Topolino in Brighton and Hove

Came here today for a birthday party and although we are not local, we will definitely be back! The service was brilliant and the dough balls to die for. Pizzas were amazing too. Thank you 😊

Genuinely lovely place, staff and food. I had scallops with caviar to start and the lobster linguine for main which was a whole lobster and wonderful pasta sauce for £30! It was incredible value and very high quality food. Make sure you get the Tiramisu, we shared it between 2 and that was plenty, but a whole one each wouldn't have been an issue as it was incredible! Can't wait to come back, the staff were so attentive, freindly and low pressure. See you soon!

Had a lovely meal this evening for my sons birthday at Topolino. Had the mozzarella dough balls for starter which melt in your mouth. Pasta and Calzones were very tasty. Especially recommend the Rigotoni All Topolino. Angelino was a superb waiter and very friendly and attentive. We will be coming again soon!

Very nice spot super kind staff and very delicious food the food also came in record time and the price is very good

An excellent restaurant in Hove with outstanding service. It's easily one of the best Italian restaurants I've experienced in the UK. Definitely recommend!

Nice place and warm welcome, kids friendly as well.

Excellent lunch, great coffee and service. Disabled access is a little difficult but staff were very helpful

The food did not match the Google ratings and our expectations. Pasta was very overcooked and hardly seasoned. We ate most of it because we were very hungry. The portions were very big though and the service was very nice.

Amazing food, amazing service. Tiramisu to die for, leave some space..

Great value local Italian. I'll be back!

Good food, excellent service, fresh sea food and fish

Visited Saturday night, full restaurant. Service was fantastic from the moment we arrived. Food was amazing and portion size was very good. Will definitely come back.

We fancied a tasty Italian and we saw this inviting and welcoming restaurant from opposite of the street. We popped in without a reservation for dinner on a Saturday and we're accommodated. We enjoyed traditional pasta and starters followed by sweet treats. All great for value for money and super tas6⁵ty 😋. The staff were friendly and the owner poped by for a chat as we might expect from an Italian restaurant to make you feel welcome .

It's a pleasant enough environment but when there a a few groups in there the noise is too much and you cannot hold a normal conversation. Staff were pleasant and attentive. Gnocchi was good, calzone not so good, very limited in the filling, I thought the pizza base had a bit of an odd flavour, but can't identify what it was. Definitely had better locally both pizza and calzone. Overall it was a passable meal, not overpriced but the high ceiling let the noise get a bit much but maybe that's just me.

Delicious- the panacotta was amazing. Would definitely go back x

Ordered caprese salad and carbonara, with wine and aperol spritz. 10/10 service, fresh ingredients and delicious traditional Italian cooking. Was stuffed full but managed to make room for dessert, which was also delicious. Would definitely come here again!!

Went in early, great food super service

Very tasty food; we had pasta. And a heavenly tiramisu. Dog friendly.

Excellent food and service. We had the fish soup, garlic bread with mozzarella, carbonara and seafood pasta. All homemade and really delicious. Highly recommended.

The food at this local Italian restaurant was delicious! The staff was super friendly and helpful. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a delicious Italian meal, with the nicest staff!

5 star service experienced here for a family meal. It’s a really nice restaurant that has a calm feel to it. 6 of us had varied meals fish, pasta, pizza - all finished their plates was fantastic. All had desserts too - all trying something different and plates cleared. Would definitely recommend, they can’t do enough for you.

Great little restaurant serving simple food cooked well. Went for a family meal - very reasonably priced and good value for money.

A quick service restaurant and nice people smiling.. Delicious pasta to try from chef Alfonsoo hand .. chef Alfonsoo Creative and fast work 👍🏻🩵 thank u Alfonsoo 👨‍🍳🩵

This is by far and away the best Italian restaurant in Hove. The food is amazing and the fish very high quality. Angelo the owner and Fetih the head waiter are absolutely fantastic and always ensure people have a great time. The talented chef is Italian and has clearly operated at the highest levels in his career. I went with my son and his friends for a birthday dinner and all six of the boys aged 12 to 14 had great food with no complaints. We last visited for a birthday meal in December and it was excellent then also. Could not recommend Topolino highly enough, and I don't often say that (especially in Brighton and Hove). We will be back very soon!!

