Lovely little restaurant, we ate a wide variety of small plates and all were delicious (though small, ended up ordering some more as we went) staff were polite, responsive and generally nice. Would thoroughly recommend!

I can’t say enough good things about Kitgum. We had 5 dishes, all were absolutely delicious. The fried cauliflower was over the top. Yum. The staff were friendly and attentive, and we were fortunate enough to meet the owner and his family who were delightful.

Great tasting food, small venue so worth booking a table. Small portions so slightly overpriced for what you get. Still worth a visit for the unique fusion of East African and Asian flavours.

We had a lovely time here and enjoyed all of the different flavours of the foods. We were served by the chef wearing chilli ear rings who had the most welcoming smile and was so attentive and friendly. It made the whole experience!! The wines and beers were also so delicious.

Firstly, the taste of the food is the main attraction here. Can't fault that. Nice spice combinations, simple presentation - just delicious. When I visited, there were only 12 dishes on the menu, which made things easy! However, the portions are small and expensive. Six small wings for a tenner, a curry main course which is around the third of the size of one you'd get in an Indian restaurant is £14. Staff are lovely but conditions in the restaurant are cramped - more like a greasy spoon than a restaurant. I sat back to back with another diner. Meal for two was around £108 - it would've been £122 but I noticed that we were overcharged on the. Definitely worth trying but not more than once for me - an expensive night out fotr what you're getting.

Really tasty well made food, small restaurant but friendly staff and nice place to eat. Couple of other reviews stating food was expensive and I think maybe one or two dishes were a bit overpriced but most ok. My issue was the food is served as it's ready, which is common these days, but the rice and bread came at the end when we had eaten all the dishes we needed the rice for. And £6.50 for a can of beer is annoying

Amazing food. Must eat in Brighton! Friendly and kind staff. Food super tasty! Really don’t miss it! Also, make a booking or be willing to wait!!! Get the mandazi and kulfi for dessert! It’s stunning. And for mains get the kahai chicken, the white fish, and the okra! They were great great great. Amazing quality and flavours. Incredible Can’t recommend this place enough! HYPED We paid £70 for 2 starters, 3 mains, 1 beer (local - very good), and 1 dessert. We were 3 of us, and shared everything! So so so so so good.

Amazing flavours, very tasty, beautiful colours, perfect sized shared dishes for two, we only had the veggie / vegan dishes and loved every mouthful. It is a small cosy intermate place. Music was a tad loud and I personally would have liked cushions on the chairs. Lovely staff. Shame the prices have gone up.

Amazing place, delicious food - there were four of us and as it’s sharing plates we were able to try basically everything on the menu which was a dream!! All the staff were so lovely and we spoke to the owner who was so welcoming and clearly passionate about providing excellent food and service to customers. We booked so were able to be seated right away, there are only 6 tables inside so not sure what it would be like for walk ins. Might be worth phoning ahead. Support this local business it is amazing!

Really interesting menu, delicious food, lovely atmosphere and attentive staff. Pretty much ate everything on the menu! Our party's favourites were the cured sea trout, Kenya potatoes, and the lamb curry. Will definitely be back.
