What a fab little Thai restaurant! Nice buzz on a rainy Thursday around 6:30 pm. Good selection of starters, mains and sides for vegans. Loved the chilli coconut bites and spicy drunken noodles. My friend also rated the ginger curry highly. Excellent friendly service & top quality food. High on my list of favourite places. Also good value for money!

Despite the fact we visited on a Friday night, we were seated very quickly by a lovely waitress who provided service with a smile throughout the evening :) The starters and mains were delicious - especially the massaman curry and the portion sizes were just right. I will definitely return to Chilli again in the future!

Ridiculous waiting time between starters and main even for a busy Friday night because they are more focused in take away and deliveries than sitting customers. Owner was very rude and arrogant and made us feel very uncomfortably . Still charged £9.75 service charge for a terrible experience.

Really tasty, fresh and authentic Thai food. We loved every dish. The platters are a particular highlight as you can try three different small dishes. Service was very friendly and they were great with allergy help and advice. It was our first visit but we love Thai food and will definitely be back.

Delicious and authentic Thai food. Visited on a Monday and the restaurant was very busy . The food was super fresh, delicious & full of flavour. The Specials were indeed delicious and although we had to wait a while it was so worthwhile waiting for. Spicy Pork belly noodles are very Spicy & the Satay sauce is a class if it’s own…

Visited here last night and had a really lovely meal. The staff were welcoming and friendly from the offset and throughout the time we were there, we ordered the Coco Passion cocktail and the passion fruit gin which were both really good (would definitely recommend). The restaurant is decorated really nicely and it gives a warm environment whilst also being modern and trendy. The waitress was able to give us recommendations on items on the menu which she thought were good which is always a good sign. They also have a specials board which contains extra menu options. Once we ordered the food came really quickly as the restaurant wasn’t too busy as it was early. We both ordered spring rolls vegetable and duck and they were incredible, massive portions and tasted incredible. I ordered the country chicken with rice which was a massive portion enough for two for sure and tasted really good. You could tell the restaurant was family run which was a really nice touch which they also demonstrate on the website. It definitely came across that they run the restaurant as their passion rather than just for profit. Would definitely recommend to others! You can get a taxi from the seafront which takes 5-10 minutes worth the trip.

We ate here on a Saturday night in October. We had prebooked. The restaurant was very busy and there was a great atmosphere. We had prawn crackers, starters, mains and drinks. We were surprised to have to pay for the two very small bowls of prawn crackers and thought these should have been complimentary. We had wine, beers and a couple of shorts with mixers. The chicken satay starter was delicious as was the duck pancake roll. Very large portions, could have shared had we known. I had chicken massaman curry with coconut rice for main which was really good. My husband had the pork belly which he enjoyed too. Again very large portions, we definitely could have shared rice, noodles etc None of our group finished their meals and some of us ended up bringing food home with us. My sister had a small issue with her main which was soon rectified and she was not charged for. We very much enjoyed the food, the staff were very friendly, good fun and helpful. Found some aspects of the menu very expensive- £4 for a small portion of prawn crackers, £4 for a coke or a Diet Coke mixer. Found it expensive overall. Would go back and order far less food.

I have to say service spot on and I found out why before the end of the evening. The food was exquisite. Chicken Satay was dreamy the chicken still moist and the satay sauce had a bit of warmth. Would like to buy a bucket of that sauce. Five skewers of chicken which as I stated was dreamy. Then I had drunken noodles with chicken for the main course the heat level went up a couple of notches but was still really enjoyable there was pineapple chunks in the noodles which heightened the mix of flavours. We were chatting away whilst finishing our food some had finished and I thought it was unusual practice to clear away plates whilst others were still eating. Became clear when the man not wearing a waiting apron leaned across me still eating nearly got the opened water bottle up his sleeve said he needed the table in 5 mins Now I an sure when table was booked it was explained. I would suggest next time he asks us how our meal was and then he could say that the next dinner guests had arrived and could we start leaving the table. Waiter service 10/10 food delivery 10/10 food quality 10/10 food quantity10/10 management attitude needs work for a perfect score. My advice get there on time and enjoy the food. Be prepared to be asked to leave once your time is up. Great place to eat but not a place to chill. The stopwatch is on

Great restaurant and lovely food, very spicy so be careful of the curry, I love heat but this red curry was to my limit. Prawns were to die for, satay was real good as well, beer was expensive but part of the meal experience. In all probability the best Thai In Brighton. £160 for 4 inc 4 beers and 2 cocktails…

Food was good but at end of meal on asking for bill was given it with things added meaning it was 2 & times my real bill. They corrected it before I paid but they had known what I had so do not think a mistake. So if you go food nice but check your bill carefully before paying.