Fit us in late, staff were great, service was spot on, we were looked after, very friendly. Good food too. Def recommend

THE BEST SEAFOOD RISOTTO I HAVE EVER HAD!!! My first visit to Topolina, and I’ll definitely be returning. Staff are so welcoming and friendly, and I had the pleasure of meeting the head chef. I haven’t tasted authentic Italian cuisine like this since I was in Italy, I would highly recommend this restaurant and the price is so reasonable considering the quality of food and service you receive.

Very nice authentic italian cuisine, we had some seafood which was excellent. Very friendly staff and affordable prices

Such a lovely meal tonight - I was on my own as staying overnight for work, but they were so lovely and welcoming, so didn’t feel on my own at all! Food was fab, will definitely visit again.

Great hospitality and fantastic food

Absolutely love this restaurant - excellent friendly service, great for vegans and people with allergies, and the food is so good! Really enjoyed it, thoroughly recommend!

Wonderful restaurant. We held a large family lunch here and the staff were absolutely great at accommodating everyone's needs. The food and drink were excellent and the atmosphere was relaxed, unhurried, and friendly.

Delicious food and great service. Perfect for large groups too.

Amazing authentic Italian food! So delicious!!

Incredibly cozy restaurant of Italian cuisine. Each dish is prepared with love and is incredibly tasty. The smell of home comfort and peace hangs in the air. I would like to single out the bread that they prepare on their own: it is the taste of my mother's aromatic pastries. Service at the highest level. Definitely recommend!

I would highly recommend going to Topolino the food was fabulous staff an service really good we had a great time I will definitely go there again and tell my friends about it. Thanks again great time

The staff there are lovely and amazing! All the dishes are so good and yummy. And I think that Tiramisu is a must as the dessert. Highly recommend this place and definitely will come back again.

Lovely restaurant. Food was delicious and service was even better!

Great food, atmosphere and service, thanks we'll be back!

Brilliant little spot. Service is ace, and the menu isn’t huge, which shows in the quality of each dish.

Brought some friends here last night. Delicious food, beautifully presented and really great service. Will be coming back soon!

Fresh Seabas to die for Fresh Scallops very good Home made cheesecake very good service very good will be back there again

Fethi was so lovely...Great pizza and veg risotto. 😊

Amazing service, Mario and Angelo were so charming and really lovely to my son (3), it made his holiday and consequently mine! The atmosphere overall was good, as was the food, the specials were lovely, but it was the service that elevated it from the surrounding restaurants and made our experience very special and truly memorable. I couldn't recommend it more highly.

Fantastic service and delicious food

Everything was excellent. Very generous portions. Will go again.

Had amazing food ..great wine service was so wonderful

Amazing food, great service. Good cocktails too!!

Lovely food, welcome and service.

Wonderful meal! The Gorgonzola gnocchi was absolutely divine ! Can’t wait to come back soon. I would highly recommend

Tonight was my 5th visit to this Hove delight! If you are looking for fabulous food, superb service and ambient atmosphere then look no further. This place is hands down THE best Italian in Brighton and Hove. The menu is not extensive, you are not presented with pages and pages of choice, but what you do get is without a shadow of doubt excellent quality food at a beyond reasonable price. And if you manage to make it to desert, my oh my, the homemade selection is damn awesome! Honestly, don’t bother considering anywhere else - you will NOT be disappointed!

I had a fantastic Spaghetti Carbonara here at New Year , lovely staff too

Lovely place with delicious seafood. Ordered from here last year and never forgot about the scallops. Wasn't disappointed. The scallops are a must-try! Service is perfect and very friendly.

Very friendly and helpful service and a varied choice on the menu without being too big to manage properly. My pizza was delicious and everyone in our party of six enjoyed their meal. We will be back.

Very good food and lovely staff

We had a beautiful lunch here. Great food and super friendly service. Loved it.

Great food, amazing and warm hospitality from the host. Lemoncello surprise at the end. Bellissimo!

Had such a lovely evening! The food was gorgeous & the service was amazing - would highly recommended!

Best restaurant for Italian food, amazing service, definitely recommend this place

We had a booking for 4 people to celebrate my son’s birthday. Unfortunately we couldn’t go as one of us wasn’t feeling well. I placed the order and collected it and we are at home. The lasagna was absolutely delicious and so was the garlic bread and tiramisu. The staff were very friendly and understanding when I cancelled the reservation. I am so happy to have found a real Italian restaurant with genuine flavours. Grazie!!!

