Reviews in Brighton and Sussex

Super evening, excellent food, friendly and helpful service!

Absolutely fantastic in every way. Amazing food, great atmosphere & service.

First time visit to Into the Blue and I was very impressed with the service, the food and the general friendly atmosphere. I would certainly be happy to return and to recommend others to visit.

Excellent food and service. Fantastic restaurant. A must go.

We come back here time and again. We always have trouble choosing from the menu as there are so many things we would like. Service is great, friendly without being intrusive.

We had the Captain’s Table which was great - we had booked for 4 of us but a couple of friends turned up unexpectedly and there was no problem with the staff laying the table to include them. The food was, as always, delicious - the fish is so fresh , the scallops wrapped in parma ham were scrumptious as were the mussels. The staff are always friendly and we will certainly return as soon as we can

Very disappointed after eating here as a treat for over a decade and loving the way the restaurant built its legacy with amazing dishes and sauces to come back as a small treat to find that the style has completely changed I was flabbergasted to say the least but thought ok let’s give it a go the food was ok but very small nowhere near its normal standard I actually felt like the place had fallen out of love with food , this used to be the best restaurant in Sussex hands down but you have stopped everything that made you that we used to have to book 3 weeks in advance there was 3 walk ins for tables when we where there I think that says it all, please go back to your old style this one is not you

1st time here and couldn’t fault anything, food lovely, service great and although very busy the atmosphere was good ! We will return for an evening meal, can’t wait !

Fantastic restaurant, warm friendly caring staff team. Great meal, fish cooked to perfection. Had a great night out

We love this restaurant and it’s been a favourite of ours for many years but with the change in menu and less focus on seafood, the meal was disappointing. There are hundreds of restaurants that offer similar foods and unfortunately there’s nothing that special now that would make us want to keep coming back. And it was expensive. The seafood was the thing that was unique, exceptional and made us return time and again. The quality of the food is always good but it’s lost what made is great.

Lovely staff, relaxed atmosphere, fab food.

We had a lovely meal, food was really well presented and tasty. Speed of service was just right too. Menu initially a little confusing as wasn't sure if it was Tapas style and how big the portions would be but we did enjoy our food and they was we ordered worked. My Eton Mess was more of a Sundae but ok. Mussels, squid and fish & chips were our favourite. It was a real shame to discover the 10% service charge had automatically been applied after I'd paid the bill. I didn't see this mentioned on the menu and it was quite small at the bottom of the bill so i just didn't notice. My error and I wasn't going to ask for a refund but paying £14 for good but unremarkable service when you're only 3 adults and 2 children seemed a bit steep. Would have been happy to leave a small tip but could be made clearer it is added, appreciate also my own error for not spotting it soon enough.

Go here quite often Always very good never fails on anything

Thus is our "go to" restaurant. We went last Thursday to celebrate what would have been our daughter's 10th wedding anniversary. Her husband died before Christmas. The food was amazing, we went for two shared menus and then ordered a couple of other dishes. The children ordered fish and chips and mussels. The portions were just perfect. I ordered the fillet steak, David cooked it just as I like it, very, very blue, just fabulous. Jacqui, Esther and Milly were magically available when we needed then but certainly did nid not hover. Although it was a sad occasion the atmosphere, food and service were so good it made it something to remember. Many, many thanks

A delightful little restaurant which caters for everyone including smaller portions and fresh food

had the sharing plate for 2 and what a delight great fish cookery fused with fruit will definitely be going back again.

We found the menu somewhat confusing. It would have helped if it had it was Tapas style. Whilst the food was good we preferred the original style menu and food.
