Some of the best food I’ve had in Brighton since I moved here for uni. Super close to the hospital too so perfect for students!!

My husband has be working close to this place and said after walking by a few times and smelling the incredible food, he had to have lunch there. He raved about it so much, and said we had to go for dinner. So we did, and my god I could agree more with how delicious the food was.Very welcoming staff that were very attentive and friendly. We had a wonderful evening and will definitely be back with friends! Thanks so much guys. Steph & Dan.

The food at Nanima's is fantastic and Lonnie and Nicky are awesome. We liked the food so much we asked them to cater a 100 person two-day event in Brighton and the food went down a storm. If you love fresh but hearty curry and noodle dishes then book them for your next event!

Beautiful food. Beautiful service.

When we visited Brighton, we had a wonderful lunch at Nanima's. It was the kind of food your friend's grandmother treats you to, too, with her traditional recipe. Great homey flavours from someone who understands the subtly that species transforming everyday ingredients. It was all very good, and we all felt grateful we were in the hands of someone who really cared about excellent food.

Great tasting menu. Menu changes everyday, showcasing different asian cuisines. Staff are friendly and accommodating. The place is cute and cozy. They don't shut early, so you can go after work and buy food (if still available as it usually sells out fast). They have an amazing selection of pastries too. The pistachio cruffin (croissant muffin) is heavenly! Can definitely recommend. They offer discount to NHS staff too.

This was our first visit to Nanima but we felt so welcome it was like eating with friends in their home.Lonnie showed us the amazing menu which changes daily.We went soup starters, one Thai and one Japanese. Mains were stuffed pepper and salmon with noodles, rice and salads with a zingy fresh lemonade. We finished with chai and Indian sweets.The food was authentic, full of exciting flavours and prepared with love.The atmosphere was friendly and their approach is sustainable. There is no waste and people bring in containers to fill and takeaway. We'll definitely be back for more!Parking: If you have a blue badge there are double yellow lines you can park on outside.

This is my favourite place where I like to eat at locally. Its food is consistently truly delicious and such excellent value. The service is always warm and friendly. If you’ve not yet been, do pop in to .treat yourself- you certainly won’t be disappointed.

If your looking for a cozy friendly place with good healthy food and plenty of appetising options you won’t do better than a visit to Nanima. If you fancy it you can just pop in for a cold one and a chat. This is my ‘go to’ place in Kemptown. I highly recommend it.
I love the hospitality of this lovely family and their restaurant set in the heart of Kemp Town. Nothing is too much trouble for them and they are always very friendly and welcoming. The food is delish, well thought out; all carefully and lovingly prepared.They hosted my special 70th birthday and my granddaughter's 20th birthday. I was so impressed with the food, the service and the ambience that I didn't hesitate to attend a pop-up event which they hosted. I wasn't disappointed there either!It will always be my go-to restaurant where I can meet with friends and I will certainly go back for future birthdays and celebrations.

Wow!What a wonderful place.I’d been recommended to try Nanima by so many people and finally did so today. From the moment we entered we were made to feel welcome. The place was fairly busy but in a vibey not stressful way.The guy at the counter, presumably the husband in what is a genuinely family run restaurant, patiently talked us through all the day’s dishes. Took us a while to decide! We’re both vegetarian and the choices all looked delicious. The food came quickly, as well the homemade lemonade and peach iced tea!! Everything was absolutely fantastic. Full of flavour, fresh and healthy. And generous portions, at very reasonable prices. The place is lovely, full of plants and great music. It was just such a rare pleasure to be hosted as guests and not treated as simply paying customers to never see again. We will definitely be regulars now.

The man behind the counter is scary. The reply to low reviews so ludicrously defensive and I'm unsuprised after my encounter. God knows what this will bring down on my head.We were reading the menuBehind the counter when we came in.The man behind the counter was explaining the menu to people in front of us, then turned to us and said beligerantly " I will be with you in a moment" thinking we were looking at him rather than the menu. This man is a liability to the place. I think he's the owner. Food was mainly undercooked veg. Never have I been scared to go into a Cafe, having lived here for forty years but I would never go in there again.

We visited Nanima feeling tired and over hungry, but left feeling warm, taken care of and very well fed! Our tom yum was absolutely delicious and we were savouring every mouthful of the chocolate orange cake. I felt as if we were being welcomed into a family home and really appreciated the time that was taken to explain the different food options available on the day. I cannot recommend this cafe enough, we'll definitely be coming back!