Fancied Thai food on an evening out to celebrate a new job offer, we hadn’t booked but were seen to a table quickly and warmly greeted as soon as we entered. Our server was friendly, informative and funny. The atmosphere was relaxing and inviting, making a nice evening out even better. Our food was sensational and came very quickly, also had a lovely selection of cocktails. I don’t normally write reviews but felt this experience was so lovely I need to commend you!

I have eaten at Chilli many times for both lunch and dinner, over the years, with family, friends, & for date nights with my wife, and it has always been excellent, whatever the occasion. The food is very genuine Thai & reminds me of the great food I had over there many years ago. The staff and owners are lovely, and as I have a habit of overordering in my enthusiasm, they sometimes suggest that I reign it in, which I think is a good sign in a restaurant, as it's not just all about the money. The atmosphere is usually very lively, as everyone knows that it's a great place to eat, and I would say very good value too! Don't miss the sweetcorn and sweet potato fritters, they are incredibly light, fluffy and delicious, but in fairness their whole menu is sublime.

The food was fabulous, including lots of delicious vegan options for two vegans in our party. I had seafood options which were also both generous and beautifully prepared. The prices are also very good for Brighton and Hove. We’ll be going back as soon as we can.

Hove I always feel gives its often noisy neighbour Brighton a close run for its quality of restaurants and Chilli is a prime example.Being a lone diner can sometimes be a little difficult but the staff here at Chili are always very friendly & welcoming.The atmosphere and quality of Thai cuisine is excellent.I particularly recommend The Floating Market Sea Bass dish with its blend of lime and chilli giving it a taste that delights the palate.The staff are all very attentive but from a personal viewpoint I would like to thank Cin for being so helpful and always having a smile however busy.My only very small reservation is that the Apple Cider on the drinks menu is not the best however it's a minor issue after all Cider and Thai food was never designed to complement each other.So whatever the occasion I do suggest a visit to Chilli I'm sure you won't be disappointed.

Terrible. Worst Thai food I’ve ever had. Went pre-lockdown and had a nice meal - what happened!? Must have changed chefs because this wasn’t a minor difference. Food was honestly awful. No flavour, sloppy, cold - meat and squid rubbery, simple dishes like som tum not even made right. I hate to leave a bad review but you need to get pulled up on serving food that bad.

Tuesday 28/7/20 I decided to pay a visit at lunchtime with a friend to one of my favorite restaurants in Hove. I think this place is not acclaimed as it should be, as everything in it, excels beyond words. The staff is always attentive and friendly, yet extremely professional and helpful. The food is exquisite, very flavoursome and light. I appreciated the fact that they kept all the layout of the tables as it used to be before covid, and now they put the sign “reserved” between a table and another for social distancing. I felt very safe eating out at this place. A must for both lunch and dinner.

Have been going to this restaurant for a while and during lockdown been eating their takeaway. The food is quite simply sublime, if you go in person the staff are friendly, helpful and quick and service is always with a smile. For takeaway it’s again quick and the food has always arrived hot and fresh.The duck spring rolls are the best thing ever as is the salt n pepper squid. I would say it’s impossible to have a bad dish.We often order pad thai and the owner always gives me extra peanuts, which is nice.Overall whether eating in or having takeaway, if you want good Thai food for a good price come here!

This restaurant is amazing. You can’t fault it, friendly service and the food is amazing. Portion size is great and it’s always so delicious! The menu has such variety all at a good price and we love the way they’ve named there dishes. We’ve been 3 times now, once for our anniversary and then my boyfriends birthday so when we were thinking of a place to go for my mums birthday it was a no brainer. The owner (so sorry but I can’t remember his name) noticed we had birthday cards on the table and gave us 2 portions of prawn crackers on the house. We were so surprised and couldn’t believe the kind gesture. All the staff are so attentive and lovely. Thank you so much for another gorgeous meal, considering all the restaurants in Hove this is definitely our favourite! See you again soon.

Had a couple of takeaways and a sit in meal here and it just gets worse. Really poor food - awful rice, bland flavours, poor meat (prawn) ratio in curry and the crispy things are never crispy and usually undercooked with little inside. And its expensive... Avoid and go to the Thai a few doors down which is amazing.

The girlfriend and I love this restaurant. We have lived in hove and been visiting here for the last three years. For us, it surpasses the more expensive and smaller dishes of giggling squid and is tastier and more authentic than lemongrass. Don’t be fooled by the days it is less busy. The food is always excellent and service fantastic.

