Food was super delicious, highly recommend the muscles to start, huge portion for the price! We both had the haddock and it was outstanding, including the chips which were amazing. Aimee was super attentive and made sure everything was great!

The last time I was in Brighton, several years ago, I had a meal at The Seahorse which was OK, but I wasn't made to feel very welcome as a solo diner. So this time, I wasn't planning to consider it. However, it was a beautiful, sunny day and walking past I saw people on the upper terrace and just thought it looked like the perfect place for lunch. I am so glad I gave it another chance. I was given the menus and told to choose where I wanted to sit, so I picked a perfect spot, overlooking the beach. From then on, everything was perfect - the food (chicken, leeks and wild mushrooms, tender stem broccoli and fries, followed by black forest trifle) was wonderful. Perfectly cooked, fresh and tasty and very well presented. Wine choices were excellent. I was not once made to feel unwelcome, or even rushed. The service was very friendly and attentive. It is not a cheap place, but then you do have a fantastic location, top quality food and wine and great service. And everything is so much more expensive now. You get what you pay for, and I think it is worth it. I will most certainly look to come here again next time I'm in Brighton.

Hard to give stars for atmosphere when there was only 8 people in restaurant when we arrived, was only one other couple left, by the time our food arrived, the food was Ok, not amazing, and was quite expensive for what it was, I'm sure in the height of summer the place is very lively and full. Compliments to the 2 waitresses who were very prompt and attentive, and to be fair there service saved this place getting alot lower rating.

Lovely restaurant situated on Brighton seafront. Service was excellent, especially the handsome Aussie gent who was very friendly and gave great recommendations. All our food was cooked to perfection - I had the sea bass with mussels and Thai green sauce which was absolutely delicious. Only criticism of the food was that it was served a bit lukewarm. I would like to offer some constructive criticism as I really enjoyed my meal here but one thing really let it down. The restaurant needs a really good clean. There was thick dust and cobwebs behind the blinds and around the lampshades. The tables wasn’t very clean and one of the water glasses had lipstick on, and the glass bottles the water was served in were also unclean. I hope this can be addressed as it was a bit off putting (see photo, which was right next to where I was eating), but otherwise I loved my meal here.

Over priced and small portions. I ordered the mussels as a starter which were nice except unfortunately gritty…. My main was the cod with 4 mussels and vegetables. The cod was a very small and thin pathetic piece for the price, it didn’t taste fresh either and was very disappointing. I had to order a portion of chips which were lovely but should really come with the fish and expensive portion at £4.99 The best part of the meal was the cheese board but again quite small. The venue is nice , the staff were pleasant. The manager was told by the waitress about our complaint but instead of coming over to speak to us we saw him laughing so that says it all…….. We shall not be returning!!

We've eaten at the Seahorse a few times and had a 40th birthday there so my wife and I decided to have our wedding lunch and party there. The day was first class and Bex and her team were so helpful in helping us arrange everything. They are also very accommodating and nothing was too much trouble for them. If anyone is reading this then pay them a visit, great restaurant, great location and lovely staff. Thank you again for everything!

As a local we have eaten here many times over the years, the location/sea view is unbeatable in Brighton. The current offering is the best it has been BUT I am not sure why you ask if it is a special occasion on the booking if you don’t intend to offer anything special when told it is a birthday celebration. Also it would be nice if there was a wine available costing below £28 As per a previous reviewer I found the main course mussels portion too small. Initially I was given about 10. When I complained I was given a few more so about 16 in total . I agree this would be more acceptable If offered with fries instead of bread. The sauce with the mussels was excellent as was the seafood sharer we enjoyed for our starter.

