Anatolia Cuisine in Brighton and Hove

Starters were incredibly small for the price; mains were incredibly expensive (£20 for pretty much everything on the menu) and soft drinks served directly in a small glass. Did not feel like a high-quality experience; and the service was not particularly warm and friendly.

strong recommendation. Food was delicious, service and atmosphere very relaxing and nice.

Portions are very small and overpriced. We took an imam bayldi as a main course. The portion was very small for a main course. A vineleaves (yaprak) was just 4 vineleaves. The service was good but overpriced and we left hungry. Do not recommend it.

First visit and we were very impressed. Great food and hospitality. We will be back.

The restaurant was busy and we hadn't booked but they were able to accommodate us as we only needed a table for two. The menu had plenty of choice, accompanied by a good wine list. The food was delicious and well presented. I didn't catch the names of all the staff who served us but Ahmed and Mehmet were friendly and helpful, making our visit an enjoyable one.

Great find. The food and service was amazing. We would definitely recommend. We had window seats which was a real bonus.

amazing food, great service and a lovely ambiance. definitely will come back!

The food was excellent, the service superb and we felt we were back among friends. We had the family meze platter and it was fabulous. Too much - we have brought some back for tomorrow. Our last trip here was about 2017. A pandemic, two moves, five prime ministers and a new king later we slipped back in like putting on a favourite pair of shoes. Wonderful night.

Great for an evening out. Service was a little slow, but great food. Lovely ambience. Would eat here again. Restaurant was busy but not noisy so could enjoy conversation.

Don't be misled or put off by the slightly tired exterior, inside you will encounter a sincere and warm welcome and OMG the food! The halloumi was done perfectly and so light. And as for the falafels, surely it takes quite something to distinguish oneself making a humble falafel special, but wow did they manage it, fresh and tasty, wonderful texture - delicious! I'll be back!

Been to Brighton loads of times and had never been in. Lovely lights on the ceiling and in a nice location but a bit dark. Service was good with two waitresses splitting the work. Got the falafel which was gorgeous. Then got the chicken shish for the main, both came with really nice bread, unsure if homemade. Liked the starter more than main but it was very good. Portion was huge.

Very good service. Delicious food. Very nice environment.

First time visiting Brighton. Found this gem of a restaurant just round the corner from where we were staying. We ate here twice and the food and hospitality was on point. We are visiting Brighton again in October and will definitely eat here again.

Kebab Iskanadar and the mix grill were so good

Such a lovely place to eat at. Food was absolutely amazing and the service was amazing as well. I will definitely come again.

Had a delicious mixed grill here this evening, everything on the plate was so tasty, the meat was so tender. The staff were very friendly and our waitress couldn’t do enough for us. We will definitely be back again

Our first time in Brighton and came across this gem of a restaurant on our 2nd night. A warm, friendly welcome and delicious food. We enjoyed it so much we went back the next evening. Would definitely recommend and will return here to eat when we next visit Brighton.

Ahmed is super professional in everything food&service&and hospitality he is really good he deserves 100 ⭐️⭐️

Today we ate two Adana with salad and rice. The rice was musty, the meat was dry, so it was mediocre. The service was nice. We paid 39.80 pounds. We won't be eating here again

Amazing fresh cooked food. I ordered IMAM BAYILDI and it was perfect. I will definitly come back to this place, Anatolia, I loved it. 10 stars

This is a great place to eat if you like turkish cuisine, if you have not tried before I do encourage you to do so. You never go wrong with Anatolia, freshly cooked meals, friendly staff, great location. This was my second visit and as first time, they surprised me with amazing flavours of main meals, very tasty desserts and one of the best turkish coffees. Thank you Anatolia, will come again 🤝

Tried for the first time and experience was very bad. The staff is very rude and I ordered chips, they prepared it in 15mins saying that come back in 10mins. Wast of time and food was very oily . No sauces or salt with the chips and long wait just for chips.

Tasty food, well prepared. We booked online and ended up with window seats right across from Al Forno, the other great find in this neighborhood. I loved the decorations, especially the colorful lamps. The cooking takes place right in front of you.

Popped in for a wrap as had limited time. Was impressed by the service & food. It took 5 minutes for the server to cook & serve me a delicious falafel wrap!! Also cooking & serving 4 others and taking phone bookings. Highly recommend!! Will come back for an evening meal!!

Great place to eat.. Highly recommend.. friendly atmosphere and polite staff 👍

Great place with great food. The charcoal meat flavour is amazing! A little bit pricey but well worth the price! The portions are big so be mindful of that when ordering.

Fantastically good food! Meat and vegetables grilled on a charcoal grill in the restaurant. Very helpful waiters and flexibility for adaptations due to diet. I didn't want rice or bread with my main course, but there was still plenty of food. Ate here two nights in a row as I was very happy with everything the first night. Highly recommended!

