Reviews in Eastbourne

A little Sardinian gem in the heart of Meads! The food and service was superb as we celebrated my wife’s birthday. The atmosphere was warm and cosy and very relaxed. The food was superb, well prepared and served well by the friendly staff. We will be back!

Our second visit to this lovely, authentic Sardinian restaurant. And again, an outstanding meal - delicious food, excellent service and welcoming atmosphere. A true gem.

Delicious food, great service and a magical atmosphere. Highly recommended

Booked for our wedding anniversary meal on 12th December 2024. Customer care was excellent, Food, Wine and Beer was outstanding. Excellent value for money. Can’t wait to book another table. Thank you.

Second visit for an evening meal and once again exceptional food and service. We chose their Christmas menu, and at £45 a head, it was worth every penny . I must mention the Sardinian wine, Nepente Di Oliena, which was a perfect match for the meal in our opinion. A very enjoyable 2 and 1/2 hours and recommended.

Small, cozy restaurant serving tasty and authentic Sardinian cuisine. We had Sardinian starters which were wonderful, followed by their Sunday roasts (we sampled the lamb, chicken and pork). Great service and friendly staff.

cosy and intimate atmosphere, excellent service and the most delicious food. the flavours were rich, deep and aromatic and unusually loads of amazing choices for those who don't eat meat. i didnt know Sardinian comfort food was my favourite food until this weekend and now i cant wait to go back and eat it ALL!

My wife and I booked Sunday Lunch. We ordered the lamb and porchetta, Both were delicious, the meat and vegetables were great, nice to have a roast with a Sardinian influence. We have been to the restaurant on a few occasions now and love the menu as it differs from your standard Italian fare.

We went last Saturday for the set lunch to see what it’s like. Lovely restaurant with comfortable ambiance. Excellent food, fresh and very tasty. So good to try something different that’s quality. Looking forward to going back!

First time on Friday night. Lovely atmosphere, surroundings & menu. My partner ate 2 starters and I opted for a ravioli stuffed with ricotta, pecorino & saffron, served with the boar ragu. Beautifully light with the rich sauce. Desert was the ricotta/orange cheesecake with homemade vanilla ice cream. The service and food delightful.

Perfection! First visit to this restaurant and won’t be the last. Beautifully decorated and quirky. Had a wonderful evening on Saturday: first class service and the food was truly amazing! I shall be telling my friends.

Visited on a friend's recommendation and we weren't disappointed. Lovely restaurant in meads although it was quiet on a Thursday evening. Service was first class and we had a great table in the window. The food was amazing and the seafood stew was one of the best and freshest I've ever tasted. Wine was excellent and very reasonably priced. We would certainly recommend it and if you are planning a visit its well worth looking at the "pre- order" menu before in order to get the speciality dishes. High quality all round! Thank you!

Excellent, we thoroughly enjoyed our evening meal. Lovely atmosphere and very tasty meal.

Absolutely fabulous dining experience. Lovely atmosphere with great staff, polite and attentive. Now the food. Some of the tastiest and best presented dishes I’ve ever encountered, all cooked to perfection. Not sure there’s a better, more authentic Italian restaurant in Sussex.

5 star!

We had a really lovely evening celebrating a friend's birthday...the food was really good and service impeccable! Thank you very much

What an incredible experience. The food was tasty, well cooked and presented. Lovely atmosphere and the perfect hosts.

This restaurant is the very best that Italian food has to offer in the town. No-where else can you find such exquisite, delicious and perfectly cooked Sardinian food that is consistent time and time again. The service is first class and attentive and you are always made to feel welcome and at home. The wait is sometimes a little longer than anticipated but always worth it knowing that you are going to eat exceptionally well and will never be disappointed. Thank you to all at Ancient Grains for simply being here in Meads and providing all your customers with such an excellent service.