I had my son’s Wedding Reception at the Seahorse. The Staff and the Service was excellent, the food was Delicious. The views were amazing looking over the sea such a beautiful setting. Bex is so professional and organised the venue to perfection. The Wedding Party and the Guests were so impressed when they saw Ray (The Manager) dressed in the Kilt as the venue was semi based on a Scottish Theme with a Scottish Piper playing the Pipes. Thank you Ray you are a Top Notch’ guy you look great in the Kilt 🏴. Also a huge thank you and all the staff for such a wonderful day/evening. I will definitely recommend the Seahorse for a Wedding Reception. Everyone enjoyed themselves.

My brother and sister in law just had their wedding reception at the Seahorse and it was fantastic. The venue was light and fresh and had excellent views of the sea and beaches. The facilities were clean and excellent with a lovely bar. The staff were brilliant and very friendly. I want to give a special thanks to Ray who was first class. He really went out his way to help us and is such a lovely, friendly guy. Ray and all the staff were perfect. The food was very nice and everyone had something they liked. The buffet was lovely too. The sound equipment was very good too and the volume was perfect for the dancing. The wedding was a complete success and we are very grateful to the Seahorse for all their efforts and abilities.

Eines der schicken Lokale an der Seafront, das zwar gute Küche anbietet, aber etwas überteuert ist. Das Restaurant liegt direkt an der Seafront und man hat aus den Panoramafenstern (oder von den Plätzen auf der Terrasse) einen tollen Blick auf das Meer und den Strand. Wie viele andere Restaurants ist es vor allem auf Touristen ausgerichtet. Der Service ist nett, aber auch etwas gelangweilt. Die Drinks, z.B. mein Hugo, sind gut gemixt. Es gibt auch eine Happy Hour dafür. Die Dinner-Karte ist eher klein und hat einen Schwerpunkt auf Seafood. Die bereitet die Küche sehr lecker zu. Meine gebratene Brachse war kross auf der Hautseite, genau richtig im Gargrad und gut gewürzt. Leider lässt sich das Restaurant die Lage bezahlen, denn die Preise sind etwas hoch.

Thank you to all of the amazing team at The Seahorse for such a fantastic and unforgettable wedding! First of all, the entire wedding planning experience was made so easy with Bex’s help. We were really happy with the straightforward process, fair and good value pricing, and the whole service provided. Secondly, the day was incredible! The place looked stunning and everything was set up perfectly. We have received so many compliments on how good the food was! The service was very friendly, helpful, professional and efficient. The entire team seemed to make a huge effort to look after us all and make sure the day went smoothly - we couldn’t have asked for more! We would recommend The Seahorse for an amazing wedding venue to anyone who wants to know 😊 Thank you again and please pass on our thanks and appreciation to all of the team who contributed to our very special day.

Held my wedding reception at the Seahorse on 31st July. I cannot speak highly enough about what a wonderful experience it was. The staff were accommodating, flexible, professional and efficient. The quality of the food was extremely high and very tasty. I would have no hesitation in recommending this venue. We were able to work with Bex to plan the event beforehand, prepare the venue the day before and post event the staff were extremely careful and respectful with the storage of the flowers and some of the gifts to be picked up after the event. The whole experience was superb.

The restaurant has great potential: a beautiful view and the food was good. However, the staff don’t match the food. Unclean toilets (no toilet paper, no soap and bloody tampons hanging out of the bin), reused mayo pots from previous customers (dried mayo on the rim of the pot) and dirty tabletops where you have to ask 4x to get it wiped… in the future we probably will take our money to Rockwater: same view but superb customer service. It’s just not nice to eat out at such an unclean venue. Also, had to go walk up to the tills as no one noticed we had finished our meal, not to mention ask if we enjoyed our meal ( half of the restaurant was empty). When I voiced my concerns at the tills, I was told this is to be expected on busy days.

I give it two stars because the service was really good and the starff was really attentive. But I ordered the oyster mushrooms with zaatar and what a joke. £16.50 for four half mushrooms with some onions and a handful of chickpeas, that hadn't even seen the zaatar from far. Add a beer and the service charge, £25. Plus the sandwichI had to buy from a supermarket straight away after leaving. Fair enough that you pay a lot for the location but the fish&chips and the burgers my friends ate were normal portions not pisstake sizes.

