Change of Venue - Edit
Still great food but just a takeaway venue now. No longer has much indoor seating, uses takeaway packaging only and offers a limited menu.

Great sushi burrito - Edit
We got the fully loaded and the hoisin duck burrito. Both were very good and filling. Also tried the inari.
Read moreFor the toddler we got a bowl with sushi rice, edamame and sea weed.
Restaurant is on the first floor of an oriental market. Entrance just next door to Hunglish. You have to climb some stairs before getting to the restaurant; not accessible.

Must go - Edit
Their sushi wraps are to die for. I first experienced their wraps whilst at a festival - and now every time I visit Brighton, this is a must stop location for a snack that is full of flavour - and so moreish. Light, but filling. Subtle, but mouth watering. Divine!

Yummy dinner - Edit
A lovely vegan restaurant in Brighton. It's nice to have healthy vegan food on offer. The burrito bowls were incredible, especially the mango mayonnaise! Delicious and filling, be sure to check this place if you're in Brighton.

Yum - Edit
Not much to say here, other than this place is superb. Nice atmosphere and casual layout, perfectly located in The Lanes.
Read moreWe're split on which burrito was nicer, the Fully Loaded or Hoisin "duck," but either way you're having a great time. The popcorn cauli is the perfect blend of crispy and not-too-greasy, and the mango mayo is sweetly delicious. The satay pockets (inari) that come with the bento are tasty too, with plenty of rice and peanuty satay sauce.
Come here, eat, and be extremely satisfied.
Pros: Yum, Nice staff, Quick service

Sushi Heaven! - Edit
We stayed in Brighton for a weekend and visited several popular vegan only restaurants and Happy Maki was the stand out winner! Food tasted really fresh, wholesome, and was just generally very tasty. Nice chill vibe and didn't have to wait too long. The bento box was great as you get a selection of menu items. Great for GF options too! Looking forward to coming back!

Would recommend this place to anyone. I had a nori burrito, which is so different to anything else! So healthy and tasty!
Read moreWould also highly recommend the salmon options. I'd never found a vegan one I'd liked, and the one my partner had was very tasty!
Lovely atmosphere, really relaxed and cute decor.
Lovely people working there. One of the staff gave me a taste of the ponso mango before I made my choice!
