What Our Guests Say…

Nothings too much trouble

Fabulous family restaurant where nothing was too much trouble. They didn’t have one ingredient for my son’s meal. So gave him the option of adding something else. The manager ensured everything was to our liking and took notice of comments rather than doing it as a matter of course. I noticed he made an effort to chat to every table. It made for such a lovely relaxed atmosphere and with wonderful fresh, well priced food and drink. I will certainly return again next time I’m in Brighton.

Perfect family lunch

Perfect family lunch and amazing value at Pinocchios. We all enjoyed our meal and found it very filling. This will definitely be on our list of places to return to when visiting Brighton.

The best pasta outside of italy!!!

My family and I came to Brighton for a weekend away and ended up eating here on both days. All the food - main, sides and desserts were lovely! I haven't had a pasta that tasted that good since being in Italy! The food was nicer here than at the some of the more highly ranked restaurants in Brighton. Friendly family run restaurant. Clean, well priced. Would thoroughly recommend.

As good as ever!

It was lovely to visit Pinocchios after quite a long time and to find it was better than ever. From the initial friendly response when I phoned to reserve, through to our delight on arriving to be find their extended outdoor seating area, the food and service were great and so reasonable in price for an evening meal. Lots of atmosphere for a warm September Monday evening. Thank you Pinocchios.
