The Terraces (Brighton) Revisited
Eva and I revisited The Terraces on Saturday evening, and had a splendid meal.
My chorizo and poached egg starter was sublime, and my rack of lamb tender, succulent and unctuous.
Eva's fish, chips and mushy peas were cooked to perfection.
The service was first class, and very friendly. We were offered blankets when the wind became chilly, and were found a table inside when the elements finally defeated us without any fuss.
There was even a free firework display by the pier (not laid on by the restaurant) that topped the evening off.
I wish the new manager (who started a couple of weeks ago) all the very best.
Well worth visiting!

The Terraces
Restaurant
The Terraces Bar and Grill
Madeira Drive
Brighton
BN2 1PS
Phone: 01273 545 250

Overview
Eva and I decided to treat ourselves to an alfresco lunch on the seafront last week, and chose The Terraces.
The Terraces is an art deco bar and grill that serves Mediterranean and British food.
Ambience
The Terraces is a glass fronted two storey art deco rotund bar and grill, facing the seafront.
The decoration is modern, minimalist and cheerful, with an open fire inside for the winter, and decking outside for dining and drinking alfresco in the summer months.
We dined outside facing the sea, superb weather and superb views!
Menu
The Terraces offers a selection of Mediterranean and British dishes; eg bruschetta, fishcakes, Chorizo on sweet potato, Mezze, steak, pasta and fish and chips. On Sundays they also offer traditional roasts.
Service
The service was very friendly, cheerful and efficient. Nothing was too much trouble, and the jug of Pimms prepared by the staff was by far the best (wrt generosity of fresh fruit etc) that I have had when dining out.
Food
I opted for the rib eye steak, eschewing the pepper sauce for two fried eggs instead.
The steak was a decent piece of meat (cooked medium rare), and was tender and succulent. Ideally complemented by my two eggs and fries.
Eva opted for the rope grown mussels in white wine sauce. These were superb, and were served in an amusing large earthenware pot that resembled a flower pot.
A great lunch!
The bill (including a jug of Pimms, a pint and two Irish coffees) came to around £60.
Overall Opinion
We really enjoyed the lunch and liked The Terraces very much. I guarantee that we will return.
