Hidden gem in Kemptown village! This is the best Asian cuisine in the UK served by heartfelt, passionate people. Don't expect a menu as exquisite dishes are cooked fresh on a daily basis by Nicky. Husband Lonnie is handsomely hospitable and at hand to talk one through the quotidian delights. The best soup that I have ever tasted in my life was the 'Butternut squash, coconut and miso' until I invited my daughter to join me the following day when we were knocked out proper by the 'Panjabi Achari Gobi soup'. Off the scale!! Indonesian salmon, Burmese chicken, Keralan salmon, Malay noodles ... oh and the chai is like being back in India and the beers are lovely and I'm moving to live nearby because I miss the experience so much! I've been around the world but this was a diamond experience; not due to the close proximity of the summer susurrating sea (which was marvellous) but from the magic that Nicky meticulously prepares and that Lonnie generously delivers. Wow!

Great choice. Great explanation of all dishes Super tasty Great décor, lots of plants. Clean. However, mains' portion far too small for the price. Small plate

While visiting me in Brighton, my dad stumbled across Nanima - and after one unforgettable meal he was blown away. He insisted he take me the next day and I’m so glad he did! I’ve lived here nearly seven years, and this is easily the best food I’ve had in the city!!! The flavours are rich, comforting, and deeply authentic - every dish made with care and soul. Nikki’s cooking reminded my dad of the food he ate while living in Goa in the ’90s, which says it all. And Lonnie’s warmth and sincerity make the whole experience even more special - they are truly people from the heart. From the chilli masala omelette wrap to fragrant coconut rice, vermicelli noodles, and perfectly spiced mains (salmon, chicken, all sorts of veggie options) and sides—everything was exceptional. Nanima isn’t just a place to eat; it’s a place you remember and I can’t wait to go back!

A Hidden Gem That Feels Like Home – Nanima is Simply Unmissable While visiting me in Brighton, my Dad stumbled across Nanima - and after one incredible meal, he insisted we go back the very next day. I’ve lived here nearly seven years, and I can honestly say this is the best food I’ve had so far in Brighton. The meals are comforting, full of flavour, and clearly made with love. Nikki cooks in the back, creating magic in every dish, while her husband Lonnie welcomes you with warmth and genuine care, talking customers through what’s on that day! Together, they’ve created something truly special - more than just a meal, it feels like being invited into their home. We went back several times that week, and each visit was just as memorable. From the incredible soups to the chilli masala omelette wrap, fragrant coconut rice and vermicelli noodles, perfectly spiced mains and exquisite side dishes, homemade chai and fresh juices - everything was absolutely outstanding! Nanima is a rare find, and I already can’t wait to return.

Homemade food, heartfelt service — Nanima is a true hidden gem! Nanima is one of those special places that you walk into once and instantly feel at home. Every single dish is made from scratch with so much love — you can truly taste the difference. The menu changes daily, so there’s always something new and exciting to try (and everything is incredible). Run by the lovely Nicky and Lonnie, you feel like you're visiting family — except this family makes the best international, wholesome food in town. From their homemade drinks to their zero-waste values, everything here is intentional and inspiring. It’s more than just a place to eat — it’s a full experience, filled with warmth, care, and flavour. Definitely one of Brighton’s best-kept secrets!

We chose Nanima to cater for a significant birthday party because they are local family run business. Lonnie (front of house) and Nicky (chef) were so accommodating and helpful, and the food was delicious. We chose buffet style food to suit our venue and they suggested a menu for us. Everything was made from scratch and they even baked two types of cake! Veggie and vegan and gluten free guests were also catered for. The crowd favourites were the home-made samosas and the Korean chicken rolls which all disappeared very quickly. The cakes were delicious too and went down a treat. Husband says that the carrot cake was probably the nicest he’s tasted, which is high praise indeed. Would highly recommend Nanima both for lunch/dinner and for event catering.

I’m so disappointed by our experience today. The food looked amazing but as soon as we entered the owner looked completely overwhelmed and quite frankly, rude. He ushered us to a table, accommodating for our buggy which was nice although we were cranked with our baby and older daughter on a table for two while they were 4 of us. Be aware that this place is not suitable for big group of people, neither it is kid friendly. The owner then went on and on about their menu making it unnecessarily complicated when in essence, he just wanted to explain to us that the menu is changing all the time. My partner went to the counter to have a look at the different options and was practically shouted at for not staying at the table. He was asked to sit back and wait for his turn basically. Major red flag, we should have left then I think. When it was finally our turn, we were so uncomfortable with the owner’s behaviour. We were so rushed to order after his monologue about his menu - my daughter hadn’t even chose what she wanted that he was already asking if we were done - that we all panicked ordered and ended up super disappointed with our order. So many options looked tasty which is why I’m adding two stars, but the owner’s behaviour and attitude really overshadowed the experience there. Won’t be back

Beautifully cooked food, a warm and lively atmosphere on small shared tables, and superb hospitality from our hosts. The food was delicious, with excellent desserts to finish, and beer and wine available, which made it feel like a fun lock-in at a cafe. We'll definitely be back.

You can tell this is an establishment run with passion, and the staff are so friendly too. We are going to go back for their monthly supper club for sure!