I’ve been coming here on a regular basis for the past 2 years and everything about it is great. We’ve eaten a range of things on the menu, but always try and opt for the specials if we can. The seafood is exceptional and they do amazing curries. Service is great too and they always manage to find you a table. It’s become a joke now that we can’t keep returning as we never go anywhere else, but it’s hard as every time we eat we come away very happy with very full bellies. Favourites are the squid, Samui Smile, Emperor prawns and cafe chilli curry. And it’s really reasonably priced too! AMAZING!!

We live around the corner and collected a take away order from here. I’ve had the Pad Thai a few times which I remember being fine, but the entire takeout we had was horrible. The golden crab was very greasy. The drunken noodles which were particularly bad. It’s very rare that we don’t finish food, but it tasted so bad we had to chuck a lot of it away! Don’t know if it was an off day or something, but it’s safe to say we won’t be going back to find out.

I have been to a few Thai restaurants round Brighton and Hove, and love tom yum soup but if you order here be careful half the soup will be filled with lemon grass. I did tell the manager about this in hindsight, did like to take the criticism should have returned the soup and got it discounted off the bill. The main was ok nothing special, service mediocre, slow to bring bill probably because we complained. Not an enjoyable experience wont be going again!

The 'heavily' see bass was in fact 'hellish' over cooked mush. ~ No customer good will here, they would only take half of it of the bill because we'd ate some of it, disgraceful way to treat customers.

Service,very very slow. Starters were ok, the main course food was over cooked and poor. Will not be revising any time soon.

We arrived and we were surprised at the efficiency of the staff to be seated, however this was the most efficient part of the evening. We arrived at 7.30 and were served our starters at 845 which were delicious I would recommend the squid and the soups. We waited until 10.00 for our mains which wee very disappointing,? I have eaten at many Thai/Aidan/oriental eateries but the main courses were disappointing. I had the house speciality which had prawns in the dish, I had 4 ! The market fish which does say crispy definitely came out crispy and with little white meat to pick at. I would only go here again if it was for a casual lunch NOT an evening meal.

Really liked this place. Thought the curries tasted great. The emperor prawn was also very flavorsome. I think they can improve the atmosphere a little by making the lights darker in the evening and putting candles on the tables and fairly lights around the walls like they do in most of the bars in Thailand. It was a good evening with nice staff.

Went in for my girlfriends birthday meal last week. Very friendly laid back atmosphere, we went just as it reopened at six so it was quiet although by the time we left it was packed.

Nice staff, very friendly. Food is nice but it's nothing special to be honest. Still, it can be nice for an evening with friends.

My partner and I ordered take away from here last night, we were really looking forward to it, as it came highly recommended, and always looked lovely when we walked past.

We had planned to go to another restaurant for lunch, however despite booking it was closed so we looked for an alternative. We saw some good reports for here so thought we should give it a try. What an excellent move that was, we were warmly greeted and asked if we could sit outside (They have a new garden area). The food and service were excellent.

My husband and I went back to the Cafe Chilli on 15.6.18 as we wanted to go somewhere we would guarantee a good meal. We have never been disapointed with their food, service and friendly atmosphere. We have always had great tasting meals and we are usually too full for dessert, but I have to have one anyway as they are delicious, particulalry the rice dessert. I had the Chicken Massaman and my husband had the Crying Tiger and both tasted delicious. The Thai sausage starter is also very tasty. We will definately be going again.

I ordered a takeaway from Cafe Chilli this evening and was totally disappointed it was cold, over and undercooked and such small portions it was terribly bad value for money.The Thai crackers were stale and bendy, the soft shell crab was cold and soggy, the crispy squid was so crispy you couldn't get your teeth through it and only 3 really small pieces for £5.95 a complete rip off.The holy basil chicken was luke warm with no veg no basil and 4 large lumps of red chilli and an insipid weak sauce.Total £24.00 a complete rip off never again. Now need to order another takeaway for dinner.... Something edible for one person that doesn't go in the bin.Really disappointed.

Amazing food with a great choice on the menu. My girlfriend has visited Thailand and she was very impressed by the authenticity of what was on offer as well as our meal. Staff were very friendly and priced reasonably well.

We get takeaway from here whenever we fancy Thai food. It's always very good, and portion sizes are better than a lot of other Thai restaurants. Staff are always friendly and helpful.

Esta operación en el Charles Napier ofrece una excelente elección de lo que creo que es una relación calidad-precio tailandesa. Tuvimos la fuente para compartir como aperitivo, tuve un curry verde, mi amigo tenía rollitos de primavera. Estábamos al final de una tarde ocupada, así que fue un poco lento y se olvidó 1 orden. Sucede, pero no quita la buena comida. Los vinos en el bar tienen un precio razonable.
