of the set menu, its great value for money! Would highly recommend! There was bread that came to the table with delicious mackerel pate. But you will need to pay for a cover charge for this. Drinks menu was extensive. Staff were very friendly. Highly recommend. Women’s toilet was up some narrow stairs at the top of the building.”

“I had a wonderful experience at Social Board Brighton. The sandwiches were absolutely delicious, and the fast, friendly service made everything even better. We were lucky to be served by the owner himself, which added a special touch to our visit. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming—you truly feel at home! Congratulations to the chefs for the excellent food and the aromatic, flavorful coffee. Highly recommended!”

“Pitch made us feel so special when we came to eat. Due to dietary issues, they created a menu just for us and the meal was excellent. Catered completely for low fodMap, dairy and gluten free and the staff were attentive, relaxed and friendly. We had a fantastic night and have no issues today. Thank you so much for a lovely evening!”

“Best value in Worthing. Had an iiiincredible meal here! The food was outstanding, the staff were genuinely friendly and helpful. I expected a hefty bill given the quality, but was very pleasantly surprised! Absolute 11/10.”

“Perfect airport cafe/restaurant with REAL art deco look and feel and panoramic views of the airfield, plus outside terrace to take the sun. We were there for cafe visit and were served by friendly, helpful staff. Good coffees. Tea in teapot and Danish Pastries to die for - ming that waistline!”

“I booked the private dining room for a surprise birthday and it was amazing service, lovely food & great atmosphere! Highly recommend.”

“i have been coming to the French Horn for nearly 10 years now and feel it is the most welcoming place I know. I love the food, and am now learning French on Wednesdays. It is great for the games nights too.”

“The taster menu was absolutely gorgeous, and the wine pairing perfect. All meat was beautifully cooked, especially the pork belly. Post House Brighton is the perfect spot for a cosy date night or somewhere impressive to bring someone visiting.”

“Lovely cafe with the most peaceful vibe. Best place to take a breather from the busy streets of Brighton. Coffee was really good and the service was amazing!”

“Really good food, service and vibe. Second time here and this francesinha is definitely up there.”

“My partner and I enjoyed lunch here today. We ate on the terrace so our dog could keep us company. The food was excellent, tasty with well judged portions. A big thank you to Cameron who did a great job looking after us, and made us feel welcome.”

“Can't find anything to complain about this independent Italian restaurant. Food was superb and the range was excellent. You can tell when everything is freshly prepared and piping hot. Staff were attentive and friendly. Prices in our opinion were very reasonable especially when you consider the quality of the food. Well worth a visit if ever in Hove.”

“Fantastic food fantastic service. Clean. Welcoming and delicious. Staff go above and beyond.”

“Fantastic venue for food, drinks and a boogie! Highly recommend, been going for years and will continue to do so. Tasty food, amazing cocktails and the best service, 10/10.”

“Antonia was super attentive and amiable. The ambiance at “Browns” was so calming and welcoming; so much so that dining alone didn’t feel awkward. Great breakfast…I highly recommend the steak and eggs!…YUMMY! I will make sure to dine here every time I visit Brighton A++++”

“This place is amazing. Loved the vibe, music, and most importantly the food. We were looking for the perfect place that served breakfast; cooked for me and vegan for my wife. After looking at several places, we found Kooks. We were served by the very friendly Glyn. What arrived was knock-out (see photos). My poached eggs were perfect. Real attention to detail with the cooking. And my wife’s yoghurt and granola was exactly what she craved, but there was also a vegan cooked breakfast option. Cannot recommend this place highly enough and we’ll be going back the next time we’re in Brighton. Love love love ❤️”

“Great food, very fast from ordering the food to having it ready. Sat outside as it was a lovely day. Will come here again.”

“We just had our work Christmas do at Indigo. The food was excellent, particularly the traditional Xmas dinner. Succulent turkey and crispy roast potatoes. The service throughout the night ran line clockwork and it was a great atmosphere.”

“Very attentive staff and food was delicious! Great wine recommendation and dessert to pair nicely. And a surprise birthday petite. ❤️”

“Best pizza's in town a must try very authentic Italian pizza had a delivery from uber is amazing real dough not this pancake rubbish from the others around this place is serving the real deal”

“Atmosphere is amazing, feels like France. Service and servant is top class. Enjoy every bite of the dish. Love it.”

“Great find in Brighton. The food was cooked perfectly and the staff were very friendly. Highly recommend the chicken shish, calamari, salad and prawns. Best meal we had all week!”

“Celebrated my birthday here in Regency was such an amazing experience. Especially Natasha and her team looked after us very well and made my birthday very special. Thank you guys. I would definitely recommend this place… ❤️❤️❤️”

“Really lovely meal - special celebration for us so we had the works. The food is fabulous quality, the service is exceptional, the drinks menu choices are vast and brilliant; including huge gin selection, wine selection and cocktails, also alcohol free choices of mocktails and more. You can taste the freshness of all the food, it really makes a difference. Our server Freddie was the perfect balance of attentive. When they heard we were celebrating our silver wedding anniversary they made a little fuss (see photo) which was so lovely and welcome. We were treated so well, literally faultless ❤️”
