Kouzina in Brighton and Hove

Lovely authentic Greece Food and very good prices and the lady owner was very charming and spoke About there menus

We went here for a return visit after not having been for years. It was so good again. We had the mere cold plate which had humus, salad, olives, tahini, tzatziki, beans on sauce, etc. We also ordered stuffed aubergine, chicken and peppers and a vegetarian casserole. We really over ordered but the food was great. We ate it all then even found room for baklava and a warm custard in filo pastry with coffee. It felt like being in Greece.

Food was amazing. Really tasted good and authentic. Really nice environment with very polite staff. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone.

Having worked in Greece for a few year this is the real deal. Lovely family feel and atmosphere, great food and service. They happily let me charge my mobility scooter battery - thanks saved the day. Recommended look forward to my next visit.

This little restaurant is incredible! We had the vegetarian moussaka, and it was delightful! Not too oily or heavy, and not too salty either, it was just perfect. It came with an assortment of salads (small scoops of each), which round it it very nicely. The service was very quick, the restaurant was clean but fuss-free, and the prices were quite decent (£9 for a very large and filling lunch, £3 for a big, mouth-watering slice of baklava!). I loved it!!!

This was my second visit to this lovely ‘rustic’ Greek cafe for lunch. On each occasion I was greeted warmly and the food was outstanding value and so fresh. I’m kicking myself that I hadn’t visited before on my occasional visit to the market. Today I had the meze plate & previously had the moussaka with salads. Beautifully presented authentic Greek home style cooking - do go - you won’t be disappointed!!

Would give 6 stars if I could. An absolute delight. Food better than I've ever experienced in Greece. And the prices are just jaw dropping. Me and my husband will definitely come back to this 'house of lovely flavours'

I love this place.Never had a bad meal and have visited around 15 -20 times.Yes it can get quite busy but surely that's a good sign!Gold star!

Located in the open market on London Road this small Greek cafe punches above its weight with its food. There are usually at least 6 options for main meals and they are always delicious and filling. The staff are friendly and the prices very reasonable. It's why it is usually pretty busy.

We had to wait 45 minutes for food. No apology- people arriving after us fed before us - not good. When the food arrived it was only warm and on cold plates. When we left most of the tables we unoccupied and not cleared. The food was reasonably tasty. Not the sort of place that deserves our hard earned money Geoff

Excellent little find and very pleasant service. Went for breakfast and had both the meat and vegetarian breakfasts and was fresh and tasty. Good attentive service. Would recommend.

Love this place. Food is so fresh and tasty. Great price. Good size portions and great veggie options.

We happened upon this gem by chance. They serve very healthy delicious food, from meat to vegan. The food is unbelievably good value. Unfortunately, they don’t serve alcohol and you can’t BYO. We had a meze starter each for £2.50 each then a huge mixed plate for £11 which included the best humus I’ve ever had and delicious tzatziki. The plate included Greek sausage, Greek spinach and feta filo pie, moussaka, salad, couscous, a meat moussaka style dish with pasta in it and toast (there were other things too). Everything is home made. Just brilliant. We find that we are rarely impressed when we eat out. We were bowled over with this restaurant.

Just had lunch with my wife on a drizzly Saturday in Kouzina Brighton, but it feels more like eating in Greece than Brighton. We had a light delightful lunch and the food was great, like homemade from a Greek taverna somewhere off the beaten track in central Greece. Kouzina is no frills, small and basic, but brilliant value for money, see photo inc drinks (great coffee) all for £18.....brilliant I will come again.

You have to go find this cafe as it is undercover of the market in London Road Brighton. The food is delicious ; generous in size and reasonable in price. I had Yahni which has inspired me to have a go at making it myself. Delicious

Came after shopping in the open market . Had the Greek lasagne was delicious, and also some feta and spinach pastry parcels . Great service and good atmosphere

You have the nice feeling that you have been invited for lunch by a Greek friend and that his mother has cooked for all the family and you are joining them. I genuinely enjoyed it.

