Special occasion dining in Brighton

“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!”

“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✨️☺️”

“Really nice cafe and amazing service. I got the peri chicken toasty and it was very flavourful. Such a nice seating area and really good value for money. I highly recommend and I would love to come here again.”

“Our dining experience was outstanding! The food was amazing, and the service was impeccable—definitely a 10/10. Kim took care of us during our visit, and she truly elevated our evening with her attentive and friendly service. She's a real asset to the team. Thank you for a memorable- Night”

“Brilliant pub, great atmosphere, good selection of booze. Love the music and the friendly staff. If I recall correctly my server was Poppy and she was great for drink recommendations ☺️”

“Great selection of beers, nice ambience and friendly staff. Accepts blue light card for 10% off”

“The Dining Room hosted our 'after ceremony' meal in June 2022 and did a fantastic job. The venue is perfect for an intimate meal with close family, bridesmaids and best men - just what we wanted. We dropped some of our themed decorations off the day before which were all laid out for us when we arrived. The food was delicious and so unique for our special day - they accommodated for all different tastes. They offered a wide selection of drinks and you can also bring your own drinks for a corkage fee which we utilised for the toast. The location was very convenient for us due to our ceremony taking place a few minutes drive away. Our guests loved the surprise of the 'signing chef' after the speeches - a great mix of songs! They even went the extra mile and recorded a video of the 'singing chef' for us to add to our wedding video as we had missed filming it due to enjoying ourselves too much! Very reasonable pricing for a special meal. We hope to come back to celebrate our anniversary here time and time again.”

“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.”

“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.”

“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 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++++”

“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.”

“Amazing service from Sharon. Lovely fast and speedy. As you can see from the pic, the kids couldn't eat all their food as they were too full. Worth 5 stars. Would give her more if I could. Go on girl. Spin that wheel :)”

“Fantastic food, super tasty and all very reasonably priced. Our waiter Mo was very friendly and incredibly attentive. The quiet atmosphere is great for a nice chat however the place could be a bit more lively. Would recommend!”

“Absolutely wonderful slice of Sicily in Brighton, all proper homemade and delicious especially the Arancini and Gelato, exactly what you would expect in Italy”

“We were lucky enough to eat as guests in the Over Wallop restaurant at Glyndebourne last week, during a performance of the Magic Flute (sublime singing and music!), and thought the food the best we have ever had there. We had the Sussex asparagus starter, followed by the Cumbrian lamb (cooked to perfection and the depth of flavour in the jus was simply superb), with the coffee mousse to finish. All the dishes were absolutely delicious and we could not find a single fault. Well done to Steve Groves and his brilliant team. As always the service was immaculate and it is a wonder to behold how so many meals are delivered (like clockwork) mid-performance in such a short window. Thank you so much to all concerned for helping to make such a special evening.”

“Yo Sushi has always been a treat for me, as the sushi is better than store-bought and in general I love the vibe of the restaurant and service. I have been several times and have never been disappointed! The food is delicious and the service is very quick and kind, my server Matty was helpful and really made eating here comfortable and enjoyable. Will definitely be back for more!”

“Came here for the first time on Saturday for their bottomless brunch deal for £25, great price for starters. Had a choice of 3 dishes off the menu, we also ordered more alongside as we felt they might be a little small.... Well.. the portions were bigger then expected definitly enough for 1 between 2 poss 3 all cooked amazingly not one bad dish and OMG their summer spritz white sangri is the nicest drink iv had in a long time, try if you can. Staff were great and so atenttative too would highly recommend and can't wait to come back 10/10 from me”

“The food was freshly cooked and served fast. We really enjoyed our glazed burgers and Michael gave us a really good service. I definitely will go back some time.”

“Absolutely gorgeous food! The gyros alone are worth going in, I'm still in a state of mourning having finished mine already, but I consoled myself with the equally delicious desserts - we had chocolate temptation, chocolate baklava and the unbeatable original baklava and though our whole family may now expire from overindulging, if we survive we'll be going gladly back for more. Amazing quality, fantastic friendly service and the price is insanely reasonable for such seriously good food. Would highly recommend!”
