Lovely intimate cafe serving home cooked pan-Asian cuisine. Tasty curries and delicious masala chai. Happily recommend.

Great ambiance and the service was really good and friendly. Unfortunately the food was kind of bland, underwhelming and very expensive for what was essentially canteen style food.

A little Kemptown gem 💎 ✨️ colorful and rich with flavors. Service is always super kind, you'll get a warm welcome and a peak view of the sea outside. Go in for a cup of authentic chai and a homade pastry and listen to an awsome soundtrack curated by the owners. And/or hop in for a lovely hot plate full of delicious goodies with a drink 🍸 for lunch or dinner. Come rain, come shine, always a favorite ♥️

Absolute gem. If you’re holidaying in Kemptown this amazing Asian kitchen makes a wonderful stop off for lunch. We were a large family group and the restaurant were so accommodating they prepared the most amazing take away which was wonderfully cooked and bursted with flavour. Thank you Lonnie and Nicky!

We love Nanima and it was our top choice for a celebration meal. Our three courses and drinks were fabulous. We enjoyed a culinary adventure with delicious dishes and drinks from countries that included Korea, Japan, Afghanistan, China and India. A perfect celebration in a comfortable and welcoming restaurant.

Went in randomly to get a coffee flat white and croissant, long story short, flat white delivered in a latte size cup (red flag) and the milk had been boiled to lava level and burn my tongue for 2 days and the croissant while was warm not asked for was floppy as if microwaved 🤣 what!! So I returned the coffee for NO credit or new one as it's easier to never go again worst experience in years, they should stick to the indian buffet as the skill for coffee is just not there

Really exceeded expectations. The passion of the staff is evident, which comes through in the consideration of the menu and the food itself. The owner took the time to go through the menu and process, explaining how his wife cooks from scratch and with love, and you can feel it and taste it. 10/10 would recommend to a friend.

I highly recommend dining at this warm and welcoming family-run restaurant. I visited for the first time today with my family and as we don't live far, we will definitely be returning to try their varied offerings. The dishes we had today were very tasty and made with fresh, wholesome ingredients. There were meat and non-meat options, rice, noodles, soups, dhal, all of which we love. A lovely selection of cakes and pastries too. We're excited to have found this little gem in Brighton.

First time visiting and definitely won’t be my last! The food was absolutely divine and the staff were so welcoming and friendly! The coffee was to die for and the wine paired with my salmon dish was perfect! Homemade dishes that you know have been made by someone with a lot of love and passion in what they do! Great for a light bite or a full meal with a wine! Love how you can choose whether you fancy a tapas version or a full meal! Next time I will be trying the beers too!! Fantastic evening and highly recommend!

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.

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!

Went for the second time today. The idea was breakfast as we were not so hungry, but the food was smelling so good that we had to try one of the main lunch meals. We chose an omelette that was perfectly cooked with the right amount of flavours. The croissant was fresh, and the orange juice, freshly pressed, was perfect as well. I know it sounds weird that someone is rating the orange juice, but try it and you'll get it. The orange cake was a nice surprise. Still warm, fluffy with the right amount of chocolate, a perfect little treat with coffee. The atmosphere is amazing. If you're looking for a calm place to lunch, that's it. Disability friendly? Yes, ground floor, no steps and comfortable seats. I suppose it can accommodate a wheelchair if needed as ot have space for that. Level of sound noise could be a thing if too crowded, otherwise it's noise safe. Dog friendly? Yes! There are seats outside and seats inside. Plus: they have bubble tea (take away as well). And it's very good.

A home from home cafe-style atmosphere that instantly relaxes, and a daily changing menu, that all 4 of us, kids included, found a delicious dinner from. Fabulous.

We were on our way home from the hospital and wanted a healthy dinner to bring back. Nanima was an excellent choice. Fresh food, reasonably priced and with generous portions. Most importantly, the meals seem like they were made with a lot of care (egg and potato curry was a delicious discovery!). It was also a pleasure chatting to the two lovely owners as well. And it's one of the few places in East Sussex that serves an actual homemade lemonade. We will be back! :)

We discovered Nanima in March and loved it. The food and drink are exciting, authentic, super fresh and delicious. There is no set menu so you try something new each time - a great idea! The staff are welcoming and passionate about food. The place has a relaxed vibe and you can see all the customers are having a good time. This time we took visiting friends and began with Singaporean Laksa. It came with silken tofu, chicken or seafood. And we followed it up with up with spiced chai and a selection of cakes. A perfect evening! Thanks Lonnie and the team.

1 tbsp of curry.. (with plain rice, lettuce and vegetables) £9.50 with an NHS discount. I find it fascinating that a place that is decorated the way it is and sells expensive stuff feels the need to be that unbelievably stingy. I am just imagining the lady who served me very carefully only putting 1 tbsp of curry into my lunch box, under strict instructions, or possibly out of fear of being punished for the minimal margins lost for providing a substantial meal. I am angry, but also laughing at just how pathetic this is 🤣

We visited Nanima Asian Kitchen for the first time on Friday and we will definitely be going back. There was a selection of non veggie and veggie options and we both went with Malaysian chicken curry with dhal and coconut rice/noodles. It was full of flavour, beautifully cooked and we had home made samosas on the side. To drink we had Singha beer and a home made apple and cinnamon juice. It’s a family run place and we were made to feel very welcome.

We went to Nanima Asian kitchen cafe today and must say the food is delicious and they are lovely. However, the portion size and price do not match. We tend to eat modest portions but even for us a main for £15-16 in a tiny bowl (which was 80%rice and 20% potato and chickpeas) is insufficient and unfair - especially when you can only eat out rarely! Sadly won't go back even if we liked the taste of the food. Thanks. Seda

They don't shut early, so you can go after work and buy food (if still available as it usually sells out fast). They have an amazing selection of pastries too.

