Excellent food. Halibut with sweetcorn was stand out dish. Service was attentive but a little pushed at the end with a short delay serving coffee.

Really fab time - arrived a little early and had the pick of tables. Really warm welcome, the guy on front of house was attentive, really helpful and fun too. The food was amazing, loved the Carlingford oyster with elderflower and jersey cream, the mackerel, sea bream and halibut incredible too. To top that the strawberrys and cream was a real surprise and so luscious. Thank you chef. Would certainly visit again and highly recommend the Little Fish Market. JB

This is my favourite Brighton restaurant. Great food, adult ambience and friendly, competent service. The table d'hôte system suite me fine. I'm happy to choose the chef and let the chef choose the menu.

From the moment Rob greeted us at the door it became one of our most memorable dining experiences. Each and every one of the five courses were outstanding. The miso glazed mackerel was out of this world, cooked to perfection with such a delicate flavor and the fish just melted in my mouth. Followed by the sea bream with it's crispy skin that was so delightful I didn't want it to end. The main dish, a trio of delights with halibut, crab ravioli and the corn and girolle mushrooms. All three were perfect and the various combinations of taste made it truly unforgettable. Then just when you think it's all over, their version of strawberries and cream was incredible - finely diced strawberries topped with a clotted cream ice cream complemented with a small crispy sponge topped with the finest strawberry sorbet. We will definitely become frequent visitors.

Charming and intimate venue down a quiet little Brighton side street. Cracking little pub a bit further down the road for a pre-dinner drink. Lovely atmosphere. Delicious and innovative dishes. Friendly and conscientious service. Big thumbs up.

Always fabulous. Possibly the best food in East Sussex, however I don't go elsewhere for "special occasions" as so consistent. Wine pairing is genius, no outrageously expensive bottles.. Just right.

We were bowled over by the service, the informal, friendly ambiance, and the food - the Food! Every course was beautifully composed of well-chosen prime ingredients, and every one was delicious. The wine (Je t'aime mail j'ai soif", which perfectly captured my own feelings) from a beautifully tempting list, was excellent....At no point did we feel pressured to drink more, leave earlier, or talk to our server (the knowledgeable co-patron) for more than a comfortable length of time; we couldn't have felt more welcome. This is truly art. But you need to book early - with only 20 covers it gets booked up fast.

We had another wonderful meal at the Little Fish Restaurant, this time on a Tuesday evening. They remembered us and exactly where we'd sat on our last visit which was an impressive start to the evening. The set menu was enticing and we started with an oyster encrusted in grapefruit sorbet - utterly delicious. The rest of the 5 courses lived up to this early promise. We remain very impressed. The standard of cuisine is as good as it gets south o London and the atmosphere is very informal and relaxed without compromising on service. No complaints!

A bit disappointing, heard and read many good reviews, we thought the dishes lacked real flavour, and were a bit bland. Portuguese white wine was good , it was £29 for the bottle, no cheap options, on the wine list.
