Restaurants in Brighton and Hove

“Fantastic service! Highly recommend this restaurant– the owner was super accommodating and lovely to chat to. A must visit in Brighton!”

“My friends and I booked through First Table, and it was an absolutely delightful experience. The restaurant is on Boundary Road, quite a way from central Brighton, but the interior is worth the trip — beautifully decorated and full of character. We were warmly greeted by the friendly staff, who offered some great suggestions. We tried their Turkish white wine, which was spot on, then moved on to starters and mains. The highlight for me was the lamb casserole — absolutely heavenly! What really sets this place apart from other Turkish restaurants I’ve been to is the pricing. Even without the 50% First Table discount, the menu is very reasonably priced. The only downside for me is the location, as it’s quite far from where I live (Preston Park). Still, I’d happily make the journey again for their food. Dined for: 3 Meal: Starter + mains + drinks Total bill: £109”

“Beautiful decor, wonderful food and friendly staff and owner. I’ve never felt so welcomed in a restaurant before. This has been an incredible dining experience. Meat was so juicy and food were freshly made. Will bring my family and friends back here.”

“Korpan is such a cozy, homely spot with food that truly tastes like it’s cooked with love. The service was amazing, and the kind man who served me even gave me a free dessert, which made the meal feel extra comforting. The portions are generous, the quality is great, and the prices are incredibly fair. Such a warm, heartfelt place and I’ll definitely be back!”

“I ate steak in this restaurant, and it was really delicious, well served. They are very nice and polite people. I strongly recommend you to eat here.”

“Quite literally one of the best dining experiences I have ever had. Certainly not one of the cheapest, but no questioning the value for money. The service from the staff is amazing, largely due to it being a family business. Visited for my birthday and took a sharing menu with wine tasting and every course was utterly sublime, each beating the last. The wine pairings were also beautiful and well described and explained by the staff. I cannot recommend enough coming to try this restaurant. I will 100% be back in the future!!”

“Doesn't look like much from outside but this was one of the best pizzas I've had in a long time. Thin with crispy bottom but not dry. Absolutely delicious, will come again!”

“A wonderful experience, I visited with a group of 5 (myself included) and the worker allowed us to push together the tables and was super helpful and accommodating! We ordered three pizzas and all three were delicious. Everything was homemade which was extremely impressive, and the atmosphere was very calm, and pleasant. 10/10 customer service, and 10/10 food!! I recommend visiting or ordering here if you’re looking for authentic Italian cuisine, and a relaxing atmosphere with wonderful customer service!”

“- This was the best food I had on our Trip through England so far!!! - This restaurant is child friendly and his recommendations are on point! - his sauces are „just“ the tip on the ice berg. - as a dessert on a hot day recommend his selfmade ice cream.”

“This time we tried the choripán with spicy chimichurri – it was amazing! We also grabbed two alfajores de maicena to go. This place is a must-stop if you're in Brighton.”

“I have visited Arcobaleno on many occasions and always a fabulous time. Lovely friendly atmosphere and LGBTQ+ friendly based on Wizard of Oz theme. Cocktails are fun and the Maltase menus is fabulous and great if a cabaret show is on. Had Sunday roast yesterday with a group of friends and all arrived at the same time and it really is the best roast I have tasted in Brighton. Vegans and vegetarians also catered well for. The staff are great and welcoming. This is a unique place in Brighton, very chilled away from the louder places in town, which I would highly recommend. Don't miss out and tell your friends.”

“Just got a great cut from my barber and had to drop a quick shoutout to Dan the man. Super chill vibe, always listens to what I want, and somehow makes my hair look better than I thought it could. Never rushed, always clean, and I leave feeling fresh every time. Highly recommend if you're looking for someone who knows what they're doing and actually cares. 5/5! Im sure the Boys and Lady at the shop will sort you out of Dans unavailable.”

“This was the first time ordering for here, my mother said its a lovely meal to have, and must admit I am very pleasantly surprised, the food arrived hot, tasted fresh and full of flavour, delivery person very polite and cheerful, I dont normally eat a full meal but managed to eat most of it as it was delicious. Definitely value for money, have recommended them to my friends and family already.”

“We had a brilliant evening here. A delicious curry, followed by waffles and icecream (be sure to let Jane know your dietary needs ahead of time). And then a wonderful performance by the incredibly talented Nick Pynn. It’s a special place, and we felt very lucky to receive Jane’s warm hospitality. Dinner, entertainment, a round of drinks and a bottle of wine came to £45 per person.”

