Since we opened at the end of 2001, we have received many positive reviews from local, national and international publications. We are listed in virtually every on-line and printed guide for Brighton and all major national restaurant guides.

Latest Homes - Andrew Kaye

"Sam's of Brighton took over Paston Place and didn't look back, so the decision to re-brand the original at Sevendials makes total sense."

Comments from outside catering client  - Jemima Stiles J RP

"At short notice, Sam stepped calmly into the breach and ensured none of my guests went home hungry. Generous quantities of fresh, immaculate and well-judged canapés arrived as promised, turning a drama into a drinks party. Every last one went and they prompted many compliments, especially for the wonderfully rare roast beef which even a hitherto vegetarian guest couldn’t resist. Everyone went home thinking I have a touch of Nigella about me, when the truth is I am just fortunate enough to know Sam’s number."

The Observer - Jay Rayner

"The last Resort- Chef Sam Metcalfe has raised his game and created a restaurant to be proud of. But, wonders Jay Rayner, is Sevendials too good for the people of Brighton."

TopTable - Independent Reviews

"Excellent meal, the Seven Dials never disappoints. 3 courses for £21 was brilliant value and there were plenty of options to choose from. Will definitely be going again soon!"

Open Table - Independent Reviews

"An excellent meal. Have been before to the Dials, but only at lunchtime as used to work fairly nearby. This was a fabulous meal, perfectly cooked and presented and special mention should also go to a very reasonable wine list in relation to the quality of the wine. One of the best."

Latest Homes - Kids Food Reviews

We all tasted each other’s food and everyone liked it all. Rae gave her roquette salad to Mum but the plates were all clean by the end. We all thoroughly enjoyed our main courses. It was really delicious. Even the courgettes were surprisingly good
