The Ocean Restaurant

me & my partner came here a few months ago, we ordered a selection of delicious seafood! highlights being the mouth watering mussels & scallops! i was amazed by the impressive range of celebrity visitor photos that covered the walls on the downstairs area. big fan of the architecture and was very lucky to be seated by the beautiful windows! fantastic atmosphere, great drinks and food, would definitely recommend <3

We woke up on a sunny saturday in London, deciding to head to Brighton at the request of my Southern Italian girlfriend so she could return to the Regency Restaurant for some seafood. I was more than happy to do so, as I was craving seafood too. As we approached the restaurant it was sat on a corner looking out onto the sea, and when you walk in you get a similar feeling of fishing with the big open restaurant and decor reminiscent of doing that. When inside you can look out onto the ocean getting that connection and a reminder, your food came from what you see in front of you. The sea. We were warmly welcomed into this busy yet calm restaurant, with everyone seeming to enjoy their food. However the other noticeable thing was the amazing smells you inhale as you breathe in the whiff of sea air from the fresh food being served. As we sat down to order our food we decided on getting a nice bottle of Sauvignon Blanc to accompany the classic English prawn cocktail starter before we would enjoy "The Mediterranean" main course. While waiting for the food it was noticed the staff were a mixture of Greek and Portuguese folks, and that for me added validation the food was going to be very good as people from those parts of the world know how to cook seafood well. First our Prawn Cocktail arrived and it was very tasty for a simple dish, with the freshness from the prawns tasted with every bite. However the grand show was the arrival of "The Mediterranean" main course we ordered, and when it arrived it was a dish fitnfirnthe gods. Seeing a nice piece of hake on top of an assortment of shellfish had my eyes salivating, with smells anyone would die for. While we started eating and noticed all the juices from the cooking, we asked for some bread. Adding pieces of bread to the plate I realised how great this dish was just from the taste of the bread, once it had soaked up all the goodness on the bottom of the plate. There are reasons my girlfriend wanted to come back to the Regency Restaurant, which I now understand and would happily return. When you are welcomed as if you entered a family home full of love and can have great conversations with staff, before experiencing the amazing food and ambiance of this restaurant. You know this restaurant is a gem to Brighton and England. If I ever have a craving for great seafood, I would easily jump on a train leaving London to have more seafood at the Regency Restaurant!

Went for Valentines Day. Wonderful service from the males who served us. Couldn’t be better and would definitely come back. Lots of laughs all night and very attentive. I thought our food was very lovely. Generous portion sizes and reasonably priced. Cant wait to come back if only to see the guys again. Truly amazing service

A lovely Brighton beach restaurant. Lovely seaside view. Friendly and attentive staff. Fast service. We each had a fish and chips. Fish batter was not super thick (pleasantly surprised) and the chips were hot and a good size. Lovely to sit in the sun and enjoy a meal. Lovely restaurant and if you are on the Brighton beachfront and want fish & chips - I would recommend this spot!

Sehr zentral gelegenes Restaurant mit Aussenbereich und Aussicht aufs Meer. Das Personal ist unkompliziert auf Wünsche eingegangen. Grosse Auswahl an schnell zubereiteten Speisen vor allem aus der mediterranen Küche, daher auch empfehlenswert wenn nicht viel Zeit vorhanden ist. (Translated by Google) Very centrally located restaurant with an outdoor area and a view of the sea. The staff responded to requests in an uncomplicated manner. Large selection of quickly prepared dishes, especially from Mediterranean cuisine, therefore also recommended if you don't have much time.
