Reviews in Brighton and Sussex

This is one of the best family restaurants in the south east. The quality of the food is excellent with nice calm service and there is a great atmosphere too. The wine list is complete with the emphasis on Portugal which complements the food perfectly. 5 stars!

Visited this restaurant on the off-chance last evening when visiting the town for its carnival. It was an excellent night! The modern English menu was superb (you might wonder why I chose the plain ol' burger but I saw another customer ooze adoration for theirs that i just had to try it)! It was truly wondrous. Later in the evening DJ Kev Hill really turned up the volume but know what? The music he played - old Soul, Jazz Funk and Disco -perfectly suited the suave surroundings and I for one will be back!

absolutely waste of money

An excellent restaurant. Staff are amazing customer service top dollar. Very good food. Adam G assistant manager a very positive asset.

We had a wonderful meal here during our walk of the south downs. I had the recommended fish in beer batter which was delicious it was also lovely to sit in the garden and have our meal looking out at the Downs.

We waited over 1 hour for food when the restaurant was not very busy, and the food was terrible. Avoid.

Very Good value, good food. 4.50 eat as much as you like - you seriously cannot go wrong. Slightly better quality than Cosmos, way better price - highly recommended.

Moonrakers has recently re-opened in Alfriston (nr.Polegate) and 'wow!' what a different place it is! Not only was my meal the best culinary experience I have had in a long time (cooked by a protege chef from one of Gordon Ramsay's restaurants) but they have clearly spent a lot of time creating the 'right' image / atmosphere ... Big buckets of flowers everywhere and fantastic artwork (including Mockfords). I felt thoroughly spoilt and would say that my experience at Moonrakers beats Mirabelles hands down (which is really saying something). Get yourself there quick before there is a three month waiting list!

Must be one of the most overpriced and disappointing Indian meals I've had in a long time. The restaurant is very smart and upmarket. The food, however, was below average. Many of the curries have similar red coloring so that they taste pretty much the same, even if some have pretty exotic names. The nan was about the size of a quarter plate (i.e. half the size of nans in most restaurants). Example of overpriced: 10.45 for a king prawn jalfrezi, which contained about 5 king prawn and a watery red sauce. Shame, the food does not match the restaurant's appearance.

i loved this place. it was amazing! the atmosphere was great! the service was great, the food was great, and the family were great! they made us feel so at home and comfortable. i recommend Little India in Henfield [behind budgens]. the takeways are exceptional aswell.

Really lovely food and reasonably priced. The staff were fantastic! Thanks!

Really enjoy coming here - for the food, the staff, the atmosphere. Very good value and a warm reception, easily the best Italian in town. And a wide-ranging menu. Try the thin, perfect pizzas! The best since we ate out in Rome. IT was awarded - deservedly - the top spot among local restaurants by the Observer newspaper group. Even Saturday morning coffee there feels special - and it's a good place for special occasions too. They really make you feel welcome, and are great with children, helpful and courteous to the elderly. A real family restaurant. What is there left to say? GO THERE!!!! EAT THERE!!!!

We celebrated my husband's 64th at the Golden Palace Restaurant with the family. Had an enjoyable evening and the staff presented us with a birthday cake. It was truly a memorable evening. Highly recommend special occasion and the two private function rooms are great. Very good value with their eat as much as you like menu, freshly cooked as per your order.

we went there for a birthday party for 30 people and we was in a private room with our own bar, it was amazing, we all loved it, had the eat as much as you like menu, the food was very good, the staff were very friendly and nice to chat with and we had a great night at the golden palace, would recommend it to everyone..

great really good food right on beach

Quirky seventies-feel pub, somewhat down at heel but that's part of its charm. Took me back to my youth... Atmospheric and with good music, played not too loud. Friendly bar staff. I'll go again. Definitely one on its own. So much better than the Buccaneer across the road

The food and service in the Asian Rose is excellent. The family fun time in the early evening is great as the kids can try curry tasters to see which ones they like. The kids menu is very reasonable and the owner makes my kids feel like very important guests when we visit the restaurant.

Lovely clean, friendly country restaurant. Food is fresh and imaginative. Staff helpful and a great selection of wines on offer. Good value for money, worth the trip out.
