About this restaurant

Romantic
Innovative
Good for special occasions

If you’re a fan of tasty, vibrant Italian cooking, using high-quality seasonal ingredients, served in a casual and friendly environment, then you need to be heading to Polpo Brighton sooner rather than later. Specialising in Venetian cuisine specifically, you’ll find an enticing menu that’s brimming with classics from Venice and the neighbouring region. Located on New Road in Brighton, this branch of Polpo is right in the heart of the North Laines and is within walking distance of Brighton Station and the beach. Perfect for dining with friends or that special someone, you’ll love relaxing over mouth-watering pizzette topped with prosciutto and gorgonzola, sautéed tiger prawns with chilli and garlic, broad bean, mint & ricotta bruschetta or pan-roasted roasted sea bass served with tomatoes, anchovies, olives, capers and basil – all washed down with a chilled glass of prosecco or a Venetian spritz, of course.

I was very disappointed at the poor value of this restaurant. The food was lack lustre and should be half the price it is. I will not return

Nice place and the bigger plates were lovely. The smaller starter plates were ok but very expensive for what they were.

Although part of a small chain it did not feel that way. Tasty Italian food and decent choice of wines at sensible prices. Nice service in a cosy (even though quite large) room.
