Restaurants in Brighton

“I am so happy that Tunbridge Wells has a great Persian restaurant! Absolutely loved the food. Extra points for having delicious vegetarian options! And the desserts are to die for. Highly recommend.”

“Tasty food and great service. I loved my pistachio dessert!! I was instantly in Italy and the terrace is lovely on sunny days! Thanks Ruby”

“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”

“From the moment we walked in, the staff were warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. The service was impeccable throughout our visit—friendly without being overbearing, and always on hand just when you needed them. It’s clear the team takes pride in creating a relaxed yet polished dining experience. The food lived up to every expectation. Fresh, vibrant ingredients shine in every dish, from the beautifully presented starters to the generous mains. To top it all off, dessert was a true indulgence, a perfect end to the meal.”

“Genuinely the perfect date spot. Food was almost so good we cried. Lovely service and atmosphere.”

“This is the best japanese restaurant i have eaten at! Incredible food, very friendly staff, I highly recommend. I’m hoping to come back here soon!”

“We popped in for lunch and told the staff that it was our 22nd anniversary. We both had the set £10 menu. I had mushroom gyōza and Kakugiri ramen and my partner had pork gyōza and Tokyo ramen and we each had a half of Kirin beer. The food was delicious and such great value and the beer was lovely and refreshing. When we came to pay, our waitress said the beer was comped to celebrate our anniversary. What a lovely gesture. Great team, great food.”

“Nicola and her team catered for my wedding this weekend and the food was delicious and ABUNDANT! My partner and I went for a tasting a few months ago where we selected the dishes we wanted for the big day, which was great fun and super useful. All of our guests have been raving about the food, as often wedding food is too formal and everyone's left a bit hungry. The team also did 'late night food' (we chose pulled pork and halloumi burgers) which could not have gone down better. The service was seamless and Nicola is wonderful to work with. Highly recommend for any event!”

“A cozy cafe that I happened to stumble upon. The rhubarb crumble was amazing. The portions for the main dishes are also big which is awesome. Really nice atmosphere, as the locals eat here as well, and they were very kind”

“Shared a range of starters with my friend, great portion sizes and particular standout was the Tzatziki. Main could’ve done with more seasoning but I would go back to try other mains. Halloumi is out of this world - definitely recommend. Overall a lovely experience and would recommend.”

“Good Thai place to try out when you are around Brighton. We have been here a few times and we have always enjoyed our meal here.”

“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!”

“What a hidden gem that you now need to visit! The most beautiful tapas restaurant in Hove, designed so stylishly and serving pretty amazing tapas with a twist on your more traditional dishes! A huge selection of wines, local Spanish beers and great sangria, and really friendly waiting staff, too. Spent a really enjoyable couple of hours here and cannot wait to return again soon :)”

“Stopped by this place while venturing around ‘The Lanes’ with my partner and a friend and what an amazing find (even worth a visit for the coffee alone!) The staff were extremely welcoming and attentive and really made our morning. We only stopped for coffee but decided to stay for breakfast after looking at the menus, our friend opted for the Islas Breakfast which looked amazing (lovely bit of sausage), my partner went for the No Meat Breakfast; both would have given me food envy had my Hash not been so tasty! The food arrived quickly and nothing was too much to ask of the staff. Definitely a little gem and we will definitely be returning!”

“Really good! We had a lovely meal here. We were a party of five, all vegetarian. There was a big selection of vegetarian food, lots of tofu dishes, loads of vegetable dishes and rice and noodley things. They have nice soups too. The food comes out lightening fast and is super fresh and hot. You can order as much and as often as you like. Just make sure you eat it all. Recommended.”

“We had a great experience in Into the Blue. You can tell all the ingredients are fresh, nothing frozen and they offer a wide array of seafood/fish for every pallet. The only thing was it was so popular that they ran out of food half way through the day! So we’d recommend getting in early on weekends. Would absolutely return.”

