Beautiful food

Gorgeous dishes, well presented, cocktails are especially fantastic and the Sushi platter is fun to share. Tempura mushrooms are the best mushrooms I've ever tasted

Amazing food

We shared 6 small plates. Each one was delicious, especially the karaage oyster mushrooms were outstanding. Very cosy restaurant and friendly service.

Japanese and vegan!

Worth the trek out of the centre of Brighton to find this great vegan Japanese restaurant. Lots of gluten free choices. A must when we visit Brighton.

Amazing

First of all the venue was beautiful, really nice interior and decoration with a lot of attention to detail. The food was soooo good, very nourishing and packed with flavour. Wish they had a place like this in Belgium, I would be a regular!

Amazing vegan food

Such a lovely restaurant and amazing food. Possibly my favourite restaurant in Brighton and my non-vegan partner loves it too!

Absolutely delicious

Absolutely delicious meal. Unlike anywhere else I’ve ever eaten and certainly nothing I could cook at home.
We ordered a large plate, a small plate and sushi between two of us which was an excellent portion. We enjoyed everything we ate, but particularly the fried oyster mushrooms!
I’m going to be thinking about this meal for a long time afterwards!

Just delicious

I have been coming here for a long time and it’s taken me a while to share it on here you must try this place!! Amazing food, tasty and innovative. The staff are super friendly and the set up with the trees and flowers against the modern interior is so lovely. The watermelon steak was dreamy and I have tried to recreate it time and time again. So this restaurant was very inspiring. I have recommended this place on repeat and all my friends have loved it

Eat here any chance you get

Just had possibly the best meal I've ever had. Definitely the best rice dish ever. Had the vegetable gyoza and the drunken rice and both were just delicious. Will be back here whenever I'm in Brighton

Pros: Delicious food , Friendly service, Relaxed setting

Great Demonstration of Quality Vegan Food

The service was great. The food looked like art, well balanced, great colours and bags and bags and bags, really, really big bags of flavour.

Go when you are in Brighton and support a vegan business rather than a business that does vegan food but still supports killing animals.

Deserves to be widely known!

This features in the Michelin Guide for reasons; elegant food, carefully crafted, subtle flavours. Enjoyed a heap of the small plates. Great puddings too. Superb staff. Great for all occasions but great for a special treat.

Pros: Amazing flavours , Diverse yet considered menu , Wonderful staff and atmosphere

Great flavours and presentation

Went as a group of 4 for a friends birthday where we had a couple of small plates and the sushi sharing platter to start (which was a good size for 4 people and would be great for 2 to share) with a selection of sauces and salad/ pickes accompanying it - the sushi was good and the tofu parcels were amazing! I had the Momoiro curry and between our table we had the Kiro curry and the stir fried noodles and they were all delicious! Shared the miso brownie to end and was a beautiful meal with a nice atmosphere and very friendly staff. Highly recommend! They said they have a new menu coming out soon too, so look forward to coming back to try it out

Pros: Fully vegan , Delicious food , Nice atmosphere

Beautiful restaurant

I feel so comfy and at home in this restaurant. The decor is calming, the seats are comfortable and the vibe is nice. The food and cocktails are delicious, and reasonable value considering the high-end feel and Michelin star.

Ok

Perhaps I ordered badly but my meal was disappointing. Just not that flavourful. I wasn’t expecting so much of it to be deep fried. I would give them another try if I’m in Brighton again.

Pros: Vegan Japanese restaurant

Cons: Wasn’t very tasty

Absolutely wonderful

We had a delightful experience at Kusaki. The food, cocktails and service were all excellent. It’s also a really lovely atmosphere and ambiance.

The owner is brilliant and his service exceptional.
