English's of Brighton

Food average. Nothing special and over priced

Wine very expensive

The restaurant was very accommodating when changing the number of diners in our party. The food was delicious and the set menu was well priced for the quality of the food. Overall a very pleasant evening with old friends in a good quality fish restaurant in Brighton.

All of us love seafood platter , which is very delicious. We enjoyed the good service from handsome waiters and we were very happy. But the salmon is too salty for us.

Revisited English's after a few years. Lunch menu was excellent value , great whole plaice. Courteous and friendly staff.

A favourite location for lunch al fresco.

Fish dishes amazing

I have been going to English's over the years for forty years about. It is better than ever. On Saturday we got, as usual, a ready and warm greeting, our table - generous - was ready, we had drinks, starters, middles - the Dover sole on or off the bone, is tremendous, pudding, coffee, everything is just right. It is a gem, we cannot wait to go again, especially now that grand-daughter Holly is going to the University of Sussex this autumn for at least three years - we can take her to English's regularly to be sure she is eating properly!

Lively location in the town centre. Service impeccable with proper napkins! Set menu very good. Starters & desserts superb but mains could be refined. For example toast with fried sea bass was slightly incongruous. The rump steak was served with garlic butter which was a very cold lump of liquid looking like cream. A handful of rocket was also on the plate. Wine was expensive but very good. The bill for 2 was over £100!

Returning to an old favourite last visited in the 1970's was not a disappointment. The lunch menu was good- tasty, well cooked and, of course, well-presented. Being able to sit outside in good weather was a bonus. The old slight downside was the repeated plea for 'donations' to music further down the street that we were barely aware of!

The first time I had been there for over 10 years. As good as always. Great food and service, good atmosphere and not overpriced!