Vine con mi novia a almorzar y me quedé impresionado por la calidad de la comida. Es como si hubieras entrado en un hogar griego, tan acogedor y amable. El valor de lo que está obteniendo es excepcional, mucho más barato que en otros lugares griegos pero lleno de sabor. ! Recomienda el Pastitcho - versión griega de lasaña

Encontramos esta pequeña joya mientras paseamos por las calles de Brighton. Este lugar es auténtico con una excelente comida griega a un precio muy razonable. Teníamos pastitsio, salchichas caseras con meze y cazuela de pollo. Cada comida estaba llena de sabores griegos reales y cocinada con amor!¡Gracias! Sin duda volveremos cuando visitemos Brighton nuevamente.

I been this restaurant today lunch time and also been before. This is a lovely place, atmosphere excellent, service and food excellent. Today I had Vegetarian selections, was excellent taste, Yummy. I have to say, Staffs are friendly and lovely.

Mi frappe debe haber sido una de las mejores ofertas de café que he tenido en el Reino Unido.Me senté en una mesa y conseguí un buen trabajo de planificación. La comida era bastante tentadora también.Me encanta cómo ha cambiado esta área de Brighton, ¡no tenía idea de que todos estos negocios brillantes ahora estaban ubicados aquí!

Had lunch here. Great atmosphere and you couldn't find more authentic Greek cuisine if you tried. Very reasonable price that makes it cheaper than a fast food outlet. Great service.

Fantastic authentic Greek food! Absolutely delicious! My son is doing a project on Greece and wanted to try some real Greek food. Kouzina was a big hit, fantastic freshly cooked,vibrant and very flavourful!

Había visto este lugar anteriormente en un viaje a Brighton, así que decidí probarlo. Como era viernes un poco más tranquilo que el fin de semana, ¡pude conseguir una mesa! Pedí el vege meze aunque comí carne porque se veía muy apetitosa y viene con queso halloumi frito. Fue celestial la variedad de diferentes alimentos para 5. 50 fue excepcional. Comida realmente preciosa!

He estado aquí media docena de veces y siempre muy, muy impresionado. El servicio es excelente, y la comida es realmente atípica griega. Sin embargo, lo que realmente hace que se destaque es la atención al detalle de cada elemento colocado en la placa. Todo es perfecto, desde la ensalada griega hasta el tzatziki, la calidad de las aceitunas y el pan ligeramente asado. Si Michelin fuera galardonado con estrellas para cafés, este lugar sería famoso.

This is the most amazing place to eat! Thoroughly enjoyed our meal here! Awesome food and outstanding hospitality! Will most definitely visit again! My daughter is so blessed to live in Brighton and able to visit much more often than me! Highly recommended!

Had a lovely lunch today here with my family. Had the Meze plate which was great and only £5.50 so really good value. Authentic Greek food and great prices. Good coffee too.

You MUST come here. Whether you prefer something fresh, order "Koupe", kind of meat/veggie croquettes with salad . But if you prefer something hot, casseroles like "Fasolakia" will give you a healthy boost to visit the city. 10/10

Having just moved around the corner from the open market, I've seen and heard about this place, and just decided to give it a go. £5.50 for the most delicious mezze platter I think ive ever had. Will deffo be returning!

Excellent toast with olive oil. It came decorated with two generous portions of chicken cooked in a spicy-but-not-hot sauce with slabs of potato, plus olives, iceberg chunks of feta cheese, and salad. Very filling. Worth it for the toast.

Having lived in Greece for many summers as a teenager I can honestly say this food is hard to beat. Honest, fresh and great portions if you need to share on a budget. Some ice cold retsina would have made it perfect !!!

I'd say this is one of the best, if not then best, Greek restaurant/cafes in Brighton. The food not only tastes delicious, but fresh and authentic. The service is warm and friendly too. Well worth a visit for lunch.

