Interesting menu, delicious food and fantastic service! Would highly recommend. We had the octopus and calamari starter and the cod and the haddock for mains. All perfectly cooked.

This is a lovely little restaurant under the arches on the beach at Brighton. We were warmly welcomed and nothing was too much trouble - we asked if they could turn the music down for my deaf father and it was done in a flash. The food was absolutely exquisite and the wine was very good too! Good value for a great meal.

we have been visiting this restaurant for many years. used to be called Due South. always been a favourite in Brighton. It has been transformed from a friendly well run place to a shambles. my big bugbear in all restaurants is food that is served on cold plates making it either luke warm or cold. this was just one of the problems. customer service non existent. tables are upstairs so all the waiters go downstairs leaving no way to get their attention. I had mr sea bream taken off the bone. I could have done better using my fingers.a pity the food quality was generally good.

We’d ate here last Monday (5th November) and enjoyed a delicious meal. Everything was excellent, including starters, main courses, wine and service. Very highly recommended.

Our first visit was lovely so we decided to go again as a birthday treat for 4. What a let down, the service was appalling - I've never had a meal delivered to me by stretching over the length of the table across my guests, especially when there was plenty of access at either end of the table. The Moules, although beautiful, had too many that were closed and arrived tepid, as was the insipid sauce.
They did take one meal off the bill, but no one asked if the rest of us were satisfied.
All I can think is that as we dined mid afternoon, the sauce chef was on a break and the staff exhausted from the lunch rush and left out food sitting for too long before serving it.
