Nanima Asian Kitchen & Café was a family-run, local, and independent establishment located in the heart of Kemptown, Brighton. It was known for its authentic Asian cuisine offered through a daily-changing selection of freshly-prepared food from across the region. The venue also functioned as a welcoming neighbourhood kitchen and café.
Customer feedback was overwhelmingly positive, praising the delicious food, warm and inviting atmosphere, and friendly owners, Nikki and Loni. Many highlighted the unique daily-changing menu, the quality of ingredients, and the reasonable pricing. Specific dishes like Laksa and Vietnamese Coffee received commendation. Some customers felt a strong sense of community and described it as a 'true gem.' However, one negative review mentioned feeling pressured by the owner, bland food that appeared reheated, and a less welcoming experience for the price paid.
Nanima Asian Kitchen & Café operated for six and a half years before closing down. It was known for its commitment to traditional and authentic Asian flavors, served in a relaxed, community-focused setting.
Given the daily-changing menu and café aspect, it was ideal for regular visits for lunch or dinner. The 'Supper club' mentioned in reviews suggests evenings were also popular.