Delicious seafood platter, great chips and roasted new potatoes and vegetables. Couldn't fault the food. Location is stunning - sitting outside by the sea in the evening was fabulous. The service was a disappointment though. The staff were friendly and lovely but we wondered if they were short staffed. We didn't mind generally quite slow service as we were bit jn a hurry, but we had to ask 3 times for a bottle of water and the red wine we ordered to have with our cheese came after we had eaten it. With a few more staff on duty it would have been perfect.

I’ve been here a couple of times in the summer for evening drinks on the upstairs terrace. It’s a great location for soaking up the seafront evening atmosphere with a cold cocktail or beer in your hand. If you’re lucky there might even be a good busker nearby supplying some music. For me, the restaurant/bar terrace itself lacks atmosphere, which is good if you like the seafront in general but not so good if you want a bar experience. The balcony railings are almost solid and obscure your view of the sea when you are sitting down (unless you have some kind of giraffe neck I guess). If you are coming just for drinks and are sat on the upstairs terrace, be prepared to wait quite a while to be served. They don’t allow you to order at the bar but they may be short staffed. I’ve seen people give up and leave, so only come here if you’re not in a hurry. Amazing location - I can see why it’s often booked out for wedding parties.

We had our wedding at The Seahorse last weekend and what a day it was. From the moment I made contact with Bex (the bookings manager) the whole process was a dream. From start to finish we were supported and communicated with efficiently. It was honestly like having a wedding planner. Bex especially went absolutely above and beyond, answering the multitude of questions I threw her way with grace and knowledge , kept me in the loop always, partook in multiple meetings with us and suppliers, recommended ideas and so much more. I can’t put into words how helpful she was and how it made our whole experience so seamless. We couldn’t have done it without Bex. I was never made to feel too much and she did all of this with such enthusiasm and patience. She is a true super hero and such an incredible person. On the actual day everything ran completely to plan and I felt everyone was on board. The food was amazing, the service impeccable and our guests were ranting and raving about it too. The seahorse itself is such a beautiful venue, a gorgeous view, affordable, completely customisable and full of brighton charm. We hired the bottom floor which also gave us access to both downstairs outdoor terraces as well. The bottom level was ample room for our party of 120 guests. I actually can’t thank The Seahorse enough. If you are thinking about getting married here, without a doubt absolutely do it. Our wedding day was perfect and The staff at The Seahorse have so much to do with this. Absolutely 10\10 in all areas, I wouldn’t change a thing. Thank you a million times over. Love Alex and Jess x

I tried to inform her that we were paying customers which she disregarded and wouldn’t let me get a word in edge way and made us feel unwelcome and embarrassed. Disappointed.

Was a lovely evening at Seahorse Restaurant on Brighton Beach. The view is stunning and the food and drinks were excellent. Service was a little slow but very nice waiting staff.The Seahorse has been recently renovated and booths added. It is nicely done except for the plastic plants! To be fair they look good from a distance but real plants would have renovated this space to another level. No excuse as there is lots of light and heat in there… would not be tricky to keep real plants thriving in what essentially a greenhouse! Saying that the blinds do keep it from getting too stifling:)

We sat outside in the sun for some drinks. My partner went in to order, only to be told to order upstairs as they were closing SOON downstairs but not right at that moment. He went upstairs only to be told to order downstairs, after he explained to the three members of staff that he'd been told to order upstairs, they said that they had been busy and we're only just catching up. There was no offer to take our order so we left. This has not been the first time that we've had terrible or no service at The Seahorse. They are literally turning away paying customers seemingly because they can't be bothered to serve people.

