The best restaurants in South East

Delivery was quick and efficient but I didn’t get my free tiffin for spending over £15 :(

La Tana is truly the best Italian restaurant in Brighton! From the moment you step in, you're greeted with warm hospitality and an inviting atmosphere. The food is absolutely delicious—each dish is bursting with authentic flavors that transport you straight to Italy. Since our first visit, we've returned three times because we just can't get enough! The service is impeccable; the staff are friendly, attentive, and genuinely passionate about providing a great dining experience. What makes La Tana stand out even more is that the entire kitchen team is Italian, which really shines through in the quality and authenticity of the food. You can tell every dish is cooked with love and dedication. Highly recommend for anyone craving genuine Italian cuisine in Brighton. We’ll definitely be back again soon!

Food hot and the chicken never failed to be lovely

Lovely food and service! Good lunch time deals

First time to the sportsman last night. Just can't fault a thing , the perfect evening. Exceptional food and served by Exceptional staff all set in a relaxed atmosphere. The chefs reputation is well deserved. Many thanks and will see you again.

Absolutely spot on. Lovely food. Mixed grill..sauces made in house. Lovely jubbly 👌

This cozy oyster bar is definitely a hidden gem in Brighton, located right by the beach. It has limited seating, but all the spots offer beautiful sea views, making it a very relaxing place to enjoy a meal! I ordered oysters, crayfish, and dressed crab, and everything was delicious and incredibly fresh. I loved the crayfish so much that I ordered another serving. They offer seafood in three different portion sizes—small, medium, and large—which is very thoughtful. The female owner was also nice and friendly, reminding us to watch out for the "pirates" while dining! Overall, a fantastic trip experience by the beach during the weekend:)

We really enjoyed our dinner here. The food was just delicious, the service perfect as well. We definitely will back again. Thank you so much!

This is a charming restaurant serving great food in the centre of Oxted, a stone's throw from the station. We went on a Sunday for the buffet. The starters are served at your table and are beautifully presented and delicious. When we were ready for mains we were given a plate each to serve ourselves from the buffet as many times as we could manage. The selection is varied including chicken, beef and lamb curries and vegetarian options. There is also rice and noodles. The unique style of naan bread is served at your table to mop up the delicious curry sauces. The wine selection is varied and reasonably priced. The staff are friendly, welcoming and efficient. The Ghurka Kitchen is open all say so you can eat when you choose. I can't fault it.

I would normally give this place 4/5 stars, but sadly our last visit to see Sinners was hugely disappointing. We sat right at the back, dead centre, on the sofas. Directly in front of us was someone with big hair and the other was tall so the screen was about 40% obscured. We were constantly dodging and weaving - for 2 and a half hours! In addition, the sound was so loud that it was distorted, so it was hard to understand some of the dialogue. On top of this, 2 large glasses of very mediocre red wine cost £19, and with the cost of the tickets and booking fees, it set us back around £50. Not a good evening, I'm afraid.

We visited twice while on holiday for a week. First Sunday lunch was amazing, roast beef and all the trimmings was cook to perfection. Pub was busy, so had to wait about 45min and in my experience that is perfectly exceptable for the quality food we received. 2nd time was early evening, we had burgers all round. Again, very well, cook great quality ingredients and was served within 20 mins. My son is also a celiac, and to pub offers a great gluten-free menu, which he was very happy about. The landlord and staff are very welcoming, helpful and great atmosphere. The best recommendation I can give this place is I wish it was near to where I live. I will return and I recommend it to anyone.

Late and cold food. This place has gone downhill.

The food was reasonable although when I ordered the pork belly I received pork loin instead and was informed it’s just a different type of pork belly. We were hurried to order when we wanted to relax and enjoy some wine 1st. The wine was as issue for me I ordered a bottle of appessimento then primitivo both of which I see on Tesco shelves at £9 and £11 respectively. I understand a restaurant mark up is generally 200-300 percent so £38 per bottle was excessive.

Grat food and a good selection of Ales.

We stopped for lunch on our walk of the local hills to find a wide fronted pub alongside the main road. Plenty of parking for those on wheels. Once inside you are immediately struck by the change in decor and atmosphere since we last visited. Gone is the cosy country pub now replaced with a brash well lit American roadside theme that just seems to work. The menu has had the same transformation serving up typical American BBQ options. Thankfully the cask ale is still available ... Three on offer the day we visited. The two sampled were in excellent condition and well served by friendly staff. A barrell was changed during our visit ... Do good to see a cellar person on duty at lunchtime...not always the case these days. Food was good , tasty and promptly served. Enormous portions. Looks like it's a music venue after dark. Will stop by again.