Wow!What a wonderful place.I’d been recommended to try Nanima by so many people and finally did so today. From the moment we entered we were made to feel welcome. The place was fairly busy but in a vibey not stressful way.The guy at the counter, presumably the husband in what is a genuinely family run restaurant, patiently talked us through all the day’s dishes. Took us a while to decide! We’re both vegetarian and the choices all looked delicious. The food came quickly, as well the homemade lemonade and peach iced tea!! Everything was absolutely fantastic. Full of flavour, fresh and healthy. And generous portions, at very reasonable prices. The place is lovely, full of plants and great music. It was just such a rare pleasure to be hosted as guests and not treated as simply paying customers to never see again. We will definitely be regulars now.

The man behind the counter is scary. The reply to low reviews so ludicrously defensive and I'm unsuprised after my encounter. God knows what this will bring down on my head. We were reading the menu Behind the counter when we came in.The man behind the counter was explaining the menu to people in front of us, then turned to us and said beligerantly " I will be with you in a moment" thinking we were looking at him rather than the menu. This man is a liability to the place. I think he's the owner. Food was mainly undercooked veg. Never have I been scared to go into a Cafe, having lived here for forty years but I would never go in there again.

Forget the boring beige curries – Nanima is a burst of flavor that punches you in the hugest and best way. This tiny corner café rocks a Southeast Asian vibe and great ambiance compolete with some cracking tunes I inhaled the salmon – melt-in-your-mouth meat in a fiery, creamy sauce that had me mopping up every drop. Even the veggie stuff's a party with brilliant and nuanced flavours. The light and yet hearty Japanese mushroom soup is the best thing to energise you on a cold day, warming you up without feeling groggy. And the best bit? The Nanima crew. They're all smiles jokes, treating you like family. So ditch the stuffy joints and dive into Nanima. It's Brighton's hidden gem, waiting to warm your belly and your soul. P.S. Don't miss the mango lassi – it's sunshine in a glass!

Nanima is a true neighbourhood gem that people need to make their way to no matter where they live. Their aim seems to be to make you feel right at home - whether it's through their hearty food offerings, the inviting interiors or the welcoming friendly team - Nanima have got it sussed. It's a cafe-come-restaurant so caters for most hungry moments...or they do a mean coffee if that's what you need. Their food is eclectic from currys, soups, salads to sticky Korean buns and more - the menu changes on a regular basis, but you're guided through the choices - and their portions are v v generous! I had a Chinese chicken soup that warmed my cockles, followed by their show stopping Singapore Laksa - super super warming, fresh, hearty and tasty. The cakes were irresistible too - and according to legend you can't share their delicious warm oozy chocolate orange cake without coming to fisticuffs...me and my husband tested the theory and I won! Needless to say I recommmend you get yourself to Nanima if you want excellent, interesting, fresh and nourishing food for a really reasonable price. Yum.

Good comfort Asian food and definitely worth its value! Always watch out for their specials (especially their salmon dishes) and laksa’s! Staff and owners are really welcoming and are happy to help if you are stuck with the menu! Worth visiting on lunch breaks or dinners! 💖

I've often walked past & thought I must pop in there. Well last night I did and we weren't disappointed. Greeted by the very hospitable Lonnie we were immediately made to feel at home. Great food on offer and a couple of us were lucky enough to get the Laksa (thoroughly recommended, though normally sold out by 7 so get there early) Huge choice of desserts and cakes, if you're too full for cake then I really recommend taking a slice or two home (the carrot cake is divine) we also took a box of Little Moons home with us. My recommendation - if you're passing don't just walk by this lovely place, pop in for a coffee and why not grab something to take home for dinner later. Lonnie and Nicky are superb hosts and the place is warm and friendly. We will be back

What a find! We were greeted by the owner who advised us of the amazing food on offer cooked by his wife. Very friendly, food was impeccable and the attention to detail to service could not be faulted. Great atmosphere, and music, we felt very welcomed here and will definitely be back!

I stumbled upon this gem of an Asian restaurant/cafe, and it's a haven for food enthusiasts of all preferences. The daily-made dishes are a testament to their commitment to freshness and quality. For meat lovers, the menu offers a tantalizing selection that's sure to satisfy carnivorous cravings. Equally impressive is the thoughtfully curated range of vegetarian and vegan options, showcasing a dedication to inclusivity. The harmonious blend of flavors and the inviting atmosphere make this spot a culinary delight for everyone.

I had the best most culinary satisfying meal that I have had for a very very long time. Nanima Asian Cafe has a warm calm atmosphere and Nicky ( who cooks) and her husband were delightfully hospitable without being invasive. Nicky even made a special chilli paste for me as I like spicy .. I am mesmerised by Nicky’s cooking. The decor, the ambience, the cool background music and the food!! I’ll be back!

Interesting food, but no menu. Apparently it's different food each day so menu not appropriate. We found the pricing very confusing and unpleasantly surprised when time came to pay.

Amazing food and reception. Very friendly staff as well. The Singaporean chicken curry they served today was amazing. If you pop by Kemptown, this little cafe is a must.

Been to Kukis a few times now and it has never disappointed! The chef was very helpful in recommending dishes and clearly knows what he's doing!! Great prices and good beer served on tap. All round wicked experience every time I go! 5/5

Whilst wanting to keep this superb service top secret, I also want them to succeed. You book via WhatsApp a time slot and they send you a menu to select from. Monthly specials are worth it. This is delivery only, placed lovingly in tiffin tins, which are collected the next morning. Slots go quickly, so get in there; you won’t regret it.