Enjoyed a lovely evening meal with the family at The seahorse. The staff were polite and attentive, making us feel welcomed throughout our visit. The seating arrangement was perfect, offering a view facing the sea, which added a special touch to our dining experience, even though it was dark and there was no lighting outside. However, the food did not meet our expectations. Despite the portion sizes being satisfactory, all the dishes lacked flavor, which was surprising and disappointing, especially considering previous reviews from other customers had highlighted this issue. It seems this has not been resolved yet. While the ambiance and service were commendable, the blandness of the food was a letdown. We hope to see improvements in this area in the future.

A lovely atmosphere & nothing is too much trouble. We were having a short break in Brighton & had visited this venue over 2 years ago. They had changed hands but it was so much better . Excellent value for money lunch deal. We came back for our last evening meal. My husband hadn’t been well so didn’t want sauces or butter on anything. They accommodated his requests with no problem. Excellent food & even better service

We live close to The Seahorse and were keen to try it following it's renovation. It is certainly a welcome addition to the beachfront given the rather tired looking Brighton Beach Club that preceded it. We had a lovely, albeit quiet evening. Quiet in the sense that it was torrential outside and we were understandably one of few diners willing to brave the tempest. It didn't dampen our experience however and the warm interior was an inviting prospect after we fought vertical rain to get there. The Deco building has been elegantly and freshly refurbished and a crisp Prosecco quickly banished thoughts of the Spring downpour. The friendly staff were on the right side of attentive if not a little green. A more experienced maitre d with a little more joie de vivre might have not gone amiss but it wasn't the end of the world. We had multiple small plates and a bottle of Picpoul which complimented well. In fact the complexity of flavours in our food was a nice surprise with the Pork Loin and Beetroot Tartare the highlights. Dessert was pleasing if not lacking in sophistication somewhat. Some more richness in the Lemon Blondie or maybe even a curved ball or two on the pudding menu generally would really elevate The Seahorse to where it deserves to be. That said, the prices were reminiscent of 2016 which was a big win! indeed, on a fine day and given the size of the venue it will be a truly smashing place for a meal, wine or even just cocktails in the warm weather. We really hope it stays!

The food, service, wine and ambience were all brilliant. The complementary glass of bubbly was a lovely touch. Would definitely recommend & will be going back. 🥂🎓

There were really bad bits to this experience. Some of it was ok but not outstanding. Firstly there weren't enough waiting staff. They did their best, but it meant very slow service, which clearly wasn't their fault. The starter of prawns was ok but nothing special. The beef short rib was better but not overwhelming. It was ok. The pudding had a very grand name but was basically smashed biscuits in layers with whipped cream. That was it. For a mid range restaurant, it was really disappointing. One of the toilets was blocked, which was unpleasant. Seahorse needs to sort a few things out. Maybe it was just a bad day.

A great lunch experience with unrivalled views. Staff were great, we had two young children with us and we felt very well looked after.

THE BEST FISH AND CHIPS I'VE HAD IN A LONG TIME... The food was absolutely amazing, there were 9 of us and every dish was delicious. Lacking atmosphere because it was so quiet, but that is a crying shame as it's so good.

Lauren, Bex and Bella and Matt could not have been better hosts. As a novice event organisation, the team have been so incredible in supporting our 40th birthday party. Highly recommended. Thank you everyone.

Average ice creams, stale cones and terrible service. The two staff on duty couldn’t have been less interested. No surprise there was only one other table filled on a Saturday afternoon.

I’ve visited regularly over the years, and the food was once really good. They have changed the menu recently and the food is now over-priced and very small portions. We had burgers (£13), which came on a tiny side-plate, burger bun not toasted, no garnish/salad. The burger patty was mushy. We ordered fries (£4), which came in a tiny bowl, just a small handful. £17 for a tiny portion of lack-lustre burger and fries. I’ve always recommended the food here to friends, but not now. Save your money and eat somewhere else, such a shame.

Asked for chips they came cold, didn't not get any sauce with it, when asked for mayo at the bar it did not arrive, we left after our first drink and after finishing the cold fries