As part of our stay in Brighton for my Fiance's birthday, we came here for dinner. This restaurant was only a few minutes walk from our hotel. As it was almost 9pm on a Monday night the restaurant wasn't very busy but when we came in, a lot of people seemed to be paying their bills. It worked for us as we enjoyed the service almost being solely on us. The food came quickly once we ordered and honestly it was one of the nicest Turkish meals we have ever eaten. Everything was cooked and seasoned to perfection. The portions were very generous and so filling. We went back to our hotel with very happy and full stomachs. 10/10. We don't live in Brighton but on our next visit to the City we will be back again.

Amazing! My friend and I went for dinner here last week, I had the vegetable moussaka, she had the lamb and we shared some halloumi. Food was delicious, so tasty, one of the best meals I’ve had in a long long time - and plenty of it! The service was amazing, so attentive and welcoming. This was my first time eating here, but I will be back.. can’t wait!

Stopped by for a late lunch, and the food was great but the water they served out tasted like it came out of a used washer. Then when we were on our way out, the chef followed us outside to lecture me about not closing the door fast enough while I was getting my coat on. Really odd because we were already on the street.

Fantastic quality and well priced!

Excellent Service, excellent food and excellent Price! Can't ask for more. Thanks Anatolia, highly recommended 💯 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Very tasty food, perfectly grilled chicken on the spit and very nice staff. Price performance super fair. :)

One of the best Turkish restaurants in Brighton! Must try!

Iskander kebab and lamb chops 🍖 Very delicious, I recommend it

Absolutely outrageous flavours so we'll done 👍

1st time visit. Seriously outstanding food and service. Wonderful journey of spices and textures. Highly recommended

Very tasty fish and nice staff, good service, nice atmosphere

I really liked the food, the service was great too, overall no complaints. I ordered the liver for starter and the falafel for main: too much food for me, although it was tasty enough that I gave it a good old try

Really nice food, great kebab cooked in front of you. Nice salads and bread very succulent Lamb. My partner had a veggie kebab and that was good too. The only issue was the ice cream wasn’t good! Nice people nice place x

Food not cooked and still not cooked after being sent back, staff did not seem interested at all

Food is incredible! Borek were the best I’ve ever had, as well as the hummus kavurma- the lamb was so tender and tasty! Mains were very generous portions and delicious. Great value and really lovely food. Only downside was slight lack In atmosphere - it was v quiet in there but otherwise a beautiful meal.

We stumbled across this restaurant by accident, as we are staying in a guest house two mins away. Warm welcome, delicious fresh food, and excellent service. We will definitely be back!

The food menu has a good range of typical Turkish dishes and was very tasty at a reasonable price. It wasn't especially busy for a Friday night and staff were pleasant enough but not especially positively engaged with each other or the customers.

Great little Turkish grill in the heart of Brighton's Kemptown. The restaurant isn't anything fancy but the food is absolutely delicious.

Great delicious food, helpful service , starter was big. Lovely restaurant, should be busier! Good value

Wonderfully fresh and magically tasty; a broad spectrum of dishes, definitely one to go to. Reasonably priced and monster portions - I think we were the only ones who didn’t leave with a doggy bag (probably because I skipped lunch) The service was utterly brilliant!

Lamb chops are crazy good. We went there two times.

Went here yesterday with a friend. Only was us two, for the most part. But it was really great and tasteful food with great customer service.

Great Turkish food - good service

Mohammad best staff and best food

Our favourite restaurant. Delicious food , serving so nice. Highly recommend Adana kebab and Islander kebab my favourite. If you love the Turkish food- Anatolia is the best.

I had hot mixed maze starter as a main and it was delicious. My friend had chicken shish, also tasty. Recommended.

Great food, wine and service. Brilliant find a stones throw from our hotel. We loved it!

This is very good and covers the full range of Turkish cuisine, much as you would find it in North London or any other city with a large Turkish population - and you can get wine and beer as you would expect. Nice food, friendly service perhaps a bit busy on Fridays and weekends, but generally the service is pretty tasty and promptly served. I'd give it 4.5 stars, but I putting it down as a full 4!

Bland food + the manager (bald one) had a really bad attitude + little portions for the price paid. Don’t go here.

Beautiful food lovely staff will definitely return and recommend

Very bad food and the way how they treat waiters very bad they want to use our country For their own purposes they use bad words, they think they are better than others, and they are the worst people .you have to know you work illegality! Thes is not Turkey there is law here if you don't stop doing the horrible thing go to Turkey? there you can us your horrible thing with people

Good food from the big grill. Happy place

Such a lovely place, and food and drink was yummy in our tummies!

This place is wonderful. We had a fantastic dinner. Highly recommend. Staff is very kind.

Saw this last on Friday and knew I wanted to try it. Went along on Saturday and thoroughly enjoyed it. Greet food and friendly staff.

The best Turkish food we’ve had! Really great Baba Ghanoush and chicken shish

Bonne cuisine, plats frais et tarifs raisonnables.

Uno de los mejores restaurantes turcos que he probado nunca. ¡¡100% recomendado!!

