Phoenix Dining

My favourite restaurant in Chichester. It really is a hidden gem, right next to Priory Park and The Harbour Hotel. Delicious Asian food (Chinese and Nepalese) run by a charming husband and wife team. A lot of love goes into the food, always jazz music playing to create a warm ambience and they offer a good pre-theatre set menu, the perfect place to come before a performance at Chichester Festival Thestre, which is a walk away. Highly recommended.

Went for lunch and chose the set menu, extremely well priced (£14 for two courses/ £16 for three) and delicious. Had the tempura vegetables to start followed by the Seafood Udon noodles and homemade rice pudding. Very cosy setting and the staff were attentive without being pushy. Would highly recommend and will visit again

I’ve lived in Chichester for two years now and I’ve never found a better restaurant here. Hands-down the best meal I’ve ever had for £20 (I’d absolutely be willing to pay more, but the value is brilliant.) As far as I can tell, every single thing on the menu is good. The atmosphere is so relaxed, and the last few times I’ve been the staff have managed to get our food to us just a few minutes after we ordered. I have absolutely no criticisms for this place - I can’t recommend it highly enough.

Had a fabulous lunch at Phoenix Dining today. It's owned and run by a young husband and wife team, who bring a wonderful blend of Nepali and Chinese food cultures together to create interesting and flavour-packed dishes. A short, but well-judged menu is on offer, and this place must be the best value in Chichester. Dishes are beautifully presented, and we learned today that they opened in 2021. How brave, considering the economic climate of the time. I think they could produce a range of house sauces and seasoning blends to take away. The flavours are so interesting. They really deserve to do well. I won't hesitate to return when back in Chi. Wishing them every success for the future.
