Ami Bistro is a fantastic restaurant due to the attentive front of house and delicious food. It’s so refreshing when the front of house can give recommendations because they’ve actually eaten the food off the menu. All of the front of house worked together like a well oil machined and the customer service was excellent. Our main waitress Shannon was bubbly and professional. You can tell Shannon is very passionate about the restaurant, menu and the customer experience. All three of us eating tonight agreed that this was the best meal we have eaten in such a long time. I can personally recommend the Hot Cheese Dip sharer, Minted Lamb Croquettes and Creme Brûlée! Also the Sour Cherry and Plum Mojito was such a fun and tasty twist on a classic cocktail! I wish I had taken more photos of the meal as each course was well presented! We were all just lost in the moment and enjoying the amazing food and drinks in front of us! I was surprised to see some negative reviews however I recommend that you try Ami Bistro for yourself. It really is great value for money. Thank you so much you’ll definitely be seeing us again!

We had a reservation for 3 but the restaurant was sadly empty of customers so we were feeling a bit lonely. The cocktail was great and the food too but not astonishing, lacked a bit of seasoning and I was not so inspired by the menu.

We visited for a quick lunch on Friday and opted for some small plates, as usual the food was excellent as was the service, the real highlight for us was the bao buns which is something you really have to try, Amis is one place that never fails to impress.

Amazing food, great service and an all round lovely restaurant. We had a great time and found the food and drinks very reasonably priced for such quality. We had the Pork Belly and the Chicken mains and they were absolutely delicious, would definitely come back again and recommend to friends and family. Thanks for a lovely evening.

I was expecting a lot better quality of food for the price and the place has no atmosphere. It was completely dead and the staff just seemed really awkward

In my opinion this restaurant is not suitable for large groups, mostly due to the layout of fixed booths. We booked for 20 people and expected one long table but despite checking on the morning of our event and still expecting it to be one table, we arrived to find we were split into 2 tables, one of which couldn’t be accessed so had to be rearranged. The need to hurriedly rearrange our seating plan was a poor start to the evening, with some of our guests upset by the change. The inflexibility of the table placements was in direct contrast to our previous special event at the restaurant 5 years earlier when we were accommodated partly in the middle of the restaurant and this is what we were expecting this time. As regards the meal, the food service was good and the food served efficiently and hot. However some of our guests were unimpressed with some of the dishes. It was thought that the sea bream was overwhelmed by the tomato and red pepper risotto and it was visually unattractive. The mushroom tart was rather odd. It appeared to be a flat circle of pastry for the base with a mix of mushrooms etc piled up on top, again visually unattractive in my opinion. The fillet steak was well received. Of the desserts, none of our guests liked the banoffee pie. The poached peaches were generally under ripe and hard and the berry compote was so sour it was inedible. So overall we felt it was an expensive and generally disappointing experience and it is most unlikely that we would eat at Ami Bistro again or recommend it.

We chose Ami for my Dad’s 75th Birthday - a booking of 20. We’d communicated weeks in advance regarding the deposits and pre-orders, and my mum called twice to check that the tables would not have anyone sat on the end (as head of table) - once on the day itself - explaining we had a seating plan with everyone opposite one another. We’d pre-agreed with the restaurant that the party would arrive at 6:30pm for drinks, with food from 7:30pm. On arrival, we found they’d split up the party into 2 tables! 1 table was so carelessly laid out that you couldn’t get in on one side and barely the other. Despite having just 2 tables for 2 people in the middle of the room, they wouldn’t do what we asked (and expected) and put us on 1 long table for health and safety. Even having the cheek to say ‘there was no prior discussion on either side about the seating plan’ - if you book a table for any size, you do not expect to be separated without being told at the time of booking! This meant me having to do my best to redo the seating plan rather than being with our guests as they arrived. It also meant 4 sets of people being on the end of the tables rather than 2, and 10 people with backs to each other. More importantly, separating my parents on Dad’s special evening. Having arrived for 6:30pm for drinks, they didn’t seem at all set up for this. One of the staff commented that ‘they’re not licensed to sell at the bar and are doing us a favour’. Asking us to sit down because of the other (4) guests…there’s a courtyard garden, not even an offer of the use of this. They took a long time to serve the drinks. Why would we arrive an hour before food to just sit at the table? We’d have gone to a bar! There was no attempt to offer us any compensation, i.e. some free drinks, for the obvious upset. To top it off, they added a service charge to the drinks despite the food also having a 12.5% charge! The only extra effort they did make was to put a candle in Dad’s dessert - pretty standard. Despite leaving it a few days since we were there, no-one has been in touch, which says a lot. Whilst the food was reasonable, the service we received was not. We’d spent Dad’s 70th there and had an entirely different experience. Apparently the ownership has changed. Were we surprised to see it half full on a Friday night? Sadly not. We won’t be returning again and the experience didn’t impress a number of potential new customers.

