I normally don't write reviews but this place really deserve one.
I'm often around for work and when I can I would love a good Pizza and glass of wine and Cucina & Co in Brighton was just perfect.
The wood fire Pizza was absolutely on point, very tasty, light and perfectly cooked.
My Sangiovese wine was the best combination.
Very good welcoming service.
Highly recommended.
I'll see you next time guys! Well Done!
Good service and excellent food đź‘Źđź‘Ź
Excellent local pizza/pasta with friendly staff and a nice ambience serving delicious wood fired pizza, yet to try the pasta! Keep going back here.
Cucina and Co is a hearty local Italian in Brighton. Simple and delicious pizza and pasta, true Italian style!Â
Entree of cured meats and calamari. Cured meats are one of best I've had compared to other restaurants. Shaved fresh, the quality of the proscuitto is 5/5. The calamari was soooo delicious! Lightly fried and not heavy on your palette, perfectly paired with a light rocket salad.Â
Our favourite pizza is always the parma with fresh buffalo on top. I love it that they put a piece of fresh buffalo on each slice! They have seriously thought about good food engineering!!!! Favourite pasta for us is the linguini di mare. Light tomato based with fresh seafood. It's very delicious every visit!Â
Been back multiple times and it's always spot on. Very consistent.
The service is always excellent. Friendly, polite, genuine caring waiters and waitresses.Â
It's always so busy so make sure you book if you can!Â
Well done Cucina! Keep up the amazing work!
This smart casual pizzeria in Brighton combines excellent food with a pleasant, family friendly environment. Embodying that Italian notion that a good meal should be...

We travelled from the other side of the city to Cucina and Co in New Street, Brighton. It was well worth the trip for really authentic high quality Italian food and wine.
Frederico and the staff were very attentive throughout the evening, without being interfering. A fine balance which highlights their professionalism.
Rather than order from the menu, we accepted their offer to accept the chef’s suggestions.
We started with a small focaccio ( pizza base) of prosciutto, fig and strata burrata cheese. Really fresh and quality ingredients.
The other generous entree dish was an eggplant parmigiana. Perfectly cooked eggplant, tomato and light cheese sauce melted in your mouth.
Over the course of the meal, we had the following wines, all great value for the quality at $12 a glass. We started with a fresh, dry Prosecco ; Astoria Lounge Prosecco N/V ( Trevino).
We next had a glass of Rose. Collefrisio Rose Montepulciano 2016 ( Abruzzi). A very dry wine; perfect with the food.
I later had a glass of the more full bodied Elio Peronne Tasmorcan D’Asti Barbera ( Piemonte). Again, a really interesting wine. All these and others available by the glass or bottle. A great way to learn about Italian wines and regions.
The chef suggested Sphagetti Mare : Scallops, Prawns; Piccadilly tomatoes, Parsley and a small amount of pistachio which added some crunch. Really fresh ingredients and quality fish and pasta.
My partner had the Tiramisu, served in a glass jar. It was really light and subtle. I had the crisp cannelloni , filled with a light cream and fruit.
All the food is freshly made and rich in flavours so great to share with a friend.
There is a wonderful ambience at Cucina & Co. A number of regular, local customers were here too which is a great sign.
So if you want a special night of high quality fresh Italian food and interesting Italian wine, it is well worth coming to Cucinand Co from near or afar. It is a great place and is highly recommended.
Our sincere thanks to Peter and the venue for the invitation.

Cucina and Co is an authentic and delicious Italian restaurant with impeccable customer service. We started the meal off with the antipasto board which included a selection of cured meats, cheeses , olives and arancini which was lovely !
For mains we ordered the pappardelle with lamb and pork ragu , the seafood special ( which we substituted the gnocchi with fettucine ) and the focaccia with buffalo mozzarella, prosciutto , egg plant and tomato . The lamb ragu was slowed cooked to perfection , the sauce was immensely rich and tasted amazing with the perfectly cooked pasta. The seafood special was another stunning dish, there was a lot of prawns and we loved how the dish which had minimal ingredients let all the flavours shine.
The focaccia was another visually stunning dish and equally delicious, this was actually gigantic and the focaccia bread underneath was spectacular. We later then discovered the chef is actually from Naples ( home of the Pizza) – the amazing dough combined with the fresh ingredients made this dish a 10/19
Although we dined as guests of Cucina and Co , we realised at the end of the night the staff did not know this until we ended our meal. This impressed me even more as the customer service was 10/10 throughout the whole night . I drove home with a full belly and smile on my face that night
Thank you for having us!

Located in Brighton sits a humble Italian bar called Cucina Bar for those who wants pre-drinkies before heading across the road to Cucina & Co for some food. Spacious with fantastic staff, it’s definitely a great place for after work drinkies. Wine drinkers – the wine here is top notch and if you sit by the windows, you’ll definitely be people watching while you sip your little velvety drinkies.
Great spot! Pasta was perfect and pizza was as authentic as I have ever had. Try the fettuccine, not bad tho. The interior in here is very modern and they have such a lovely layout. It was so good I was lucky enough to take some home. The tiramisu was one of the best I’ve had. This was my first visit but we will be back.
Literally the most delicious pasta I can remember. Absolutely delicious, our new regular!
The staff is very kind and the pizza is exceptional. Both take away or dine in. Never disappointed
Best pizza in Brighton. No discussion.
Had a late night dinner on a Friday. Beautiful food, the seafood linguine had a very generous serving of seafood and pizza was so good we got one to take away as well!
If there is better pizza around here, I haven't found it. In the conversation for best pizza I've had including Gradi and multiple trips to Italy.
