Rustico Neapolitan (Lewes) - (Near East Sussex, South East)

ST Third time here and just amazing. Simply one of the best meals Ive ever had and great to have somewhere I can really recommend. Staff, ambience, food, drinks and facilities all brilliant. Having seen previous reviews that knocked the fish and chips and the pork belly, we decided to risk it and see for ourselves and we couldnt disagree more. The Pork belly meal was flawless and the fish and chips were lovely. Some of the best chips weve ever had and the fish definitely wasnt all batter. Its debatable over how good the fish is but thats the personal preference, but it was very good. The Chicken Milanese was brilliant and we love the Jolly Ginger mocktails. Dessert wise, again, we thought they were excellent. I must say however the crumble isnt quite to my liking due to the cluster type of crumble, but again this is more personal preference, but definitely had enough filling inside though it is very hot, so I do recommend leaving it to cool down a bit first. We will definitely be back and so far everything has been very consistent and I would definitely recommend going and seeing for yourself.and if things arent to your liking, mention it at the time as I can assure you the food is very good and you may have just got unlucky.

Nick Case We had an absolutely brilliant meal here. The service was incredibly helpful and attentive with all aspects of the menu. We had 2 starters, 2 mains, 1 rice and 1 naan and left very satisfied and full. All was cooked very well and the flavours were delicious. Update 2024: Chaulas is incredible. Staff very knowledgeable and friendly on what is vegan and what isnt. All the food is cooked in sunflower oil, not ghee so the choice is very good. Completely separate vegetarian sections on the menu, and not just the usual 5-8 curries you get, some very interesting options. The curries all tasted fresh and left us full but not over-full. The roti and paratha were also excellent. Overall, this is probably the best Indian Ive visited in years. There was a great selection of vegetarian and vegan dishes, all labelled on the menu, and the staff were very helpful with any questions we had about the cooking of the dishes. Couldnt recommend more for a lovely meal!

Zara Burtonshaw We had the most amazing late lunch/early dinner at ASK Lewes. The team are so kind and considerate, always keeping everything clean with super speedy service. It’s a lovely place to eat with great atmosphere - we make quite a long journey to this one because it’s our favourite. Worth every penny!

Maggie Really fresh crisp vegetables in vegetarian options with delicious crunchy onions on top. Top quality.

H Taylor I have never been able to shake the nagging feeling that sushi could be improved solely by the addition of one thing, chips. Thank god I no longer have to wonder as Alex and Lilly have bravely answered the age old question: what if a sushi restaurant was also a chippy. Extremely happy to have found this unlikely yet superb establishment. Not only can its sushi compare with the best restaurant fare but its an honest to god proper chippy as well, down to the pickled eggs. The food speaks for itself and Alex and Lilly are as cordial as local businesses owners come. Go and see for yourself, I implore you.

Patrick Rego A party of 10 for breakfast this morning. Tasty food, quick service, and a welcoming atmosphere. Everything came out hot and well cooked. Great service, thanks Jordan!
