Giggling Squid in Brighton and Hove

Great food. Perfect presentation. Lovely staff.the food has so many layers to the flavours. Spicy and refreshing. Loved the personal touch in the menu & the creativity

Not great. Lots of food off the menu. Only enough ingredients to make one cocktail even though there were four of us. Took over 45 mins for starter to come then wrong starters arrived. Food pretty bland.

Lovely food, flavoured and spiced beautifully. Only disappointment was that they had run out of the butternut boat, but all the other dishes are lovely so no problem there. Service was quick and food didn't take long to arrive. Highly recommend

Lovely food, great service & the staff are very friendly & welcoming. Love that they have a Tapas section

The first impression of this restaurant was excellent. The decor is very nice although the menu was wet on the table we were sat at upstairs. The smells from the kitchen were very appetising. Initially I tried to order dishes from the stock photos on the website, to be told they were only available at lunchtime. We ordered duck spring rolls and squid for starters. The squid was rubbery and undercooked. That was the first thing that couldn't be eaten. We ordered two fish dishes for mains. One was described as mildly hot on the menu and the other was described as hotter. When the food arrived we were disappointed to find there was so much chilli in both dishes, they were barely edible. I love chilli and spice but it was even too much for me. And as they were fish dishes this totally overpowered and spoiled the meals. There were huge chunks of lemon grass and whole green peppercorn trees and many other inedible items on the plate. We left hungry.

A really nice restaurant, though Thai food is typically not my thing, was quite impressed.Customer service was awesome, and appreciated how they had a colouring menu and crayons for young children. Knocked 1 star off for getting a order wrong initially, though to their credit they apologised and quickly resolved the issue.

Managed to get the window seat upstairs so we could enjoy the atmosphere and people watch.It was a much needed date night out with my wife and the staff couldn’t of made it any better.Food was great, service was speedy and with a smile.

Beautiful lunch here today.The tapas is such a lovely way to share dishes and get to try different foods. The dumplings were my favourite today but everything was gorgeous.Also had the mango cake which was delicious.Service was super. The place is very clean and the decor is lovely.I can't wait to go again. Definitely recommend.

Found this place by chance when we were walking around in Hove before going back to London. The food was good, great service and beautiful presentation. Definitely recommend the Tom Yum noodle soup and Son Tam salad.

Love giggling squid. I came to Brighton on a staystaction and saw good reviews, ever since I’ve found 2 more that are local to me in Brentwood and chistlehurst and they are both lovely and had better decor. But this particular one was the best in terms of the food it was amazing, best squid I’ve ever had! Even the vegetables were delicious, the staff were friendly. The restaurant was at limited capacity due to COVID so seating was limited but still had a great time. When I visit Brighton again I would 100% go back. We had the lamb shank and sharing platter(The pictures don’t do it justice)
