lovely food and friendly service. Went on a Tuesday, the atmosphere was great and there were 2-4-1 on certain tapas dishes too - highly recommended!
The food was excellent and the service attentive and friendly. It seemed odd that they didn’t have bottled still or sparkling water but other than that great
A visit to this place is a must! Great food and great service!
Interesting food and lovely staff. Would definitely recommend this restaurant
Visiting Brighton for the weekend with a first visit to Circo. Great service and staff were helpful in explaining the menu. Food was excellent. A modern twist on tapas full of bold flavours. Would definitely go back again!
The food was delicious and the service very friendly. I would highly recommend, we will come back. It’s tapas but a bit fancy (but also good value!!!)
Lovely small family tapas restaurant Shrimp was fabulous and lively padora peppers Little way out of the town centre but we'll worth making the trip
Really lovely twist on traditional tapas, cold beer and a none too shabby red - loved it. Not the worst way to spend a Tuesday evening!
Food is great, service is superb and friendly, today I was there and I couldn’t ask for anything better when I heard a lady asking for the Wi-fi to give a bad review because they didn’t have tea... sorry, costa is just around the corner, not a good reason to give a bad review to a good restaurant
As always the food was great, the service was great and Marie is a pleasure. I will definitely be back for the churros very soon.
Lovely little restaurant with very tasty food and a warm welcome. Great mix of small plate Spanish dishes with an inventive Asian twist. We’ll be back!
Wonderful warm welcome from the host and chefs who helped us choose a gorgeous wine to enjoy with the plethora of dishes we ordered! I will be going back to taste the rest of the menu!
The food was excellent, but they rannouy of 4 out of 6 of their meat dishes . The atmosphere wasn't the same as when the male manager ran the place. And then card machine to pay wasn't working. Polite enough staff but not exactly friendly.
The most amazing food I think I have ever experienced! Every tapas was superb and the presentation was stunning. Fantastic service to top it off
It was my second time in Circo and I really enjoyed it again. The dishes were very tasty and nicely presented. It is not cheap there, but worth every penny.
What a great find! A Fabulous small restaurant with a great vibe and super beautiful and tasty food, which isn’t ridiculously priced. Would highly recommend for couples or simply catching up friends.
Had a fantastic evening catching up with old friends at Circo. The food was stunning - from the obligatory padron peppers right through to an amazing chocolate avocado pudding! Excellent service throughout. Circo is a gem of a local restaurant.
Lovely food, wonderfully executed. Sadly out of the cheaper white Rioja and the Patatas Bombas are rather boring. But the rest is incredible - food and not least, sherry!
I've been many times to Circo, such great food every time and definitely worth trying if you have never been. Small venue so essential to book.
Brilliant atmosphere and fantastic staff, we were welcomed and treated so well and personally. Really enjoyable evening in an intimate restaurant. Best food in Brighton.
Excellent and friendly service, brilliant tasty food, all round great night (plus the music was fantastic). Highly recommended - will definitely visit again <3 <3
Poorly seasoned food Very nice quality produce Good menu Disappointing execution Lacked confidence in bold flavours It’s nice to see fusion but I think this missed the spot for me
Lovely meal. Food was amazing however calamari was a bit flat in flavour and could have done with a good squeeze of lemon or lime.
Amazing, so lively and fun. I always recommend it to everyone around me. For us the best place in Brighton for delicious food and brilliant ambiance
Stunning food, fab maitre'd and awesome kitchen atmosphere - tiny but mighty restaurant smack bang in the middle of Brighton serving up little plates with some huge flavours and definite flare. Definitely worth you checking out
Amazing! We tried most things on the menu and was all presented beautifully. One or two we weren’t so keen on but I think this is down to differing tastes. Good atmosphere.
Lovely tapas food, with waiter going through menu with us. Liked the atmosphere and you can see chefs cooking. Waiter was a character! Definitely be back
Fantastic and interesting food. Staff were friendly and engaging. The chefs are enthusiastic about the food and made the experience even better. As a return visitor ill be back again and again!
Absolutely love this place and Dean keeps everyone entertained. The food is fabulous, the atmosphere crazy. Never had a bad meal and always love the food.
Amazing night, deano the hostess with the Mostess made the night, food is unreal and the whole night is a laugh I hear they are opening “ el pabellón” in town this place is gonna be the best restaurant in Brighton end of
I wish I'd found this place two years ago!! Food and wine were lovely - it's just I spent too much ;) Hope to go back soon.
Really cool,welcoming atmosphere! Service was bang on at all times! Made us laugh a lot,smile with the flavours and textures. The whole restaurant was rammed with happy people! Been meaning to try it since it opened,so gutted we waited this long! Moving near there soon,so will defo be a regular! Take a bow! 🙇♂️
Food is very tasty, very nicely presented, staff are amazing, very welcoming and friendly and the atmosphere is great. Will certainly be heading back very soon.
Really good service and delicious food. It is a tad on the pricey side but lovely, lively restaurant with a great play list to boot!
Faultless - welcoming staff, delicious innovative food, great sensibly priced wine, sociable atmosphere - this place has it all! Highly Recommended! We sat at the bar and enjoyed watching food being prepared.
Great food. Out of the 8 dishes, 6 were great, 2 were not quite there. That's a good score! Lovely atmosphere. Music is a bit loud, which makes conversation a bit hard. Will return!
Our second time here and every bit as good as the first. The food is exceptional - creative and delicious. The desserts in particular were incredible - couldn't get enough of that light lemony sponge! Wine list is very well selected and absolutely great service - we'll definitely be back.
Was an amazing night! delicious food, staff were so funny and attentive. Chef was great would highly recommend! can't wait to go back! 10/10 from us
Great food and staff and a fun experience. Good value for the quality of food. Sitting at the bar gives a good view of the kitchen.
A very good experience - the food and service was excellent but the restaurant was a little small and maybe needed slightly better seating - but overall 5 stars
Lovely relaxed atmosphere with beautifully flavoured contrasting tapas. We chose well - a great mix of vegetable, fish, and meat (including gorgeous wild boar). Really warm and efficient service combining fun and professionalism. A special find.
Love this place, service is on point and the food is as great to look at as it is to eat. A real gem on the Brighton restaurant scene.
It is one of the best places in Brighton..The food is an experience for anybody..the service was very polite and they explained us how this restaurant works thus make us easier our order ..you have to visit this restaurant as soon as possible!!
Excellent staff, very friendly and chatty. Amazing food, one of the best restaurants I’ve been to, unpretentious, great atmosphere, lovely decor and music, a great experience overall, I will definitely go back !
Circo is a buzzy yet intimate small-plates, open-kitchen restaurant run by a team that delivers on creativity, taste and attentive service! A wonderful night. Thank you!
Delicious, unique dishes with incredible ingredient combinations that work, freshly prepared and cooked in front of you. Friendly, attentive staff and great atmosphere. Not to be missed.
Fantastic and unusual food, made to order, it's not the usual tapas. Varied selection on the menu. Small and busy, but friendly and helpful service.
Food was amazing as always, the service attentive and great fun.