For a fiver you get a huge mezze plate with a dozen different foods, delicious and authentic. Other great dishes including soups and stews, all amazingly priced. Very friendly staff. As its in the Open Market, now covered, it can be a bit nippy in winter, so good to sit right inside, but in the warmer months good to sit more outside and watch the world go by.

Came here with friends & we had the mezze plates -- at £5 each, they were probably the best food bargain I've had in a long time. The many flavours & textures were wonderful. The coffee too was excellent. All this with smiling, obliging service. Perfect.

Muy buen restaurante, disfrutando cada vez que voy. La comida siempre es perfecta y el personal también son muy amables y siempre con una sonrisa. Soy griego y sé que la calidad de la comida es muy buena y me recuerda mucho los platos de Grecia/Chipre. Mis amigos y yo probamos cada plato y estamos muy contentos. Los precios son muy buenos y razonables para la calidad de la comida y siempre fresca y agradable. Recomiendo visitar el restaurante alrededor de las 13:00 por lo que podrá encontrar todos los platos disponibles antes de las 17:00 de la mayoría de ellos se han ido por la demanda. Un trabajo realmente bueno con esto. Mi restaurante favorito en el REINO UNIDO sin duda! !

Really top Greek coffee, pastries, salads and hot dishes- stifatho, moussaka, feta and spinach filo pie. Nice relaxing atmosphere, don’t miss it

Kouzina visité por primera vez, en septiembre, cuando yo estaba ayudando a mi hija a su plana de moverse. Estábamos muy cansados y hambrientos y no sabíamos qué esperar. Tuve spanokapita ella y mezze vegetariana. Ambos platos estaban absolutamente deliciosa, compartimos! El mezze tenía una encantadora selección de vegetariano bits, incluyendo humus, un plato sabroso, remolachas ensalada de alubias, ensalada griega, halloumi, etc., todo servido con pan precioso! El spanokapita era realmente bonita, era la primera vez que me habia intentado. También tuvimos una buena taza de té bien hecho. . . Esto realmente nos remontan. después de un día agotador.

Homemade Greek food! Can't really fault it everything tasted lovely! Shame it's a bit far out of the centre but will be going back!

I have been here several times and I must say the food is superb and drinks, especially the Greek coffee, are fabulous and well worth a visit to the open market very bijou and busy and everything fresh wheelchairs welcome xxxx

Como un estudiante - te encuentras contando centavos, que generalmente conduce a comida barata para llevar; no es la opción más nutricional. Sin embargo, logra ser barato Kouzina, saludable con comida que es lleno de sabores robustos.

He estado allí varias veces con amigos y visitantes. Por desgracia, sólo está disponible para el almuerzo y después de las 4:00 hay muy pocas opciones a la izquierda. Hubiera sido estupendo si estaban abiertas por la noche.

Tuve el plato de meze y para 5 libras fue increíble! ! Muy buena comida a un precio tan barato. También es deliciosa

Déjese seducir y, en última instancia, decepcionado tras la Kouzina comentarios favorables en tripadvisor. Quizás fue un gran error para visitar a la hora del almuerzo un sábado. Las edades esperamos un pedido y luego de nuevo a ser servido como un montón de otros....

Sono capitato in questo posto per caso con degli amici e ne sono stato attratto subito dalla semplicità e dal clima "casalingo". Buona scelta di piatti della tradizione greca come Moussaka, Souvlaki, Hummous, insalate con feta e Mese varie, molto Mediterraneo, prezzi assolutamente accessibili, buonissimo, ci ritornerò!

Realmente es una experiencia auténtica comida griega. Tuvimos que esperar un rato ya que el restaurante estaba muy concurrido a la hora del almuerzo y todo estaba cocinado. Yo tenía queso feta y espinacas en una pasta fillo una variada selección de ensaladas. Y a estupendos sabores un plato encantador de comida. Personal excelente y podían bien con aquellos que sentarse a comer y el fuego de llevar el servicio.

