Waterfront Grill in Brighton and Hove

We were going to another (chain) restaurant further down because we had a discount voucher for there. We stopped to look at the menu here at The Waterfront on the way. Sam the waiter was a very nice helpful person and not at all pushy. He let us know exactly what was in the dishes (sometimes you only get the main order and have to order sides on top) He showed us the full menu for us to make a decision as to whether to eat here. The price of the main meal included potatoes and a small salad salad. We thought about it and decided to try it out. We made the right decision to stay. My Swordfish and my husbands Tuna were cooked to perfection. That told us there was a very good chef in the kitchen. Fish is so easy to overcook but this was succulent and tasty. The price of these dishes was reasonable and the portions were a good size. We would definitely eat here again if eating in the Marina. A very good lunch was had today, many thanks.

A pleasant evening meal in wonderful location. Wanting seafood this was the perfect choice. All our dishes were tasty and plentiful. The swordfish was the star of the dishes. The server was attentive and friendly Prices were very reasonable

The snapper was ordinary, the linguini was tasty but pasta way over cooked. Chef needs to learn two Italian words. Al dente!!!

I have never been to this restaurant before and decided to give it a go for a date with my girlfriend. Honestly didn’t know what to expect but was blown away, could not believe how quiet it was though on a Friday night. Definitely a hidden gem at the marina, the staff were unbelievable with their service and friendliness. Prices were very reasonable and the setting of the restaurant itself was magnificent, a nice modern design with a lovely view on the seafront and was nicely complimented with some tasteful Christmas decorations during this festive period. Thank you for helping it make a night to remember will most likely return again!

We came for a weekend away and had booked a restaurant in town but didn't feel like going into town, you have all the usual chain restaurants on the Marina so thought we'd try this one instead. The young guys waiting tables were very polite and lovely and the food was amazing, maybe a little more expensive than some of the restaurants but worth it.

We went here about a month ago and I had the grilled chicken breast burger and fries and although it was expensive 15-95 it was really nice and plenty of fries so decided to go back yesterday and have the same only this time there was half the amount of fries and the chicken was actually made up from chicken mince mixed with something else and it wasn't at all nice especially when you're paying that sort of money so won't be going back

Brilliant like sitting in the med, Grilled sardines , seafood and cold beer. brilliant. If you don’t like fish or meat and want to eat some sawdust in brine there are better restaurants leave the seats for the meat and fish lovers 😏

Service was good- very friendly and attentive staff. Food was nice enough but not special enough to warrant the eye watering prices. For £50 a head( 2 courses) inc 3 drinks and a tip I would expect fine dining as opposed to the sort of fodder you expect in somewhere like Prezzo. Oh and for goodness sake- get someone to go in and dust the ladies bathrooms- they were absolutely filthy!

Menu mainly fish, no vegetarian options. Portions were large and very expensive. Less food and lower the prices will definitely need to happen for this place to survive. At £9 a pint and £4.50 for a small bottle of coke it leaves you with a bad taste. The floors were sticky, the ladies toilets were like a night club at 2 in the morning. Not what I expected.

This restaurant seems to change its name every other week and has had multiple ownerships since opening. It appears to have been refurbished and looks very nice. It's never been a first rate fish restaurant, which is a shame as the Marina could do with one, it's always had a substantial Italian element to its menu, nothing wrong with Italian but why not concentrate on fish and shellfish? How about some oysters and fresh crab? What they offer are fairly pedestrian dishes with quite big portions, cooked reasonably well but the price of the food and drink is extortionate. Many of the dishes are more expensive than their equivalents in the Ivy and this restaurant can't justify that. Cheapest bottle of white wine £28. Seriously? The restaurant service was covered by one man on the lunchtime that we went but he managed superbly. All in all poor value for money but you won't go home hungry.

Have walked past this restaurant 100s of times but finally decided to give it a try and don’t know why we waited so long. The service was some of the best service I’ve experienced and the food was not only delicious but really generous too. We had the grilled sardines and muscles for starters followed by the sea bass fillets and swordfish. Everything was cooked perfectly and tasted so fresh. Will definitely be visiting again soon. Highly recommend.

My partner and I visited The Waterfront Grill at the weekend and yes we were blessed with wonderful weather but I felt it important to say the Calamari starter and two main meals of lobster linguine and fillet steak were cooked to perfection and presentation was stunning. We experienced an outstanding level of customer service from Jake. He was the absolute example of quality customer service delivery, warm, polite friendly and engaging. Set us up with the perfect table setting and nothing too much trouble. His fellow waiters were equally as engaging so this restaurant deserves a 5 star review for the whole team. We will definitely be back!

Fantastic restaurant, perfectly cooked sea bass with a great location and lovely staff! Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area

What an amazing lunch we had. Fantastic food, great value for money. The seafood was exceptionally fresh and the menu is really varied so there’s something for everyone.

This is a little gem tucked away amongst all the other restaurants on the Marina. Really clean and friendly restaurant. Just the most amazing menu with fantastic fish dishes . Quality of food is exceptional - so good that I had 3 courses and all were excellent and superb value. The ambience of the restaurant is perfect. Amazing service from Lisa - so friendly and welcoming. Really enjoyed my evening here and I will definitely be visiting again - I need to try all the other dishes on the menu!!
