Fantastic food and service in this lovely vibrant French restaurant. Loved the steak, though all the menu options looked lovely. Exquisite creme brulee for pud. If you are in the area it’s a must visit for a great meat and fun selection of wine. All the staff were very attentive and helpful. Reservation recommended as it was busy at evening.
Spectacular French restaurant in Brighton. Everything was perfect and delicious. So happy I went here and I highly recommend it. If you want truly delicious classic French food in a low key setting with good service. This is the place!!

I was bought a gift voucher for my birthday and had never heard of the restaurant. I thought it was going to be pretentious, fancy food in a posh place!! I was very wrong. The food was really, really good and the portion sizes were great. I would order a side of veg next time though. The staff were excellent and very friendly. The only negative was that the tables are VERY close to each other and it felt a bit claustrophobic in there. You are approx 1-1.5 feet away from the table next to you, just enough space to squeeze between tables to get out. The whole experience was great and the table thing wasn't enough to put us off, but could put others off.
Had the best birthday lunch here. The ‘Prix Fix’ menu is definitely value for money. We also added their specials dish of asparagus and wild garlic pesto. They even provided me with a birthday chocolate and candle. Lovely staff and amazing food!

Petit Poisbrighton is a French restaurant located in the heart of Brighton on Ship Street. The restaurant has a cosy and intimate atmosphere, with elegant decor and soft lighting. The menu features classic French dishes, such as escargots, coq au vin, and bouillabaisse, and vegetarian and vegan options.
The quality of the food, and the ingredients are fresh and cooked to perfection. The beef sirloin and the duck breast were just divine. The portions are also fairly generous. The wine list is also highly fantastic, with a good selection of French wines that complement the food well.
The service at Petit Pois is excellent, with friendly and attentive staff who are knowledgeable about the menu and happy to make recommendations. Petit Pois would make a wonderful place for a romantic dinner or a special occasion, with its intimate atmosphere.
However, the prices at Petit Pois are on the higher side, and it may not be the best option for a casual or budget-friendly meal.
Overall, Petit Pois is a must-visit for anyone who appreciates quality French cuisine and a romantic atmosphere. While it may not be the most affordable option, it's an excellent choice for a special occasion or a romantic night out.

The only very slight downfalls were the tables were quite close to one another and the bread needed a little refresh in the oven or to be freshly sliced. Just one more thing as a preference. I thought the goats cheese croquettes were some for of dip. Maybe a fig honey or something along those lines
Possibly the best meal I’ve had in the UK and would put it in my top 20 restaurants to try around the world!
Overall a good restaurant in Brighton however the mains were a wee bit on a smaller side. We had beef tartare, snails, seafood Bouillabaisse and steak, 2 desserts and compliment of the chef (truffle balls) and walked out hungry 😂
The crème brûlée set was my favorite!
Steak was a bit chewy, snails missed some flavor.
If you are craving French place in Brighton, it’s should be your place however don’t expect French quality.
Excellent food and service. Great value for money too. Will definitely be back!
A stone's throw from the beach, this little french restaurant offers a perfect mix of cocktails, superb food and friendly service. Everything tastes as good as it looks. They do a Sunday roast as well which looked great so will definitely be back try it out!
Lovely cosy little French restaurant tucked away in Brighton. Very often fully booked so make sure to book ahead! We booked on quite short notice so could only get a lunch slot on a Saturday in September. Well worth it though, beautifully presented food, good and attentive service and not too pricey!