I love this place, went for lunch with a friend and we both the mezze platter. It was excellent and great value, there's so many different things on there, highlights are the small portion of delicious moussaka and the beetroot salad. Very fresh ingredients and delicious Greek food. They do loads of other things, savoury and sweet. Need to start working my way through the menu!

Nice place e at the open market, decent amount of vegan and veggie options, reasonable prices. Food was very tasty and portion were big. Mezze was great. Definitely recommended.

Very nice selection of different grecque dishes, the moussaka is wonderful, the freshly cut bread and its garlic or the lentils soup remind me of my stay in the Greek island.

We both had the meat Mezze Plate and it was delicious and such good value for the price (£5.00!!). Highly recommend and fantastic to support independent businesses - also did a bit of shopping in the Open Market and bought some gorgeous raw honey from Honey & Tea. Happy days.

One of my local favourites for breakfast (but check the opening time!). A wonderful choice of food, nice Greek music, charming and attentive service. For a huge breakfast or lunch try the mezze plate for £5 - really amazing value!

Went for lunch with my mum and it was fab. An amazing selection for vegetarians and excellent value for money. We just couldn't decide what to have as it all looked so amazing!! My mum had the spinach pie which came with a selection of salads and I had a chickpea stew which came with delicious bread. For both of us this was under £10. This was amazing food and excellent price - hope they stay true to this ethos. Will definitely be going back again!!

Great tasting and great value food in an atmospheric corner of the open market.Lovely salads, mezze's, mousaka, and a whole range of other Greek dishes.Highly recommended!

Went there for lunch meaning to have the moussaka this time, but was once again seduced by the casseroled Greek sausages, along with the olives, the crisp bread, the salad that comes with it - always a plateful, but never too much. Have been here for a late breakfast before, and that was very good as well. Friendly, helpful and relaxed service make it a very pleasant place to eat.

I come here quite a lot, the sausages are among the best in Brighton, always friendly and always delicious. Hard to find anything wrong at all, a firm favourite of mine.

fantastic friendly service in this small cosy Open Market café. The range of food is limited but always great, and the mixed meze plates are wonderful

Lovely people, hard working staff, can't do enough for you. And the food is superb! Seek it out and you will not be disappointed!

Not often in the London Road area but that might change after stumbling across Kouzina. Simple cafe in the Open Market serving really yummy food. Oh the Spanakopita was a lovely piece of simply stunningly delicious artfully prepared pie with tasty salads. Simple plentiful home cooked greek food at its very best. At very fair prices and served with a beautiful smile.

You alway have so many choices in Brighton but our friends have been telling us to go there for ages. We were not disappointed. We had 2 coffees, juices and an amazing meza board.. the flavours were divine.. great sized portions - saying that i still had room for a Baklava... the staff were attentive and had a really pleasant time - watching the world go by! Lovely .

My girlfriend is coeliac. We came here 5 months ago and asked which dishes were gluten free. We were told that the chickpea and spinach stew was gluten free and so were the Greek sausages. When we received our meal it had bread on the same plate. We asked them to take it back and wipe the plate. After receiving the dish back and after eating my girlfriend fell ill for a few days. We put this down to the contamination with the bread on the plate. We came back to try again making sure there would be no bread in the plate. We noticed that one customer had been served a vegetable dish but was not what she had ordered so this was brought back with the bread on the plate. The vegetable dish she was given we were told was gluten free however they tipped the vegetable dish back in the pot it was cooked in however bread had been on this so there was instant contamination. We asked again if the spinach,chickpea and potato dish was gluten free and they said it was . We also asked if the Greek sausages were gluten free and told that they are and also hand made. After ordering these two dishes and eating them my girlfriend started to feel ill within 20 minutes and is almost certain the sausages are not gluten free.We can never come back here because the staff have no concern for people with allergens. This is clear from tipping food that had been contaminated with gluten back in the pan ready for another customer. I am so disappointed that my girlfriends weekend will now be ruined as they've made her ill again ☹️️

Don't need to write too long. "She's cooking real Greek food.!."It's very difficult to find in Brighton.

