Sora

Sora sails into Marina, Brighton with an elegant pop-up takeover at Malmaison Brighton, bringing an exclusive Japanese restaurant, sushi and cocktail bar to the water’s edge.

In the kitchen, precision meets fire. Pristine sushi and sashimi are balanced by the charcoal allure of the robata, where wagyu sirloin meets caviar and chimichurri, and red prawns take on chilli, lime and ponzu miso butter.

The Sora signature sushi and sashimi plate captures the house style with salmon, tuna and a deft California roll, all about clean cuts, glistening rice and measured restraint.

Sharing is encouraged: charred edamame beans to wake the palate, shrimp crackers with a swipe of wasabi purée, then a gentle landing with mochi ice cream or a glossy chocolate crémeux folded with honeycomb and matcha.

Sora’s takeover brings poise and polish to the marina. Reserve a table, watch the lights dance on the water, and let the night drift deliciously your way.
