Tier Achieved:
Clean. Reliable. Does the job.
The "lights out missionary" of food. Spotless kitchen, decent grub. Won't blow your mind, won't disappoint.
Pinocchio is a cozy little spot in Brighton where the set menu is a steal. I mean, who doesn't love a great value meal that keeps the wine flowing? π· The truffle mushroom risotto is a dreamy companion to your second bottle, making every bite feel like a hug from the inside. Staff like Phoebe are on point too; sheβs the kind of server who serves up smiles and knows just what to recommend. Just watch out for the pizzaβit's a hit or miss, and letβs just say, it wasnβt the star of the evening.
Overall, the vibe is chilled, and the food hits the spot, especially when youβre trying to impress your mates or enjoy a casual night out. But remember, if youβre expecting Michelin-starred pizza, you might want to rethink your choices. Still, itβs a solid choice if you fancy a night out without breaking the bank.