The food was delicious and tasty. I have been in many places in Turkey but this restaurant in Brighton serves the best food. For a starter I had amazingly tasty Baba Ganoush,Grilled Haloumie and the bread. Chicken Shish and Mix Grill was perfectly grilled, then seasoned served with salad, rice and bread. Overall the service and a food and atmosphere of the restaurant was outstanding. I would definitely recommend.

Fabulous food, perfectly cooked and fresh. Couldn't ask for better traditional Turkish food

Lovely atmosphere (waiters singing along to the background music ), and good choice of starters, mains and desserts.

Lively restaurant with a very good atmosphere. Authentic Turkish food and drinks with plenty of menu options. Good value and not expensive. Friendly staff. Definitely worth booking as it gets very busy even during the week.

We got recommendations for this restaurant and went there for lunch. The service was quick and very friendly. The food was very tasty. ery friendly welcome, very tasty food.

Fantastic meal, attentive staff . What more do you need?

Lovely and welcoming environment 😊 aswell as great food obviously

Word to the wise - try the 'kunefe'. Exquisite!

Absolutely amazing food. Big portions. Going to be my favourite place in Brighton. Definitely will be back.

Food wasn't 5 star in all honesty. I've been to many Turkish restaurants so I can compare. Food was average. Cocktails were very poor.

Superb food and service. Outstanding location. Wish I could give 10 stars. Congratulations to the team!

Tasty food, very good service. Clean please.

Yummiest place in Brighton. 1000% recommend the lamb ribs.

How this place was not busier on a bank holiday Sunday was beyond me! It must still be a hidden and undiscovered gem! So glad we stumble across Anatolia - the service and food was incredible, the best bread with hummus we have ever had! So nice to watch the chef cook over coals too. The service has to mentioned as so attentive and polite, just a joy! Thanks team, keep doing what you're doing!

Netter Service, Essen sehr gut.

We had our delicious lunch at this lovely restaurant Anatolia Turkish restaurant on 21/05/2023 Sunday afternoon, their food was amazing we really loved them, they were all delicious yummy kebab we had and their ayran drink and also their cold and hot meze are amazing, don’t miss this chance and visit them and try their food once you will always go back to them.

Try to go often. Excellent Turkish menu. Friendly efficient service.

I visited this restaurant a few months ago with my friend. I had a very bad experience. Everything was fine, we were eating, drinking, chatting and laughing, while we noticed that the chef was looking at us and talking to the waiters about us, they openly made fun of us being lesbian and having fun together. This is the first time we have encountered such an attitude. Knowing that there are people of this mindset and being exposed to it is really painful.

Great Food! Recommend Lamb, Chicken and Liver! Meze also very tasteful. My favourite Turkish restaurant from now.

Been a couple of times now on the occasions we've travelled to Brighton, love everything about the place.

First class fresh food exceptional staff wonderful well priced Turkish wine this is a little gem of a restaurant dishing up some of the tastiest food you will find in Brighton.

Amazing! Everything is so delicious! Sometimes if I eat at Anatolia one evening, I’ll go back the next because of how good it was! The staff is super friendly and the service is excellent. The atmosphere is also really great with the Turkish music and decor. My favorite restaurant in Brighton!

Excellent meal and service! I really enjoyed the food and beer and I highly recommend getting anything cooked on the grills. Funnily enough, the bread that was served alongside the starters was fantastic, and I would go back for that alone.

Love this place. Consistently excellent, both food and service. Lovely atmosphere. Meat delicious and smells amazing. Great salads, dips and bread too.

Had the Adana kebab- it was juicy, flavourful, and tender - served with a fresh, crisp salad well dressed, roasted vegetables with a tasty smoked flavour, and delicious rice and flat bread. Together all the flavours were amazing and well paired. I also had a cold bottle of Efes pilsner beer to help cut through the richness of the meal. My wife got the veggie moussaka and she said it was very tasty as well. Large portions, good value, and friendly attentive service.

It's ok here but we noticed a big price increase since our last visit and portions smaller. The lamb was a bit chewy though!

Great authentic Turkish food , warm service

We went to this restaurant and ordered 3 portions of food with soft drinks, charged £59.70 and after a few minutes I called and ordered the same food again and gave the price of 47 and explained the story, but unfortunately they treated me very badly and They hung up the phone and had very bad service

Nice meal with friendly staff. The kebabs were cooked to perfection which is the most important thing. The service was great despite how busy they were. The wine selection seems to have been updated with a few nice options as well as good beers available.

Iv had Turkish food before but for me it was ok, service was ok , I had starter manis shish touk was lovely , but no sauces given no check back, rice was dry for me and plain ! 😊 but overall ok 👍

The food is amazing great menu if you can't decide the sharing platter for two delicious. If you have room for dessert the pastry with cheese kenefe is so good. Staff are wonderful welcoming and friendly.

Excellent food. Lamb ribs are very tasty. As are Lamb Chops.
