  “Had lobster here. Was absolutely delicious, one of the best meals I've ever eaten. The chips and salad were brilliant too. Amazing service and atmosphere and great to have a cocktail in the 'bit on the side ' next door. Thoroughly recommended.”

  “Great food, but service was slower than expected We visited Ollie’s after it was recommended by a member of staff at our hotel as a good place for steak, and overall we had a really enjoyable meal. The location was convenient for us and not far from our hotel. The food itself was excellent. We had the Chateaubriand with two sauces, Asian cabbage, green vegetables, pork belly and fries. The steak was cooked perfectly and everything was really tasty. The main downside was the service. There was a large stag group in the restaurant which seemed to take up a lot of the server’s attention, and unfortunately we waited over an hour for our food. The staff were very apologetic and kindly offered us a drink on the house to make up for the delay, which we appreciated. The only issue was that by the time the food arrived, my partner had gone well past the point of being hungry and had actually lost his appetite\! We ended up taking some of the food away with us. The staff themselves were lovely…friendly, professional and very presentable, so it didn’t feel like a lack of effort from them. It seemed more like the restaurant was struggling to keep up with the particularly large group that evening. There’s also a cocktail bar attached to the restaurant, which was a nice addition. We had a drink before the meal as we arrived early. Their house champagne at £14 a glass, was very reasonable and was thoroughly enjoyed. As it was my birthday, they also brought out a little birthday plate free of charge, which was a really sweet touch and appreciated. So, while the service was much slower than we’d have liked, the food was excellent, the staff were friendly and the little touches made it a good evening overall. We’d happily return, hopefully on a quieter night!”

  “The food was absolutely delicious. Service was a little slow at first as we seemed to have been forgotten, but one of the ladies quickly turned things around and took great care of us. We really enjoyed our meal and would definitely come back.”

  “Decided to book for our 20th wedding anniversary, Ollie’s is one of those places we kept meaning to try but had never gotten around to - I wish we had gone sooner! It was easy enough to reserve the table online & upon arrival we had cocktails in the adjacent bar which were really refreshing. The restaurant itself is quite pleasant and the staff are all so super friendly and efficient. We decided to go for the starter & main course for £30 & a bottle of Malbec. When looking at the normal menu prices the £30 is outstanding value. We had scallops & belly pork to start with the flat iron steak for mains. Portion sizes were perfect and the starters were delicious, the steak though, WOW. I imagined it was going to be just a small piece but no ! A generous sized steak that had to be one of the most flavoursome, tender steaks I’ve ever had (and I’ve had a few over the years!). Our special meal was topped by a lovely gesture from the restaurant which really made us smile. If you’re looking for a decent well priced meal then you can’t go wrong especially on their Wednesday special - their steak night also caught my eye so will be returning to try that out soon. For everyone in Ollie’s, thank you for making our evening really memorable - it meant a lot 🙌”

  “We chose Ollies to celebrate our 25th Wedding anniversary while visiting Torquay. We struggled to book online but their sister restaurant helped out big time and called us back with a booking for that evening, despite being obviously busy. From the start the service was brilliant, especially the young chap that was looking after us. We had the Steak, both cooked to different times but done perfectly, lovely fries, mash and seasonal veg. We did not want any pudding as we were stuffed, they did bring out a special treat that was a lush touch. The whole experience added to the memories of our special day. Thank you to all of the team.”

  “Absolutely incredible evening at Ollie’s! From the moment we arrived the atmosphere was warm, stylish and welcoming. A real vibe. The highlight of the night had to be Ebony’s cocktails – each one was beautifully balanced, creative and genuinely some of the best cocktails we’ve had in a long time. You can tell real care and skill goes into every drink that Ebony mixes and her passion really shines through. I can highly recommend The Cloudy Apple. For our meal we shared the Chateaubriand for two and it was perfection. Cooked exactly as requested, incredibly tender and full of flavour, with sides that complemented it perfectly. It was one of those meals where every bite just reminds you why you love great food and excellent service. Amazing drinks, outstanding food and fantastic service all round. Ollie’s is an absolute gem and we’ll definitely be back soon! 🍸🥩”

  “A fantastic dining experience where we were made to feel like family. The bar adjacent to the restaurant did the most delicious cocktails for a pre-dinner tipple. Everything we ordered seemed to have a unique flair to it. The chefs made a point of presenting the steaks to us before cooking which was very special. We would come again in a heartbeat !”

  “Had the 3 course for £29 Sunday menu. I paid £6 extra for the turkey pie which wasn't worth it to be honest. It was very tasty but not worth the upgrade. Portion sizes were very generous and had the jaffa cake sundae for dessert which was amazing. Staff were very good and leaving a tip was easily justified. Can't wait to go back!”

  “We had a really delicious steak here. Chateaubriand with a bottle of San Constantino red wine. Everything cooked from fresh. Service was great, good wine, good vibes, just go there and try it yourself. Luca and Tess were amazing, nice and helpful. Thank you guys for an amazing experience to end our stay in Torquay.”