Delicious home made Greek food, friendly and kind staff, always a treat! Great vegetarian options too..

So... for a Greek or someone who loves authentic Greek food, this is the place to go. Great, fresh, top level raw materials; really well cooked using authentic and traditional recipes and excellent service by lovely staff. Sometimes one doesn't need to say much :) Highly recommended!

Tried this place just fo a takeaway lunch and the surprise has been delicious. Freshly made food with a good assortment for everyone.Comfortable and warm place where you can imagine yourself as a guest in a Greek house. The kitchen is small and familiar. You can see them preparing your food on the go.The staff is very smiley, helpful and friendly.

This is a superb surprise that you could easily walk past without noticing, hidden away in a corner of the Open Market (now covered). But once you've tried it, I guarantee you'll keep coming back as I do.The food is authentic Greek, and the presence of a number of Greek customers when I first went there told me all I needed to know. Sometimes you tend to have a favourite dish at a restaurant you know well, but I can honestly say that I can never decide between about four or five favourites at Kouzina. The Yahni (chickpea and spinach casserole) is recommended for vegetarians, and the sausages are splendid for carnivores. And the portions will be large and will come with mountains of salad. Just one thing - wrap up warm if you're going in winter. The Open Market has a roof, but no doors!

Portions are big. The price for every dishes is small, authentic greek food. Very good ingridienta too. The staff was very kind with us. Even if we spend extra time to choose what to eat.Higly recommended

This is my favourite place for lunch when I go to Open Market to stock up on fruit and veg and meat from the butchers stall. There is a choice of around 6 hot dishes - including veggie options accompanied by salads which are delicious and inviting. I love the Greek sausages and spanakopita but you can have a look at the dishes and choose what you fancy - just like Greece! Mezze is also a good option if you are feeling indecisive! Everything is served with love and generosity. Also excellent coffee, help yourself to mint and lemon infused tap water and dogs welcomed with a dish of water.

Popped in for a late lunch on a Saturday when we were looking around the Open Market. The delicious smells immediately took me back to wonderful Greek holidays and the food exceeded my expectations. Everything we had was tasty, and full of interesting flavours. There is plenty of choice on the menu, we went for the traditional Greek sausage, a soft, melting roasted aubergine filled with beef and béchamel sauce and a cinnamon flavoured slow cooked beef stew with orzo. All were served with a fresh and delicious Greek salad. We will definitely come again, it was so good! Efharisto'!

We were holding an event in the Community Room at the Brighton Open Market (excellent venue by the way). Kouzina provided the catering. I can't fault Vassoula and her team for service, quality, portions size (very generous) and general all round deliciousness. Vegans and non-dairy, gluten free folk catered for with no fuss or compromise on tastiness. It made our event extra special and all the delegates loved the sharing and trying from each other. Fantastic range of drinks as well. Thanks for everything and I'll definitely visit again and bring the family (who were very jealous).

I was really surprised the first time I had lunch at Kouzina. Very close to the authentic taste that greek dishes have when you visit the country. Loving the revithia, lentil soup, moussaka and the big meze platers. My favourite place to go whenever I feel homesick and want to eat some homemade greek food; plus very good prices!

Μην το χάσετε... Νομίζεις ότι είσαι Ελλάδα... Η κ Βάνα είναι η καλύτερη μαγείρισσα της Αγγλίας κ όχι μόνο... Το περιβάλλον είναι αρκετά θελκτικο. Τραπεζάκια για να κάτσεις... Ότι πρέπει για οικογένειες με μικρά παιδιά.

Excellent food and great service at this hidden gem. Salads are very fresh and varied, the spanakopita was as good as I've had in the UK. Lunch for two for under a tenner.

Absolutely amazing little place in the open market! The food is stunning and good value of money, they have also kids size portions and service has always been really friendly.Been there several times and always left in good spirits and never left feeling hungry. This place really have the "home" feeling! Highly recommend (beetroot salad is amazing!) Also Vegan and Veggie options available !

