“Amazing restaurant!!”
Review of Small World Tapas

Small World Tapas
Ranked #1 of 337 Restaurants in Torquay
Certificate of Excellence
Price range: £15 - £60
Description: Small World is a dream in a pocket size. Our reserved but family atmosphere restaurant is one of the fewest places in Torquay where you can share absolutely everything. Because sharing is loving. And we love food. Quiet place where you can also peek at the kitchen while the Chef is cooking worldwide tapas. Not only Spanish, but from all around the world. We change the menu very often to offer you the best of every country. And if you feel like drinking a country as well we have a selection of wines, local beers, spirits and cocktails. We also have Free Wifi. We are not a chain. We are independent. We are FoodLovers

One of the best restaurants in Torbay, lovely friendly atmosphere and great service from Sara. The food we tried was absolutely amazing, presented very nicely and the flavours were definitely there! The mystery egg box and the "olive" were fun and creative which added a nice touch to the evening. Kevin is a very inventive chef and definitely knows what he's doing when it comes to food!. 100% worth the visit would be a shame to miss out.

We went to Small World on a quiet Tuesday night, ourselves and one other table.
Whilst we had great service we never felt either rushed or pressured until we came to leave when the waitress delayed us to try an extra treat from the chef, Kevin.
Like everything else served to us that night it was a delicious.
Two of us shared 4 main Tapas style dishes and we each had a desert and a bottle of wine.
It was just a shame that we were unable to try everything on the menu as it was all intiguing and tempting.
When we go back to Torquay I know where we will be heading for.
Great waitress, great chef, and fantastic food.

This eating experience is not in the most fashionable part of Torquay, but far exceeds any expectations you may initially have from outside; please do not let it put you off! The food and service were second to none and yes those coconut prawns were so delicious. A great bottle of wine to compliment the food and you are in for a real treat. I am just so sorry that it is not closer to where we live. I strongly suggest that you visit as quick as you can to enjoy their wonderful food.

Beautiful food in a lovely small nicely decorated restaurant. The selection of tapas is lovely... the coconut prawns were amazing and the manchego foam delicious. The staff were so helpful and attentive. All in all a wonderful lunch
