The 13 Best Restaurants In Brighton & Hove - London - The Infatuation

"We love London. No really, we do. That being said, approximately three bites into Wild Flor’s glazed pig cheek pappardelle, we were willing to ghost the capital and set our Oyster card on fire. Such is the delicious power of the refined yet entirely inventive dishes at this seasonal wine bar and restaurant in Hove. It’s just a 10-minute drive from the pier, or you can go for a scenic 30-minute walk along the seafront. We promise the brief excursion is entirely worth it. The long drinks list is an instant crowd-pleaser and includes aged wines at good value, as well as a Negroni that will convince you that missing the last train isn’t such a bad shout if you can stay in their moody dining room forever." - heidi lauth beasley

"A group of lifelong friends own this relaxed neighbourhood restaurant, and they lead the service with obvious pride. The room takes on a modern bistro style and there’s a pleasingly unpretentious feel to the place. Well-prepared, seasonally changing dishes – try the goose rillettes with redcurrants in the winter – have a similarly unfussy style and good depth of flavour." - Michelin Inspector

Wild Flor Review - Brighton - London - The Infatuation

"We love London. No really, we do. That being said, approximately three bites into Wild Flor’s glazed pig cheek pappardelle, we were willing to ghost the capital, set our Oyster card on fire, and start talking shit about our ex, Big Ben (just a big clock really, isn’t it?). Such is the delicious power of the refined yet entirely inventive dishes at this truly memorable seasonal wine bar and restaurant in Hove.  It’s just a ten-minute drive from the pier, or you can go for a scenic 30-minute walk along the seafront. We promise the brief excursion is entirely worth it.  The long drinks list is an instant crowd-pleaser and includes aged wines at good value, as well as a negroni that will convince you that missing the last train isn’t such a bad shout if you can stay in their moody dining room forever.

Me and my partner went here after being recommended by a chef I work with and it was fabulous! I tried the lobster special and it was the best lobster I’ve ever had, the potato salad and bisque was insane and everything was ultimately tasty. We also tried the beef croquettes, oysters and prawns for starters which were all delicious and perfectly prepared, my partner absolutely adored the chocolate pot for dessert as well. The wine list is perfect, I had the cheapest vinho verde as wanted to spend more on my food and it was still fantastic. Only thing I wouldn’t recommend was the margarita but that’s just my personal preference (no salt rim, not on the rocks so if you like that then go for it!) Our servers were great too, extremely good service thank you guys!

We had a great meal at Wild Flor. The oysters were super fresh, the prawns were smoky and delicious with plenty of butter and the baked crab was rich and comforting with a crisp topping. Great wine too - will definitely be back!

The very BEST! What an awesome experience, the food was absolutely to die for, highly recommend the linguine & crab! The wine was stunning & the staff were brilliant & so friendly. This is our second visit & both times were absolutely perfect. We can’t wait to visit again, if you’re in Brighton do not miss a trip to Wild Flor!

What an absolutely fantastic place to celebrate an anniversary! ❤️ Wild Flor is just gorgeous - from the friendly greeting at the start of the evening, all the way through to settling the bill, we enjoyed every moment of our time here. The restaurant has a really calming, cosy ambience to it. The staff are so friendly and attentive without being overbearing, and they had even written us a card wishing us a happy anniversary!! So thoughtful 🥹 There is an extensive wine list and a great selection of cocktails - we really enjoyed our glasses of the verdinho and rosé, and the Todoli Margarita we paired with our pudding was zesty, fresh and incredibly strong!! You have been warned 😆 The star of the show at Wild Flor is, of course, the food. We kicked off with the ink battered squid, which was expertly partnered with fennel, saffron, and blood orange. I haven’t had anything like this before - the combination was a bit mind-blowing!! All starters come with delicious sourdough bread and butter, too. We used ours to mop up the saffron sauce 😋 We chose the bavette steak and Chalk Stream trout for our mains, and shared the confit potato side dish, which was crispy and incredibly moreish. The steak was cooked to perfection. If I was being hyper-critical, I would say that the wilted spinach (which somehow seemed to have been cooked very well but still retained its crunch - impressive) was intensely garlic flavoured. I am a massive garlic fan, so not an issue - but even to me it was a little overpowering! My partner really enjoyed the Chalk Stream trout dish - I tried a piece and it was perfectly cooked. We finished up with the aforementioned Margarita and the limequat & coconut ‘key lime pie’. This pudding was sensational - creamy, zesty, and melt-in-the-mouth. We shared the pudding but I wish I had ordered my own one to be honest - I could have eaten 10 😅 Thanks so much for a wonderful evening, Wild Flor - we can’t wait to come back and try many more menus!! ✨

Had the spring 3 course menu for £25 which was great value, added oysters which were from Dorset, gorgeously plump and flavoursome. Delicious and interesting food combinations simply presented and unfussy. Highly recommend the Mutton sausage (pictured). Good service, nice warming interiors. Enjoyed the wines which were recommended. Very solid 4s across the board but lacked a bit of wow factor to push into the 5*

A thoroughly disappointing and expensive dinner out. The tomato tart was some of the worst pastry we've ever had, dry and absolutely flavourless. The £28 poached trout was really under-seasoned and uninspiring. The starter was strange and expensive and was made with cheap and boring salad leaves. The waitress that evening clearly could tell we weren't content with our food, and to be fair asked clearly cared about that too. The bar staff were also very friendly. I just could never recommend this place to eat, there are so many more creative and flavourful options close by. I'm sorry that it's a challenge as a local restaurant right now but it's just not acceptable to pair this food at this price point. It was about £120-140 in the end for really underwhelming food which, frankly, with the competition is why I'd say go somewhere else.

My husband and I had dinner at Wild Flor and the set 2 course menu. From start to finish the evening was outstanding. Food was exceptional - perfectly flavoured and cooked - trout melted in the mouth and the bavette was mouthwatering. Service was superb and thoughtful, with warmth and humour. Music at just the right level to be in the background, lovely calm feel but not too quiet. We paid £55 each for bread, a starter, main, two sides, a drink and gratuity and felt it was excellent value for the quality of the food. We loved it and will be back.

Exceptional restaurant. The set menu was fantastic value. Decor is delightful, ingredients are fresh & the service was top notch. Our server has worked there for a few years and she was very knowledgeable on the menu items.
