Authentic Bangladesh food, made lovingly in this basic offbeat place. Amazing vegan mega tali, and gluten free.
Incredible and authentic Bangladeshi food (looking at other reviews - it's not indian!) We lived in Bangladesh 5 years and this reminds us of our second home. Hugely recommend the thalis - especially if you do a pre-order for the family sized ones (pictured) - unbelievable! Incredible vegetarian and vegan options. The owners are wonderful and do lots of charity events which are well worth going to. It's also BYOB! We go very regularly!
Our favourite South Asian food place in Brighton. Always super freshly homemade and delicious. They also do great charity work with a school in Bangladesh. The new fish thali is a winner. It's all very reasonable priced, and the people who run it are super friendly. A warm welcoming atmosphere, and a nicely decorated place, with paintings of the school, and pictures from Bangladesh. Pictures are of takeaway, due to lockdown you can't eat in at the moment, but there is a table outside, which is a nice place to watch the world go by.
We went in on Monday for a free curry (for students) and I am hooked! The people running Tun Tun’s are so friendly, as soon as we walked in they greeted us with a smile and asked whether we’d like “veg, vegan or meat?” I went for the chicken curry. It was still hot when we got home to eat it. Considering it was free food, it was absolutely delicious. Lots of chicken, lentils and veg. Exactly what I needed on a gloomy Monday evening. I will definitely be back to try more of their foods. They also do a 5 deal for students.
What a local gem! Some of the homeliest, tastiest food I've had in some time. Wonderful, kind and accommodating staff! No doubt we will be back soon, and will be spreading the word about this brilliant restaurant!
such a lovely restaurant I feel so lucky to have found! the staff are so kind, friendly and generous, the food is absolutely delicious and so well pricedloads of books in the restaurant too and overall a wholesome vibe. a new favourite for me and my partner for sure, loads of vegan options!!
If you want to try Bengali (and/or Indian) food in Brighton just come here. Hands down the best Bengali food you will eat away from home. Amazing food, hospitality and warmth of the owner making it a homely atmosphere. We tried a full five course meal. Be it the vegetarian dishes, fish dishes, chicken or Biriyani the tastes are authentic and amazing. Highly recommended.
Great selection of the Bangladeshi food. We had enjoyed the newly launched buffet menu. Very tasty curries ranges from meat, fish and vegan options available too.