The people who prepare the delicious food in this little cafe really know their flavours - everything is top notch. And while there are usually a couple of meat dishes vegetarians are well looked after too. Everything I've tried here has been excellent... don't miss out on the mixed salads which are truly fabulous.

Tucked away in the corner of the market this little gem is a great place for an inexpensive but wholesome lunch. Great Greek food and substantial sized plates. Certainly not to be missed if you're in the area at lunchtime.

I literally JUST ate a moussaka here. I'm writing this with my clear plate before me. I've had three before but obviously on different visits and it's always delicious. Staff are very smiley and kind. You should go!

Found this by chance in the corner of the open market. Just what was needed for a quick lunch, no fuss, full of character and good authentic Greek home cooking. Good warming soups and stews. I was only disappointed we didn't have time to try the deserts.

A superb little café in Brighton's Open Market (worth a visit in its own right). A visit to Kouzina is like finding a welcoming back street café in Greece. Home cooked food, friendly staff and a great atmosphere. Remarkably low prices for such lovely food. Particularly recommend the Meze Plate or the Seftalia (lamb sausages). It's becoming a regular weekend lunchtime treat!

Fantastic food , made with love. The Greek Breakfast is amazing along with all the daily dishes. I have tried all the dishes and the Mezze plates and they are superb .

Excellent Greek food and service with a smile at Kouzina. Good variety for veggies and carnivores and very good value lunch with generous portions.

We stumbled upon this lovely area while we were visiting Brighton for the day and Kouzina was busy with people having coffee or lunch. The food was fresh and tasty and the feta cheese on the salad was so good we had to buy some the next day to try and replicate the delicious food (we didn't succeed!). Portion sizes were large and we didn't have to eat for the rest of the day. We paid around £17 for two lunches and drinks. witpeople having coffee

Lovely little family run cafe, with free range produce. I was reluctant to go in at first but as it was packed I knew it must be good, and it did not disappoint! I had a spinach and feta pie, with piles of yummy fresh salad, all for a whopping £4.80! I couldn't believe it, and drinks would have only been an extra £ two. We will be back massive thumbs up!

The owner was charming and spoke to me thankfully in Greek. Seating hard on the bottom like in Greece. But I was amazed at the size of the portion of Briam. £4 from memory. Tasted fine but Greeks normally are generous at least they are in Greece. I think the owner has lived in the UK too long and is used to our minuscule portions. So I have never been back even though I would have loved to have spoken more Greek. Ti Crima - what a pity! Perhaps good for a Greek coffee?

Really delicious greek food, very fresh and healthy ingidients. A place really surrounding by the worm of hospitality. You should visit it. ☺☺☺

Very good experience real delicious greek food very fresh and healthy mediterranean recipes for all the family. Really excellent service and gentle people with smile

Shared an excellent moussaka and salad with a friend for a quick snack during a shopping expedition - good value and very tasty.

Decided to have a potter around the open market and found this cafe tucked in the corner, Wonderful greek food. Spoilt for choice and amazing choices for the veggies and vegans. I will be back :)

Where can i start? The food is simply amazing here its propper Greek home made food. The greek sausages are to die for and alway run out quickly so you need to get in early. I wish they had space for more tables as frequently they are full up. The meze plate is huge at only £5 you get so much i also have to mention the greek coffee too i am pleased i have a place close to work to get a decent coffee at last! Come here for great food friendly service, you wont be dissapointed!

An amazing cafe - I go because it is friendly, the food tastes authentically greek and it's somewhere I feel equally comfortable eating alone or with others. I've recently taken my rather fussy partner here who described it as "restaurant quality food at cafe prices" (no mean praise as he considers himself quite a food connoisseur!) Expect to spend £5-7 on a filling and flavorsome meal with fresh jugs of water available if you want to save on the cost of a drink, and there is a salad option for around £4 too.

