Local cuisine in Brighton

“We had a cute lunch date here. I love sashimi so much and it's one of only two places that do it locally, I hope they add more fish to the menu ☺️ We ordered to collect tonight with friends, everything is so delish! Great service.”

“I came for the bottomless brunch. Harri the bartender was great and made sure we always had cocktails ready to drink, there was a lovely lady called Lisa serving us. Honestly service here has always been great. I prefer the general menu to the bottomless brunch menu but that doesn’t take away from the experience at all!”

“Absolutely incredible experience at Manju’s. From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed like family. The food is some of the best vegetarian cuisine I’ve ever had, every dish packed with flavour, beautifully presented, and served with genuine warmth. You can tell everything is made with love and tradition. The setting is cosy and intimate, and the personalised service made it feel extra special. A true gem in Brighton, book ahead and don’t miss it!”

“So glad I found and booked this restaurant for a special birthday celebration meal for my best friend! We absolutely loved it. From the ambience, the attentive and accommodating staff to the scrumptious food! The staff really helped me make my friend feel very special for his birthday and I really appreciated it!! Oh one more thing (again) the food was topnotch full of explosive flavours and at a reasonable price too. We would travel all the way back to Brighton to dine here again! Thank you all at Cibo, you made our evening beautiful. Hina & Mark✨️☺️”

“It is very delicious pizza and friendly service☺️”

“We just had a truly wonderful dining experience at Moonstone and simply had to share it. This restaurant in Brighton is an absolute gem, and I can't recommend it highly enough. Every dish we tried was bursting with amazing flavours and felt so fresh. The staff were really nice and the price was so convenient for the incredible quality and generous portions. I felt the meal was exceptionally good value. We will definitely go back.”

“I have been visiting this place for some time now and it really is a hidden gem.. Not sure why I haven't left a review before now, but here it is. Each of the many visits here have been top class, the calibre of cuisine that hits your plate is consistent every time thats rare with any restaurant. Tony and his team seem to get it right Everytime and that makes it a truly class act We bring our two little girls here and he always finds the time to come and say hello. It's hands down at the top of my list of favourite places to eat.”

“Discovered this jewel by accident. Great food , pricing and service. The cantonese duck stir fry and chicken egg fried rice were both excellent. Will be back soon!”

“Love this local gem. Dropped in this evening after a long day of cooking roasts ourself. New menu item was deep fried olives with a tangy dipping sauce. I could have eaten a whole plate. Pizzas fresh and tasty and burrata the perfect accompaniment Harvey our server was friendly and welcoming just adding to a lovely experience as always. Highly recommend”

“Delicious Steak, Great Service! We had a fantastic dinner at this steakhouse. The steak was cooked perfectly. Juicy, tender, and full of flavour. The sides were also spot on, especially the grilled vegetables and chunky fries. Everything was fresh and well-seasoned. Service was friendly and attentive without being intrusive. The atmosphere was cosy, and the small touches (like the chimichurri sauce and candlelight) made the experience even better. Highly recommend if you're looking for quality steak and a relaxed dining vibe!”

“Really cute and colourful restaurant. The staff was super polite and kind. We had the Thali and it's rare that every element tastes good. This was some of the best Indian food I've had and I would highly recommend this place if you can never choose what to get at an Indian place ;)”

“Lovely staff, even for a Friday evening we barely waited for our food. Fun atmosphere and amazing cocktails. We shared the platter for 2-3 with 4 and had the hot mezze starter. Perfect!”

“First time here, a small, "real" Turkish restaurant. Fresh produce, crispy bread...everything generously portioned and very tasty. I had a halloumi-tzastiki wrap, which was excellent. The service was very nice and friendly. I'd be happy to go”

“I popped in for brunch and honestly, it was amazing! The Bottomless Berry Pancakes were the best I've ever had, and the Bills Brunch was just lovely and hit the spot. Plus, that latte was perfect – seriously, every sip was bliss. The service was spot-on and the place was super clean, making for a top-notch atmosphere. I left feeling really happy and can't wait to return!”

“I always loved to have lunch here, especially the seafood options. This time, I stopped on a busy afternoon in the middle of the holiday rush. They were kind and happily offered me a table. The combo of Barbeque prawns and Caesar salad was a tasty choice for a quick lunch!”

“Excellent pub with friendly ,welcoming staff and atmosphere. Great real ales and fair price. Even on Pride weekend we were serve surprising quickly considering the number of customers. Will definitely visit again. Nice to have a pub in the centre of town that is so inclusive.”

“Wow! It was raining, so we were looking for a cute place to hide and saw this amazing little restaurant. This was the best choice we’ve made so far on our trip to Brighton. The food is amazing!! The people are also really nice! So happy with this experience, thank you.”

“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.”

“Loved the chicken calibrase, flavours were delicious and potatoes cooked to perfection my friend had the vegan rainbow lasagna and said it was delicious too. Our server, Lukas was very polite and efficient.”

“We visited Bella Italia on a Friday evening a couple of weeks ago. Food was great the staff were really friendly, really grateful for them for accommodating us at short notice.”

“Another lovely cafe in Brighton. Very friendly and delicious food.”

“If i could give service 10* I would. I've been 5 times over the years and the manager is just the nicest man you'll ever meet. Really passionate about his job and has this Italian charm about him. The food of course is exceptional with each pizza becoming more difficult to choose because they're all so tasty. Not greasy either which always sits heavy in my stomach. By far, the best branch in the UK.”

“I can confidently say this is the best Korean restaurant in Brighton. Every dish is delicious, and the owner is incredibly kind. If you’ve never tried Korean food or if you already love it, you absolutely have to come here!”

“Cozy seating, wonderful presentation and incredibly delicious! Polite staff and great Service. The red prawn curry was packet full of flavors and the chili squid was tender and crispy. The duck confit was also excellent and paired really well with the pack Choi and tender-stem broccoli. I 100% recommend eating here!!”

“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.”

“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.”

“My partner and I are visiting Brighton and decided to have dinner here. We couldn’t have found a better restaurant! The food was amazing, they catered very well for vegans and the staff were lovely. Highly recommend visiting.”

“Love the uncle who manage the restaurant very good at service. And always my favorite to go hotpot place in Brighton. Love the eat all you can part of the meal promo they have here. Very generous.”

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

“Such friendly staff. Made us so welcome. Will definitely return.”