What a fantastic hidden gem in Worthing. Five minute walk from the seafront. Very friendly, excellent service, food delicious. Appetiser, of olives and a dish of crispy jalapeño peppers. Which were very tasty. Followed with Brie and my husband had the calamari. Both dishes were fresh and delicious The calamari made from fresh squid, not from a frozen bag. I had the filet steak, blue cheese sauce, tenderstem brocoli and sautéed potato. Perfect, tender steak and vegetables cooked to perfection. My husband had the pork belly, fondant potato and baked cabbage again all perfect. I would highly recommend you visit if you are in Worthing.

Great service and ambiance, had the pork belly and sea bream for mains, both tasty and generous portions. For starters the goats cheese trifle was nice but served in a sort of glass cocktail dish which looked nice but difficult to eat, the calamari was good. Had a bottle of Argentinian rose which was very nice. The cocktails were disappointing, very sweet and not sure how they were made. I couldn’t fault the service, very charming and friendly.

Very good, efficient and friendly service. The meatball starter was delicious. We did however think £10.50 was a bit over priced for 2 meatballs. The main course of pork belly was wonderful, tasty and melt in the mouth. The best pork belly I have eaten out. All the accompaniments were so well matched and complimented each part of the dinner.

I loved the warm atmosphere and the attentive but not intrusive service. Food was beyond my expectations. After being very disappointed with fine dining restaurants in the past, I was won over by the amazing flavours and care put in to the preparation and presentation. My favorite was the chickpeas in the aubergine dish. I will definitely return

First visit to Ami Bistro and was not disappointed. My brother and his wife have eaten at many restaurants across the country so for them to say the food was exceptional was the highest compliment. I had the lamb rump which was very tasty with a lovely soft fondant potato accompanied by a fabulous jus. They had crispy calamari followed by sea bream and tuna. It was finished off with homemade ice cream. This restaurant is an absolute gem and not to be missed for those who love fine dining.

We had heard a lot of good things about this restaurant so thought we'd try it. It turns out that they are all true. The food, service and restaurant are 1st class and can't be faulted. I ordered the Come Dine With Me Winning starter and main, which is smoked haddock and mackerel in white wine and parmesan sauce, followed by the lamb rump, and my wife had the brie followed by pork belly. Both meals were superb. I just wish we had a little room for a dessert.

Came with 5 friends and every plate was clean at the end - says it all! We ordered bread and balsamic vinegar, prawn crackers and home made tortillas to nibble on along with a round of lush cocktails whilst choosing the rest of our meal - proper cocktails with a kick too, none of this sugary nonsense now in many of Worthing’s cocktail bars. Felt spoilt for choice with the menu but the salmon starter was absolutely delicious and can’t see how it would be topped with a different choice next time I visit! Everyone in our group raved about their mains - pork belly, monkfish and fillet steak (which was cooked PERFECTLY!) We finished our evening with a cheeseboard and some amazing dessert cocktails. Mint matchmakers with an alcoholic twist? Yes please! There was a good selection of wines - can recommend the white Rioja - and service was efficient and friendly. Also loved the playlist in the background. Will definitely be back!

We booked this restaurant to celebrate a special 40th birthday which I told the restaurant on booking. We had a lovely booth and the waiting staff were attentive. However our evening was spoiled by a table of 8 the other side of the room who were excessively loud. They weren’t youngsters but were so caught up with themselves and with their loud communicationthey had no thought to the affect their shouting and excessively loud talking had on other diners: .we couldn’t hear each other talking on our table as a result. The cocktails were sublime but the food was average and no way fine dining. If I wanted to eat spicy food I would have booked a table at a top Indian or Thai restaurant which would have been offered diverse, tasty, and better value dishes. Very disappointed as it was a special birthday but nothing special about our choice of restaurant. Sorry we won’t return.

Four of us we had a tremendous series of high quality starters, mains and desserts - not fussy but all superb and incredibly high quality with interesting accompaniments. Even the coffee was way better than the average restaurant espresso or flat white. Worth booking ahead. Also, just to note, we visited on a very cold day and the restaurant was a pleasant warmth

Each dish was carefully curated, flavourful, and absolutely delicious. You can tell that a lot of thought and effort went into each dish. There are fantastic options for vegetarians and non-vegetarians alike (I tried every veggie option from the tapas menu - all of them were amazing but I loved the cauliflower the most!).

