This is hands down my favourite restaurant in Brighton. James and the team are always so warm and welcoming. The space is intimate, with understated but tasteful decor, which just adds to its charm. The food has been consistently excellent on our recent visits, and last night was no exception. We went for the Burns Night special, paired with the suggested wines (and whisky!) – absolutely divine. I’m already looking forward to my next visit!

I heard this place was very good, and my expectations were high. I was not disappointed. In fact, I was very, very, very impressed! The place is beautiful, has a nice homey feeling, it is decorated with very good taste. The service is warm, friendly, competent, and genuinely caring. You can see that they love what they serve, and their smiles are not the prefabricated types of smiles that are fake and insincere. The food is excellent, and the wine list is great, plus it is priced very honestly for the quality of the wines they have. I am used to London prices and this sort of fine dining in London would probably be astronomically priced. I ordered the oysters to start with, then the Dexter tartare and the beans with peach, almond and lavender. Then I had the herb crusted hake with courgettes and raw prawns, a side of potatoes with seaweed and lemon, then the blackcurrant chicken ice and the peach dessert too. This was accompanied by a great Vinho Verde ( 2 glasses ) a perfect pairing suggested by the lovely staff. When the hake came I switched to another incredible wine, again, perfectly matched , a Chardonnay from Santa Barbara ( another 2 glasses) . The desserts were matched with a Riesling for the peach, and an Oloroso for the blackcurrant choc ice, both perfectly chosen by the fantastic staff on duty. This is definitely one of the best meals, if not The Best meal, I ever had in Brighton. Minor things I noticed that by no means detract from the skills of the chef were the lack of lavender taste in the salad of beans, peach, almond and lavender. I did not notice a hint of lavender, but the dish still tasted good and was fresh and delicious. The second thing I noticed was that in the blackcurrant choc ice there was a bit very subtle addition of honey, or honeycomb, possibly in the decoration on top of the chic ice. I am a big dessert person, and I do love cakes, ice creams, etc. But I am not a big fan of honey, and in this specific dessert, the blackcurrant choc ice, it was unnecessary. Still, if I had to rate this place from 1 to 100, I would give a solid 98. This is good that deserves a trip from London! I can’t wait to go back ! Thank you to all of you guys you were magnificent!
