   We have been to Botanique twice now and each time the servers were incredible attentive, the food delicious, and the drinks selection amazing. We will 100% be coming again! The innovative and seasonal menu never disappoints, the chef truly knows how to make a vegetable shine. Highly recommend this wonderful place

   Staff were excellent and very friendly. Service was great. The food was awful, went there for an anniversary dinner and ordered almost everything on the menu. There was not 1 dish that was nice. It wasn’t just me that thought it, me and my partner both thought all the food was bland and left a weird aftertaste in your mouth. Neither of us are fussy eaters either. We had high hopes as we recently ate at Food For Friends and it was incredible, this was a huge disappointment. Total bill was over £100 and I left there feeling extremely unsatisfied.

   Delicious dishes and very attentive and pleasant staff. Not the cheapest and portion size is ‘fine dining’ at its best. Would’ve loved some bread to mop up the delicious sauces! I’ll go again though.

   Went to Botanique for brunch last Saturday. Can safely say in 46 years of living this was the best brunch I’ve ever had. I don’t normally write reviews but felt compelled to after this gastro spectacular. We started with the rosemary and truffle polenta, the accompanying dips were incredible. However the 3 brunch plates we ordered between us (no judgement please) were incredible. Wild mushroom on focaccia with sunflower ricotta was a delight. Fresh and bursting with umami richness. Next the Benedict, with silky smooth hollandaise, smoked aubergine rusher, crispy kale and avocado was insane. Finally the pancakes which the hostess kindly split into two bowls. Wow. These pancakes were phenomenal, with maple, fruit compote, fresh strawberries, coconut yoghurt and almond brittle. Would highly recommend. This is simply what all other vegan brunches aspire to.

   Thoroughly enjoyed the celeriac and mooli, they were delicious. However disappointed with the aubergine main and found the “crème brûlée” unpleasant. Service very friendly, however had to wait a very long time for main without any communication. For the price point was expecting more consistency with the food and waiting time.

   I was looking for a plant-based brunch so that I could have a catch up with my daughter. The food was delicious. The service was exceptional; warm, friendly and made excellent recommendations.

    Botanique is a vegan restaurant, and as i am not vegan, i do not consider myself 'qualified' to offer an opinion on the quality of the food. Instead, i will offer some observations, which may or may not be relevant to prospective visitors to this restaurant. The restaurant itself is very nice and the stuff were helpful and friendly. But the first thing that struck me, was the very limited menu. It literally only listed two options for the main course. Secondly, i thought that the price of drinks was very steep indeed. For example, a bottle of Prosecco was listed a £48 which to me seems excessive. Now for all i know, £48 may well be the going restaurant price for Prosecco in Brighton, as indeed might be such a limited menu in vegan restaurant's but it just seemed a little odd to me.
