Our story

Persian tradition, cooked over charcoal

Fanoos means lantern — a symbol of welcome. Our kitchen brings authentic Middle Eastern and Persian flavours to Brighton & Hove, from saffron marinated kebabs grilled over open charcoal to slow simmered herb stews that take a full day to build.

Every dish is freshly prepared to order using ingredients chosen that morning: herbs by the bunch, barberries and dried limes, lamb trimmed in house and rice steamed the traditional way for a golden tahdig crust.

You'll find us on Station Road in Portslade, where the same food is served across the dining room and packed for takeaway — with the hospitality that keeps our neighbours coming back.

Fantastic amazing tasty food, lamb chops, superb rice with dressed salad.

We had the chef's specials, a whole poussin, lamb shanks and grilled kebabs.

Really lovely little place, food and service was fab.
