The Little Fish Market Restaurant, Hove

From Fishmongers to a Fish Restaurant of a Fine Pedigree

The Little Fish Market restaurant in Hove is a brand new addition to the Brighton and Hove restaurant scene and one which we are very excited about.

If you time to have a look at a few reviews online,  you will see this restaurant described using words like: stunning, fantastic, superb, perfection, tip top and much more..

The Little Fish Market restaurant is about fine food, good value and no stuffiness.

Presenting you with head chef and owner Duncan Ray (Pennyhill Park Hotel (3 AA Rosettes) – Bagshot, Fat Duck – Bray and the Five Halls in the Cotswold’s) you can see that there is potential for greatness from this new restaurant.

Where else can you find a restaurant in Brighton and Hove with such an enviable track record -  where the head chef has been ensconced in Michelin stars and the CV is just full of excellent cooking?

Let us set the scene for you.

The Little Fish Market isn’t complicated in any way, the menu is simple, the decor is of neutral palette, the lines are clean and it is positioned in a very bright open space with two large windows which frame the venue either side.

The restaurant is positioned parallel to Waterloo street, right next to the Old Market Theatre on a street called Upper Market Street – Just round the corner from the Conqueror pub if you know it. Have a look at the map on this page for further information.

Think simplicity calmness, a friendly team of professionals and food of the highest order.

The food clearly has a massive sustainable fish focus (of course) though there are good meat alternatives.

Duncan Ray is also the only resident chef who will be serving you for your dinner and his approach is all about the attention to detail.

Duncan prepares just a small amount of covers/ dinners on a given evening – perhaps only for 20 people.

So this type of dining experience is all about the quality, it is about being the hands of a very capable chef and it will undoubtedly be an experience to savour.

The truth is that, this restaurant is making a stir in Brighton and Hove already. It is attracting foodies from far and wide already, plus it is already commanding a busy weekend trade so please book in advance so you can make sure you get a table.

Sample starter dishes include a crab risotto and a salad of smoked trout. Maincourses include Hake, Seabass and thornback Ray Pork belly. Please note, this is a cash only restaurant and all the food is all hand-cooked to order so you are guaranteed everything extremely fresh.

Check with the restaurant about whether BYO is available and watch this space as we reveal their wine list in the near future. the Little Fish Restaurant is also open for Sunday Fish Roasts where 2 courses are £18 and 3 courses are £22.

We look forward to your feedback!