“We visited on a Tuesday night and our meal, the service and value here were excellent. The poppadoms and pickles were spot on! We then shared Chicken Shashlik, a sizzling plate with lots of fresh onion, pepper and tomato, and lamb biryani which was full of flavour and closer to what we've eaten in India than most UK restaurants. That was plenty of food for us both, and we left very well satisfied!”

“This is one of Hove‘s best kept secrets, Where locals and regulars return, the fish is exceptionally good quality, Always fresh and they have the option of gluten-free batter too you can dine in or to have a takeaway you can phone up and order it and collect your own order or get a taxi to collect your order. It’s a good old-fashioned fish and chip shop.”

“It’s a family restaurant so it’s meant they work hard for the name and the food . I ordered chicken tikka biryani it’s was fabulous and delicious i ordered it again the next day . The restaurant was super clean and the staff was always smiling and helpful with your order . The portion is more than enough and ingredients was high grade and amazing. The wifi was very fast . I really recommend this restaurant.”

“Called in on a whim on a rainy Monday night. Ordered my usual affair: onion bhajis, chicken tikka jalfrezi, pilau rice, peshwari nann. Really great flavours in everything and a nice kick of spice as expected. Generous portions, bring your own beer and good value for money. Service was pleasant when needed but left me to get on with it! A proper curry for those times when the posh one's at company events don't quite hit the spot. I'll definitely be returning when back in Brighton.”

“I'm so used to eating chapatis that are thick as a carpet and it was a delight to find a proper thin whole-wheat roti here.(I bought a few extras to take home and freeze). Paneer pahadiya and chicken pahadiya were flawless and the side dishes were all also excellent. No batch cooking here, all freshly prepared and with interesting careful flavours. The owner is a sweetheart and very gently hospitable. This is one of those hidden gems- don't miss it if you appreciate authentic south Asian food. Extremely reasonably priced too!”

“One of my favorite thai place to go locally! Thai is my go to cuisine so when i tell you i had loads of thai food, and this is really good, trust me on this! their honey roast duck is amazing, the sea food tastes so fresh!!”

“An amazing meal after a long day of hiking! We were seated right away upstairs, our server was kind and welcoming, and the food arrived promptly. We shared the siu mai, chicken satay, lemongrass shrimp, and tom kha soup with mushrooms added. Each dish was more delicious than the last. So grateful to have stumbled upon this gem!”

“We came here for a pre-theatre dinner on a Friday night. It was 5.30pm so quiet when we came in, but it quickly filled up so possibly a good idea to book. The service was superb and the food came extremely quickly and was delicious. The vegetables were all fresh and tasty and everything was cooked to perfection. As we still had plenty of time we ordered dessert, which was also delicious. I love Thai food and this was amongst the best I have had. I would thoroughly recommend it.”

“Such a great place with so many good vegan options! Nice owners, great and fast service. The starters came fast and hot! The mains are so tasty! The tofu is super fluffy and soaks in all the sauce and flavours. Beers for 4£ are a steal! We finished with the coconut sticky rice with mango. Can’t recommend this place enough. Would come back any time ♥️”

“Lovely staff, Tanita and Brody have excellent customer service, genuily nice and happy people. The food was amazing (I ordered sour soup with mushrooms and Thai pai with veggies) , they accommodate my picky requests (no spicy, no meat). Nice and quiet atmosphere, perfect for a Sunday afternoon. I will definitely come back. Thank you!”

“Excellent meal. Everyone in our party enjoyed the food. Friendly Staff. Worth a visit. Recommend”

“Visited this restaurant on Saturday to celebrate our wedding anniversary. The service is absolutely first class, so attentive, friendly and nothing is too much trouble. Food was amazing and had a great atmosphere. Will definitely be returning soon. Thank you for making our evening so enjoyable”

“Been coming for years now every time i visit England and i absolutely love this place. Ashley is an amazing host. The food is delicious and the atmosphere is great too. Cant wait to be back on my next trip ❤️”

“Found this restaurant as staying at a nearby Premier Inn. The atmosphere is lovely the staff are great and the food is some of the best Turkish food we've had. Would highly recommend a visit if you are in the area.”
