(Ardington Hotel , Steyne Gardens , West Sussex in Worthing, United Kingdom)

Indigo, Worthing’s only AA-awarded restaurant, is in the privately-owned Ardington Hotel. Set in an... Edwardian terrace, the hotel is just 100 yards from Worthing’s attractive pier and promenade and Indigo is on the ground floor overlooking Steyne Gardens. The restaurant features cool white walls and crisp white linen, softened with touches of blue. There’s a fixed-price menu that changes regularly, but if you’re going a al carte, kick off with chicken and walnut terrine with sweet pepper chutney. Follow this with breast of guinea fowl with wild mushroom sauce and mash or pan-fried scallops with ginger and fennel cream. The glazed prune and Armagnac tart is awesome, but if you don’t have much of a sweet tooth you can finish off with some excellent Sussex cheeses. Presentation is elaborate and service is swift and professional. Opening hours: Mon - Sun: 12pm - 2pm & 7pm - 10pm (last orders 8.45pm) [moreless]