Amazing restaurant, amazing staff, amazing food, nothing to fault at all. Will be our usual hangout going forward. Thank you fattie for your great service. You are amazing. We really had a great time, will come back soon.

The restaurant is a must visit for authentic Italian and great service!!

Amazing food, brilliant service.

Excellent service, even boxed up our food to have later, as my partner couldn't finish his. A free limoncello at the end too. Lovely, quaint place and the gnocchi is a definite go to!

The best restaurant in the whole town with the best seafood in Brighton

Wonderful restaurant with incredible food. Cannot recommend the dough balls enough, they were amazing! All main course were finished with clean plates all round. Service was excellent, friendly but never encroaching. Value was excellent and will visit again in the future.

Fantastic food and service, real Italian cuisine - buonissimo!

Siamo stati io ed il mio compagno per cena siamo rimasti molto soddisfatti sia per la cena Eccelente che per il personale molto cordiale. Il proprietario una persona squisita.

È stato tutto buonissimo, dal polpo è patate allo spaghetto allo scoglio, poi persone gentilissime

Excellent traditional Italian food! Charming service and exquisitely clean facilities. I am so excited for this new restaurant 💫💫💫💫💫

Lucy and I love this place. Great steak, pasta pizza and tiramisu. Real attention to detail by top chefs. Definitely going again.

We had a lovely meal at Topolino! Delicious food and very friendly warm service. Thank you!

Very pleasant Sunday afternoon lunch. Lovely food and fantastic staff. Would definitely go back again

I don't usually write reviews, but I had to after dining at this restaurant with my partner last weekend. We stumbled upon this place, walking through Hove, having been out for a few drinks. My go-to is always an Italian, and what a find this was. We received a really friendly welcome from staff, as we hadn't booked, and they were very busy, but we were lucky enough to be seated at a lovely table by the window. We could not fault the service at all. Soooooo helpful. GREAT MENU!!!! The food was absolutely outstanding!!! We recommend anything, Seafood! Freshly made pasta, pizzas are to die for. I had scallops to start....omg deeeeelicious. My partner loves fried squids, which again....amazing. I really fancied a seafood pizza, which isn't on the menu, but they made it for me anyway, which was incredible. For me, it was as good if not better than VIP pizza in Brighton. My partner had their seafood spaghetti. He enjoyed every mouthful, and he got so much seafood. This has become our favourite Italian by far in Hove. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!!!

Great little restaurant, food is amazing. Staff very friendly & helpful, will definitely be back soon

Excellent menu choice. Food was good!

I had the pleasure of dining at this Italian-style restaurant and indulging in their Margarita pizza. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, adding to the overall positive experience. The pizza itself was authentic and absolutely delicious. Highly recommended for a truly delightful Italian culinary adventure!

Staff are so warm and welcoming and the food was really yummy! I’ll definitely be back and highly recommend!

Topolino Hove I recently had the pleasure of celebrating my daughter's birthday at the new Topolino restaurant in Hove, and I must say, it was an absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish. The restaurant exceeded my expectations in every aspect. Whether you have a craving for pasta, pizza, fish, meat, or seafood, you will find many options that will satisfy even the most discerning of taste buds. The staff at Topolino are a true asset to the restaurant. They are professional, attentive, and friendly, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. From the moment we stepped foot in the restaurant, we were greeted with genuine smiles and promptly seated. They went above and beyond to make my daughter's birthday celebration special, and their thoughtfulness did not go unnoticed. The food is exceptional, the staff is outstanding, and the overall atmosphere is delightful. If you haven’t tried this restaurant yet, I highly recommend visiting.

Really lovely meal, attentive staff. Good quality food and nice vibes. Will definitely come back again thank you

We been there for a date night. The restaurant was clean and cozy, the management was frendly and attentive. The starters were well presented and delicious. Good wine and really authentic traditional italians mains. Fresh fish. A nice way to end your weekend. Hope to come back soon.

Had a fab time at Topolino today. Food was delicious and beautifully presented. Staff was very friendly, helpful and gave us great advice on the choice of food and drinks. Highly recommended, 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Been to Topolino today! It was lovely food, lovely service by the host. Definitely will come back again.

This is a new place in Hove that is well worth a visit! First time eating here and it was unreal. The food was delicious and full of flavour. Big portion sizes. We had pasta and personally i think it was the best quality in Brighton. The dishes are a great value for money and the baba desert is the best i’ve ever tasted! Homemade too. Would definitely come again :)
