Ok, no more. Service was a little slow, and small portions compared to others who service good food. Not sure I'd bother to rush back.

We had dinner with friends who had visited Brighton. The food was lovely, it can lean towards being very rich but is always nice. Service was slow. We had ordered some starters and while wait staff were clearing table we were told our mains were waiting to be served and did we want them now. We all agreed and were a bit shocked when our main meals were served 20 minutes later. We then had to wait a further 5-7 minutes for rice and naan's as our waitress had forgotten to place the order. We received no apology for this. We didn't want to complain as it was our friends last night in Brighton and we didn't want to ruin the night. We spilt the bill deciding not querying the service charge. As we were about to leave our friend was approached and told we owed 9 pence. Very disappointed with this considering our wait on sides and drinks with no apologies for mix up.

Honestly, one of the most delicious meals out we’ve had in a very long time. Wonderful buzzy atmosphere, really friendly staff, incredible flavours. Our meal was around £45 pp and we had a lot to eat! I think it’s very good value for the exceptional time we had. We can’t wait to come back.

Disappointingly inauthentic. Nipped in for idli sambar. I dunno what it was, but it wasn't sambar. There was a little bit of muringa, a few curry veppu, but the gravy was like a thick tomato sauce (too salty, also) , the veg was like a pumpkin curry and there was absolutely no flavour of tamarind, asfoetida etc. Sooo thick, too - nothing like sambar. Also one idli lol? You know that's not how it's done. Maybe just as well tho because it was solid. Are these guys using Gits instant mix or what? Brighton people wanting to taste real idli sambar had better pop over to Worthing to the dosa cafe. This was horrible stuff. Sorry. I rarely give bad reviews, but it was a shockingly poor rendition of an easy and simple dish.

Lovely food, a little different. Very busy so make sure you book. Would of been 5 stars but so busy, we had to pre order as we were a large group (8 of us) our food arrived before we had even ordered a drink or been given any water. The staff were incredibly busy and although alot of them, there still didn't seem to be enough, they worked non stop so hats off to them. Great food and atmosphere. 2nd time here and definitely worth a return.

Food wasn't bad, but service was just appalling, we were taken to our table and then forgotten after being served drinks and starters, turned around to try and get attention of the staff, but unfortunately had to get up twice to get water etc even had to get peoples attention to get the bill. I'm not impressed. You seriously must train your staff properly in service etiquette.

I first went to this place about 10 years ago and it was buzzing, with a queue outside and wonderful atmosphere and great music, while you wait. The food THEN was exceptional Indian cooking. Now, I am afraid to say, it must have changed hands because basically, its like so many other places and not special anymore. The food repeated on me for about five hours afterwards, which was not a great experience when you have to drive 60 miles to get home...comprende paisano?

No complaints at all about the food (the lamb shoulder balti in particular was excellent), but the service was dreadful. It took over two hours have a one course meal with a couple of kids ice creams after, at lunchtime when it wasn't too busy. Very slow generally, nobody checked if everything was fine after service, had to walk across the restaurant to find someone to produce the bill, which was then wrong. We mildly complained and we're basically told it was our fault because we had kids with us. Really bad. But the lamb balti was memorable for the right reasons.

Another great visit to the CP. We had prebooked but the restaurant, like the rest of the town was very quiet. It was a drab, rainy evening. We shared a starter of poppadoms which were very tasty but thought the price of £7 ish was quite a lot. We shared a bottle of wine and both had our fav dish of chicken biryani. Delicious. As usual I couldn’t eat all mine so took half of it home, never a problem for the staff who are quick to provide takeaway boxes etc. Quite a quick meal as it was so quiet. Could be a very reasonable cost if you skipped the starters etc. Still a very good choice when eating in central Brighton. Staff always amazing here. Highly recommended. Worth going out of your way for.

Mind blowing Indian cuisine at the heart of Brighton. We order the chicken and was excellent. I’m always a bit hesitant to order chicken at restaurants as normally is either undercooked or dry. Not here. That sauce accompanying it was also second to none. Extra points for the Bloody Mary. Just a bit think for my taste (almost like a smoothie) but great taste.

Early stop for dinner and was really pleasantly surprised! My chicken biryani had loads of flavour and meat in, beautifully presented. The onion bhajis are to die for! Absolutely delicious. Only dropped to 4 not 5 stars because of the weird toilet room and limited choice of alcohol free drinks. Overall I’d definitely come back!

