I have had two previous deliveries from another restaurant without issue.

Not the cheapest place you will go to, but the food is tremendous. A big range of curries available from chicken, to lamb to prawns.

I first had it as a delivery, then found out it was a restaurant, so the options are always there to eat at home. Highly recommend it of you fancy a decent curry in town

Don't let this put you off though, it put me off for years until I was recommended to go by a friend, and I truly believe this is one of Brighton's best kept culinary secrets. My favourite starter was the fried fish fillets, which are fried in gram flour so are gluten free which is good for me! They also make their masala dosa from scratch, they soak the rice and lentils over night, then grind them in a stone grinder that they imported all the way from India! The most authentic tasting dosa I have ever had! The curries are all amazing, with plenty of unique dishes to choose from, the Lamb Shank curry is one of the best I have ever had. Definitely head to Eastern Eye if you haven't yet, for amazingly authentic curries, and some of the best Indian that is available in Brighton!

I guess the surroundings must explain why it always looks a bit dead - that and the not too welcoming tacky shop front, which also doesn't give a great view inside of the restaurant. But I'd really recommend you give it a go - in fact this is one of my Indian friend's favourite restaurant in Brighton! The decor is smart, modern and comfortable. The food is good value and seriously yummy - with a great fresh range from indulgent to light and healthy. They also do a big veggie selection. Also look out for the cheapie lunchtime deals advertised in the window. The only thing I wouldn't reccomend the place for is a romantic meal; it's often empty in there, so you'll feel a bit exposed and watched by the waiter. But the place is way more dead than it deserves to be - definitely great for a group as the restaurant gets some business and you get quick delicious food!

It took another 10 minutes to get the drinks (2 bottles of beer & a chili mojito). Ordered our food (1 veg, 2 meat Thalis) which then took almost an hour. When it came the food was sadly mediocre. Flavour was lacking (how that's possible with a curry I don't know), my wife who is Indian almost asked for salt (but couldn't find a server). Once we finished eating the server was nowhere to be found. Ended up going and finding a different server to pay the bill. Positives: good room, ice cold beer. Maybe an off day but with so many choices out there, we won't be back.

We sat at the front of the restaurant and there was live music being played on the piano. We very much enjoyed the music but the staff also asked us if we were happy with the volume and where we were sat which was much appreciated. The food was delicious, authentic Indian, not greasy, and not a korma insight. We had a few items from the street food menu and a main, the waiter explained what everything was and the various dips when they were served. They also provide extensive gluten, vegan and dairy free dishes, all of which are clearly displayed on the menu. I know they've received several restaurant awards and frequently feature in Brighton's top 10 restaurants so I'd definitely recommend booking ahead. I just wish I'd remembered to take some pictures!

For dinner, I sat at the communal table and ordered the Set Menu (Veg), which started with a huge platter of pappadum along with pickled onions and three different types of chutneys/jams. Then there was the Chilli Pickle Cornflake Mix, a reinvented version of "Bombay mix" containing cornflakes, lentils, peanuts, chickpeas, flaked rice, cashews, pecans, raisins, and more! This was so crunchy and delicious that I even asked to take the rest home after the meal! On the waiter's recommendation, I tried the pani puri for my appetizer, a typical Indian street food made of puri (a deep-fried puff) filled with potato, chickpeas, and chutney--it also came with a tamarind water on the side, which you poured into the puris before eating. While this was an interesting dish, there was very little flavor to the little puffs, and I thought these was skippable. For my main, I chose the Punjabi Aubergine Curry, made with soft pieces of eggplant in a sauce of tamarind, coconut, and peanuts. It came with a cucumber/tomato/red onion salad and a huge, fresh piece of onion roti on the side. The onion roti was pure perfection--the edges were puffy and chewy, while the inner part was thin and crispy; it had a nice nutty flavor from the whole wheat flour and was the perfect vessel for dunking in the curry! Overall a decent dish, but the flavors and spices were definitely toned down, and the sauce had a more sweet/mild flavorful than other Indian curries I've had.