This was our first visit to Nanima but we felt so welcome it was like eating with friends in their home. Lonnie showed us the amazing menu which changes daily. We went soup starters, one Thai and one Japanese. Mains were stuffed pepper and salmon with noodles, rice and salads with a zingy fresh lemonade. We finished with chai and Indian sweets. The food was authentic, full of exciting flavours and prepared with love. The atmosphere was friendly and their approach is sustainable. There is no waste and people bring in containers to fill and takeaway. We'll definitely be back for more!

Story time: I discovered this restaurant as I was walking past it to go to a bakery for a particular pastry I wanted to try as a birthday treat to myself. The bakery didn't have what I wanted, so I decided to walk down to the pier & enjoy the sound of the waves. Then I started to get hungry & remembered I had walked past Nanima. I circled back to the restaurant & was met by a friendly man who explained how there's no set menu & the dishes change daily. That particular day, I decided to go for some coconut rice, chickpea curry, a paneer spinach pastry & a chai latte. With some friendly small talk, the man discovered it was my birthday & proceeded to celebrate me by singing happy birthday & clanging some cymbals haha! Then he kindly gave me the chai latte on the house. How lovely! I got the order to go & didn't bother to get the food heated as I planned to continue walking around a bit before heading to my accommodation. From the time I bought the food to actually eating it was probably around 3-4 hours. I heated everything up in the microwave and OMG! My whole room smelt DIVINE from the food. The beautiful scent wasn't just a fluke because everything tasted equally as divine! How does 4 hours out of fridge food heated in the dodgy glamping pod microwave taste so good?! I happily consumed the bundle of joy on my plate whilst watching a Christmas movie & declared the day a wonderful birthday! - End of story time - If you successfully got to the end of this review, just stop what you're doing & head to Nanima for a delightful meal, hurry, RUN, why make your tastebuds live another second without the taste of Nanima on it?! Go! And enjoy!

The food is good, wide choice. Well cooked and delicious. As well as healthy. The front of house poor. The man has poor customer skills, his negative energy really dominates. He did not make us feel welcome. The door was left open even though we were cold. He required us to huddle into a corner by the door, because it would get ‘very busy’- no one came in. The woman serving did her best, but it didn’t feel like a happy relaxed workplace. Spent almost £50 on 3 people’s lunch and had to leave quickly because we did not feel warm and welcome. Will not be going back.

No elegí particularmente este establecimiento, sin embargo me trajo con su decoración como se ve desde fuera en la acera. No fue hasta que me rodeé de delicias culturales y tradicionales del otro lado del mundo que era una cocina de inspiración asiática. Con una recomendación frente al servicio de la casa, ya que estoy abierto a algunos nuevos gustos del este de la India, Chai era la opción que se ofrece. ¡Y qué regalo de cumpleaños fue! Ambiente relajante y música muy tranquila para tomar su bebida caliente, le recomiendo encarecidamente entrar y mejorar un lugar tan local y único para comer y beber.

I also tried a wonderful vegetarian pastry filled with potato and veg and spices, topped with cheese (I think). It reminded me of masala dosa but better!

All the positive reviews below highlight the delight of this wonderful restaurant. We went there today on the advice of a family member and came out enchanted. Thank you a thousand times to the magic couple who have created this haven of humanity in the hullabaloo that is Brighton. We all ate dishes that were delicious, colourful, fresh, spicy and flavourful. Pick anything, you can't go wrong. Congratulations to the cook who has put her heart and soul into this cuisine. The owners are such a lovely welcoming pair and we were honoured to talk to them after the meal. We thank you and hope you both enjoy a very well-deserved holiday! A special appreciation also to the charming and discreet waitress who saw to our needs.

They don't have a set menu, so every day is a surprise! It's a small and cozy spot with delicious food and awesome service😊

Awesome food. Everything on offer looked delicious and we tried about five dishes in total. Super helpful people work there and they'll talk you through all the options. Great drink options - really enjoyed the juices, will come back for the tea spritz! Will return, highly recommend.

Great Twist of a Menu. There isnt one. You choose from the freshly prepared dishes on offer, which change daily. You can choose to eat in or take out. Friendly servers who are actually the owners. They will talk you through the dishes so you can decide what to have. Very reasonably priced. No need to book

What an absolute find! Took my 12 year old daughter and six of besties to lunch here as part of her birthday celebrations. The food was delicious and the girls all ate incredibly well. Real food that was full of flavour. They all had bubble tea too. Win. I had the best chai I've had in Brighton (and I've lived here for 20 years!) and a gorgeous lunch. We were so well looked after, the whole experience felt relaxed and really warm. I'll be back with my hubby, then my Mum and then my Brighton bestie!

Came tonight as I was using the laundrette next door , I came in and asked fir a menu to see what j wanted fir a drink he asked why would you want a menu if you only want a drink? I said because I don't know what i want to drink. Then as I ordered my 3rd drink he came with the card machine harassing me for payment I said "I haven't finished yet why would I pay" 🤔 he started shouting telling me "incase I'm busy when your leaving" i said "have these other guests who were having food paid yet" he said "yes they have paid" I said "that is a bit strange usually you don't pay until you leave a restaurant I will ask them" he started shouting saying "no no no they are having there dinner they will pay before they leave?" Bare in mind I have been in this place once a week for drinks for about 6 months I Asked for the manager as I felt very uncomfortable and he said "he was on delivery tonight" Anyway never again think i was treated very unfairly for no reason as a lady on my own
