Not only the best vegetarian restaurant in Brighton but in my opinion the best restaurant in Brighton period... and I'm not even a vegetarian. Organic wines and ciders, elaborate towering salads, wonderful staff, and the most glorious and imaginative (vegetarian, but who cares?) food you've tasted in ages. I recommend the rosti. Should be £20-40 a head, depending how carried away you get with the wine. And you should. Take a date.

The burned-out skeleton of the West Pier might be mostly gone, but it's still a darned sight better looking than the other one.