Visited just yesterday with some friends and was amazed at the little place that is KOUZINA. Tucked away in the corner it's small, no frills, friendly and authentic. The food was wonderful! The menu was small but the the quality 100%. Exactly what you need for a lunch or snack. The greek breakfast was lovely as was the salad bowl. My friend had the casserole which was delicious. Very reasonable price wise. The staff are so friendly and caring too, bringing my friend extra bread for his casserole and us all some free cake! Definitely visiting again and would recommend 110% Thanks for a lovely lunch x

Great find for lunch when we explored the Brighton open market, with a very warm welcome.Tasty spinach & feta pie was turned into a generous lunch by spending a whole extra £1 for a good selection of salads on the side. Bargain. Lentil soup warm & filling.

I live near the recently renovated Open Market, and I'm delighted that Kouzina is so close to me. It's a small cafe in the corner of the market, with fresh, delicious food and friendly staff. You can peek at all the daily specials before making your choice, and you won't go wrong with tender pork meatballs in a tangy lemon and rice soup, juicy sausages served with Greek salad, or an unctuous lamb and lettuce stew, all at ridiculously reasonable prices. The coffee's good, too, and you can even get the food to go - but then you'll miss out on the people-watching at the market!

This independent café/ restaurant offering Greek food in a corner of the newly refurbished Open Market is just great! Freshly prepared mains at very reasonable prices, with a good choice of salad sides (at just £1.00 for a mix of two!) Very generous portions, vegetarian and meaty options, a chance to look at the dishes before you decide (as you would be able to do in Greece!) and relaxed, welcoming service. What's not to like? The mixed meze, with delicious toasted bread with olive oil, is a must, and try the veggies roasted in olive oil and honey.An honest and unpretentious place in a varied and vibrant market.Tourists should seek it out.Locals should support it.

We discovered this place on a visit to the newly renovated Open Market. The market istelf has had a great makeover and worth a visit when they have a weekend antique/retro day. We only had a light lunch at Kouzina but it was a surprise to find a Greek restaurant there at all. Friendly service and great toasted sandwiches with Greek flavours and ingredients. I only wish we had a bigger meal as the food on the next table looked amazing and a huge portion. It may only be a market cafe but it is fun and a definite positive addition to eating in the London Rd area.

Visited Kouzina in Brighton open market London road. This was my second visit. It's a nice stop off to have lunch or just. Snack either way you cannot be disappointed, from the large salad or hearty soups, lovely meat dishes which I have yet to explore. So here's to another good visit, keep the good work up

Kouzina provide the 'obvious' filo and cheese pastries, moussaka and Greek salads (and they do them very well) but they ALSO cook and serve fresh and interesting food that I've never eaten in a UK Greek restaurant. More like home cooking, if your mother could REALLY cook. Meatballs in rice and lemon sauce! Plump tasty sausages that you cut open to reveal delicious meat inside. Toast drizzled in the best Greek olive oil...And it's in the newly reopened Brighton Open Market, so its great for people watching and shopping for other affordable good quality food.

The food was excellent!!! We had awesome homemade food at a great value in a really cozy enviroment. You should try this...

Freshly cooked mediteranian veggie food at good prices. Eat in or take out. Spanakopita (filo pastry with feta) yum!

Kouzina is situated in a corner of Brighton's Open Market and can seat approximately 20 diners. We called in for brunch and opted for a toasted halloumi sandwich, salad bowl and coffee. Everything was freshly prepared and absolutely delicious. If you want a tasty meal that's slightly different from the norm, please try this establishment.. Hot meals were also available and there was plenty of choice.

Had lunch here with a friend last week, having noticed how busy this place was on previous visits to the newly refurbished Open Market. My friend had a mezze plate with dips and bread and I chose a spinach and feta slice with 2 salads. The mains are homemade and delicious and this unpretentious little cafe is a big asset to the market. Service is great too, very friendly and welcoming and at around £12.50 for 2, including soft drinks, I would definitely recommend! Loved watching the passers by and enjoying the market atmosphere as well.