Food quality is good but they are stingy on the food portion. Even though the staff service charge is high, they hardly provide good service to you. Bear in mind they don't let plug your phone in any plug and also the receipt I got tonight was unreadable. Weren't bother to take look at it before bringing it to our table. So very faded letters. The atmosphere was nice but you could find better in town with more attractive Indian vibe. So overall staff quality low, food quality high and atmosphere typical.

We opted for the Chef's banquet which was great, a really good selection of different foods to share. I think if they still did Thalis, we might have chosen them, but this seemed to offer a similar variety of dishes and we thought it was a good alternative. It was a LOT of food though, and we sadly had to give up, unable to finish, despite both having healthy appetites. We looked incredulously at the waiter when he brought the pudding menu, there was no way we could have eaten another mouthful.

I've had their house special, 1/2 tandoori chicken xacuti for 18 pounds. First and last time trying xacuti chicken. My mistake was not understanding "1/2" in the dish's name meant it's half of a WHOLE chicken. It's definitely a dish to share, and it would be a good deal for two. Dish was very messy and hard to eat. The chicken breast (a whole breast) didn't get much spices, was very bland. Sauce, mostly a spice blend, wasn't better than more mainstream indian dishes I have tried like butter chicken.

My opinion of chilli pickle has diminished almost as much as their portion sizes. Service was fine but the fOoD, what happened? We paid £60 for two mains, two sides and a starter. The sides were bigger than the mains, and we just bought rice and a supermarket bought naan bread. Nepali Hot wings Achari paneer sizzler Sigri Kesar Jingri Coriander and garlic naan Pilau rice The starter was decent (Nepali Hot wings) but the mains were ridiculous. Maybe this place is run by a team of rabbits, I'm not sure why else I got charged almost £20 for 6 prawns and raw spring onion (Sigri Kesar Jinga). it appeared as if someone had literally walked outside grabbed them, and stuck it on a plate. The Achari paneer sizzler featured 4 slices of paneer over a handful of red onion and was £14. Great place if you're on a diet and have too much money because this was about 200 calories. Would've been quicker for me to throw £60 in the bin than waste it here.

Me and my partner went here for a meal and had quite a disappointing experience. The mains are tiny, the paneer (£14) was 4 cubes on a stick served on a pile of raw onion and lemon. The other dish (£18) was 6 prawns with some whole uncooked spring onions. It was basically starters at mains prices with the bulk of the food being raw onion. In most restaurants we struggle to finish a main, but here we ended up leaving hungry and getting more food on the way home. Very disappointed

First time here and quite impressed with the more modern quirky take in what a decent Indian cuisine restaurant should be in 2024. Good simpler menu, tad light on vegan options but still some choice and what I had was good. Superstar brilliant server (younger male, dark hair sorry cant recall name) who defines what's missing in the art of decent service in certain other places I could name. So basically impressive

Prawns we got only prawn heads with empty shells of a body and lamb balti only had one piece of lamb in it. All sides were half the size of how they usually have been in the past(a month ago when we last visited). Absolutely not worth the money in any way and no way we we ever come back, waste of money.

She said I’ll call my colleague. In fairness the other colleague was friendly and showed us our table. Food was good. But I can say over all service was not great! Again I saw the tall girl staff in the ladies toilet, she was loading the washing machine, small door next passing from the ladies toilet. She’s not friendly, very rude approach I can say.

I had a booking for 5:45 and received a call at 5:49 asking where we were. I apologised and said we’re just coming round the corner now and they responded saying you’re 20 minutes late. I explained my booking was at 5:45 and they said no it was at 5:30. This wasn’t true. They obviously then realised the booking was at 5:45 and said it doesn’t matter. I had booked for 4 people and put in the comments we had a baby with us (who wouldn’t be eating) and we also rang in advance just to ask for high chair. When we arrived we were rudely told that I needed to book for 5 if there was 5 of us. We explained we only need a high chair as the baby isn’t eating. The rudeness continues and they then sat us at a table for 6 with one of the chair spaces as the high chair. There were plenty of people sat on tables of 4 with 5 people, as one person just sat on the end like I would have expected them to do with the high chair. It also wasn’t busy at that time so the reaction seemed completely unnecessary. The whole ‘welcome’ was extremely rude and made us feel unwanted. Our actual waiter was lovely and did a great job making up for this but unfortunately the two earlier colleagues left a bad taste. The naan was lovely but the rest of the food wasn’t great.