“Visited Brighton while with a friend and we really weren't sure what to eat and stumbled across Betsy's and all I can say is it completed exceeded our expectations. We both settled on burgers and chips (which you do have to order seperately) but everything was cooked to perfection and both the fries and chunky chips were the best, crispiest chips we'd ever tasted! The menu is super with lots of choices to suit everyone so it's a great place to go if your group can't quite decide on one cuisine. The burgers were amazing and great value for price (I think the tab came to just over £30). The portion sizes were much bigger than I had bargained for but Tony (one of the owners) gave us a takeaway box for everything we were unable to finish. The decor is beautiful and it is a very cozy place with great ambience. Betsy's is going to do amazing for itself and I will be back next time I'm in brighton”

“I love asiana so much it’s delicious and such a treat the food is so good and such an amazing price!! so delicious i recommend to everyone”

“This was our favorite brunch spot in Brighton and the best brunch we’ve had in the UK!! Unfortunately it was our last day in town so we didn’t have time to come back again, but definitely would have. The pancakes were melt in you mouth perfect and the jam was so good we tried asking if they sold it by the jar. Pistachio latte was great. The star of the show was the eggs on toast, which we definitely recommend!”

“You wonder if its going to be as good as you expect. The experience was a birthday gift from my niece . My wife and I went with moderate expectations but we were really happy with the whole thing. I loved the range of food and the care the staff took to make sure everything was perfect. The multiple dishes provided, solved my normal problem of what to choose on the menu and wanting to try a bit of everything. Just go with a few friends and have a great time”

“As always Top Notch Nosh. Delighted to witness more new customers discovering this rare gem. We frequently plan trips to Brighton around Burger Bros opening hours. Pictured: Bennetton with Halloumi and v.hot chilli”

“Tried this place for the first time and it did not disappoint. The food is authentic Afghani, full of flavor, and the portion sizes are generous … you’ll definitely leave full! The menu has so much variety, it was hard to choose just one dish. Service was fast, the staff were really welcoming, and best of all, no service charge! The restaurant is easy to find and 100% halal. Definitely worth a visit if you’re craving something hearty and real.”

“Absolutely phenomenal! We had the spring tasting menu for our first wedding anniversary and every course was incredible. How this place does not have a star yet amazes me but it can't be far away. By far the best restaurant we have been to in Brighton and we will definitely come again! ~ Max and Emma”

“With a large choice of vegetarian food in Brighton it can be hard to find a great place to eat. Some of the larger restaurants are marvellous but if you want quality on the go, or just seated in the pedestrian area then this place is a bit of a gem. Quick service, simple menu and fresh products. Staff who will chat and tell you about the process of making fresh falafel. Please do drop by and try it. We did and really recommend it.”

“Up there as one of the best pizzas I’ve ever eaten, and certainly the best I’ve had in this country. Authentic Neapolitan pizza, so thin you have to eat it with a fork and knife”

“Wonderful, warm, and cozy atmosphere as well as incredibly tasty food. Good vegan/vegetarian options too. Char grilled sweet potato and spicy cucumber was to die for ‼️”

“I met up with my girlfriend on my lunch break and we decided to go to Alushi’s. This place really is a hidden gem in Brighton. The smells coming from the coal grill and kebabs are incredible and immediately draw you in. We both went for the meal deal, which is excellent value: a wrap, chips and a drink for £12. We chose the homemade chilli sauce and garlic sauce, which were both delicious. The wraps were incredibly tasty. The meat was perfectly grilled and generously portioned. I went for the lamb while my girlfriend chose the chicken. The salad inside the wrap was very fresh, with ripe tomatoes and a lovely pickle that really stood out. On top of all this, the service was fantastic. The guy behind the counter was friendly and happy to make recommendations. When we were leaving, we told him how good the food was. He winked, wished us a great day, and clearly knows just how good his food is. Highly recommend this place.”

“We had lunch today, and we never got disappointed. The food was brilliant. We had mixed grill, and it was cooked to perfection as always. I really recommend this restaurant you won't get disappointed.”

“Found this cafe in The Lanes when looking for a nice breakfast before the drive home after staying at the Leonardo hotel. Cracking little place, great coffee and pastries. Excellent, friendly service.”

“Came across Tammy's on a weekend away in Brighton, after a long and arduous journey. The steep hill climb to the chippy helped build up our appetite and gave us a laugh along the way. Staff were friendly, food was freshly cooked. All in all, a worthwhile find.”

“Had a lovely experience at Tookta! The food was absolutely delicious – very authentic Thai flavours and clearly made with care. The service was just as wonderful. The owner and staff were incredibly welcoming, making it feel like a warm, local gem rather than just a restaurant. One of the best Thai meals I’ve had in Brighton – highly recommend and will definitely be back!”

“the staff are so sweet and welcoming. we had really delicious vegetable samosas, we had to come back 2 minutes later to get more!! and they made them fresh for! would highly recommend, we left skipping!!”
