Restaurants · Brighton
Indian food in Brighton that manages to feel special without being precious about children — the room runs long and splits into three sections, so a family with a pram can settle at the front near the window rather than in the thick of it. That layout matters: a big party at the back can carry noise, and moving is easy enough if it does. High chairs and a kids' menu are there, and the vegan side of the menu is genuinely broad rather than an afterthought. Food comes out quickly and beautifully plated — the garlic naan, chicken tikka, samosa chaat and onion bhaji get named again and again, and portions are generous for the price. Staff are patient with indecision and happy to suggest. One parent describes the welcome as "gracious and memorable". Worth booking at weekends.