It’s a good year since I have been as the offering as got slowly less attractive . And tonight proved me right. First point the staff are great they work hard and try and help the customer. But the food is mundane - starters were good, black lentil dhal was good , lamb kebab was okay, lamb balti was awful. Had it been sold as a carrot , potato and lamb balti it might have been fairer. As a man out of Birmingham, this was not a balti, the lamb was really tough , and it wasn’t even a good curry. To give the CP credit, it was knocked off the bill. The people next to us thought exactly the same. There was a time when the CP was different and worth the money. Now it doesn’t even muster average. Very sad - but not going to bother again

This had been on the list for a long long time. Authenticity = Zero. Colourful expensive decor, location, branding and social media = Huge My Tandoori Prawn Curry (Sigri Kesar Jingri) had sauce so sweet it verged on curry custard, and prawns so overly salted they were impossible to taste. My partner (South Asian heritage) ordered the 'Veg' & Mushroom Biryani - it was the opposite in all the wrong ways; bland, no texture, underwhelming, flaccid. Service was from a too cool for school who was virtually never there. So I can't think of a single good thing to say. Enjoy it Brighton, it looks like you do, but I do hope you taste proper curry some day.

Fabulous Indian food with the best onion bhajis! Lovely, modern restaurant with some different items on the menu.

Overated and overpriced. Presentation is amazing but the taste not so much. Lamb was not fresh and too chewy. Paneer was ok.

Tasty Indian food! Need to book in advance for dinner. We tried the Beef and Bone Marrow, Butter Chicken, and House Dal. Portion sizes could be larger as there weren’t many pieces of chicken in the butter chicken. Every dish was enjoyable. Service was good.

We came in without a reservation as a table of 3 and were promptly seated with an offer of a jug of water for the table. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout the meal, and food came swiftly! We ordered a variety of dishes and each were delicious and paired lovely with our drinks. The restaurant itself is also very cozy, well decorated and smells great from the moment you walk in. Thank You!

BLEW MY MIND. What a nice spin on a typical Indian. Me and my wife got the chefs banquet, which came with sharing platters of all starters and sides for the mains. For our mains we chose mutton biryani and the beef keema and marrow bone. Everything was spot on.

I wish I could be more positive about this place. It's a nice restaurant but I felt the menu was quite limited, the staff not attentive enough. Pro active staff/customer would help a little me thinks. Food was ok but I've had better.

Been looking to go here for some time and have to say we were extremely disappointed with the food. Lost our order initially & had to retake so no big deal if the foods good to follow. 4 little pieces of meat in both main dished, neither tasted good. Naan was burnt, dry & tasteless. When we asked where one of our sides were they said the kitchen is extremely busy, don’t fully book the restaurant if your kitchen can’t accommodate the orders. If you want a good curry this is not the place!

The food is just incredible, and the service was first class. It was a great night and a truly great place to eat. I can only wholeheartedly recommend it.

Chilli Pickle has been favourite since its early days in the Lanes. It is disappointing that prices have increased as rapidly as the quality of the food has declined. Such a shame as this is a great venue and service is good. It’s unlikely that I will return.

Not impressed by my recent visit to this restaurant. Definitely wouldn't recommend it for a big group. Set menu for £38 each. Disgusting. 1 main and a few nibbles for starters. Not worth the money and not very clear. Also we were rushed out for the next booking. We won't be going back

I had an excellent experience at Ashoka. The food was very tasty. They offered a great variety of dishes, there's something for everyone. Trust me, you'll love it there. Also their service is excellent. I'll visit again whenever I come to Brighton. Cheers!

food was good, competative prices. one grumble ordered full tandoori chicken, so could have done with another mint sauce and more salad. I would however use them again.

I have been using this curry house for about 4 years now. The food is consistently good and very reasonably priced. Delivery always arrives hot within the quoted window. I am reluctant to try anywhere else !!

We have used this takeaway a few times now when visiting family in Brighton and it’s always been nice. This weekend was a complete disaster! Being told our food would be ready in an hour by 8.05pm on Saturday night. We arrived to collect it, and waited until 9.20pm. We were told for 45 minutes our order was being packed and wouldn’t be long. At around 9.10pm we decided we’d waited long enough and asked for a refund, we were met with an argumentative staff member who refused to listen to what we had to say but happily answered back. We got home and have to say our order must have been rushed as it wasn’t up to usual standard, luke warm, onion bajis half the size of usual. I left my number and was told management would be in touch and guess what… I’ve heard nothing! Was a rather disappointing Saturday night.

Ordered delivery and accidentally ordered Chicken Tikka Saag rather than Masala. I'm glad I did, it was delicious! Will be ordering again. Good price too.