We were celebrating my Dad’s 70th birthday, and 3 of us arrived early, 2 of us arrived half an hour late 🙄 the staff were patient, attentive, we got set up with nibbles and drinks while we waited for them!! 🤪 Anyone who served us was charming, our starters arrived (they wanted to make sure we weren’t disappointed and to maybe order ASAP as a larger table had pre-ordered, and warned us there might be a wait for our food if we held off!) we had the Brie, the ham hock (highly recommend!) and the calamari - then for mains we had the sea bream, pork belly, chicken supreme and 2 lamb (ALSO really recommend!!) If I asked for their opinion on which dish out of 2, the staff were right every time! 👌🏼 A perfect spot for a special occasion or a fine dining meal out in a hidden gem of a spot - thank you, you made our evening really memorable and easy - thank you so, so much!

Be sure not to mistake Ami Bistro’s single page of starters as being the lunchtime alternative to their a-la-carte. For, out of the most forbearing respect for the customer’s prerogative, the management will not so much as hint that sir and madam may have forgotten to order main courses. You, on the other hand, could find yourself leaving both pleased yet vaguely less sated than you would have wished, never to know how the pleasure you’d had from your choice of the chef’s delectable offerings was pretty well guaranteed to continue. This was possibly the case last Friday with a couple at an adjacent table, as the manager surmised when we wondered why our main course orders had not yet been taken. The thing is, it’s as much the chef’s well-deserved pleasure at pleasing you as yours in being so pleased. Parking's a pain, but don't let that put you off . . .

We had a very good meal for four and all enjoyed every choice from the menu and some nice wines. The experience was spoiled by the waiter being less than honest when challenged about a Prosecco order. The menu shows a 200ml bottle of Prosecco for £10. The waiter brought a single 125 ml glass of Prosecco. When asked for the 200ml bottle ordered he claimed to have poured out the Prosecco from the 200ml bottle over at the bar. Clearly not possible as 200ml gives you at least 1 and a half glasses making it worth £10. Really disappointing that he was not honest with us and that he still charged us £10 when he knew we had spotted what he had done. Shame.

Was very disappointed by the food. The menu looks great but only on paper. I took the pork belly and ended up with 2 tiny pork piece on my plate...there is nothing extraordinary about the food and that's a shame as it is quite expensive. The service is great, nothing to complain on that part but the food is not...

The food here is simply outstanding. You would struggle to find a better restaurant on the South Coast. The service from Ryan is excellent, there is a lovely feel about the place and you can really feel the passion that has gone into creating delicious plates of food. Choosing what to eat was the hardest part, it all sounds and looks so amazing. Simply brilliant, well done Ami Bistro. Certainly Worthings No.1

Me and my husband came here for our 1st wedding anniversary dinner, and it was amazing, dining experience was very private, you sit in booths so you can't really see any other diner which I love, we shared 3 starters had a main each and a dessert have no faults with anything, it was all delicious and service was top notch, we'll definitely go back.

Beautifully presented food, well-balanced, perfectly seasoned but unpretentious. Good gluten-free options and knowledgeable staff 6 stars for the excellent service - our waiter was personable, knowledgeable and helpful. He was especially kind and patient with an elderly and rather confused guest. Thank you.

Food was pretty good but not spectacular. The service was too quick that we didn’t feel relaxed and it all felt a little rushed. I asked to put the table back 30 mins but they said they couldn’t do that because there was a mad rush at that time, but the restaurant was half full.

Went in to Ami this evening on the off chance. They do not take 'off the street' bookings. Went to Limings instead & had a great meal. On the way back there were empty tables at Ami. How pretentious. Will definitely never go there again ever!!

A must dining experience in Worthing. We came for a Spanish themed night with a great local sommelier. The quality, presentation and portion sizes are incredible. Very friendly and attentive staff. Great value for money. Couldn’t fault them, will be coming back again and have been recommending to everyone!

Second time visiting Ami Bistro and this time was for a Tapas and Wine tasting menu. The food here is exceptional, so big hats off to the chef and the vibe is very relaxed, but trendy. Highly recommend if you have not been - great combination of friendly staff, good service and just amazing food without breaking the bank. Thanks Ami Bistro for a great evening, look forward to the next time!
