The service was very good and the food even better. They bring a tray of fish to show you what is fresh and on offer that day and explain how each type of fish is cooked and served. All four of our party ordered different dishes and all were very good.

We had 2 absolutely amazing meals here and will definitely be back! Fantastic fresh food and lovely atmosphere. We had window tables over looking the sea both times. I can't recommend it enough. FANTASTIC value for money too. We felt very relaxed and at no point were we made t feel rushed. We have been there a few times before... More

We booked late and just got in for Friday dinner 7pm. A lovely meal with decent portions and very good quality fish. Shared a crab salad then each had a main course with sides and then dessert. With a good bottle of Australian white the bill came to a reasonable £83.

No. 7 turned out to be our favourite restaurant experience of our stay in Torquay. We had the 3 fish special: monkfish; cod & john dorey, all cooked differently but each superb. The staff are quirky (shorts with ties) but very knowledgable and we loved the way they brought samples of the menu to our table and explained the way... More

Wow - we were not disappointed. We'd read previous reviews on TA and really wanted to try this place. We managed to get a table for 9.00pm and, after waiting for about 8 minutes with an aperitif we were shown to our table. The place has a wonderful buzzy / bistro atmosphere. The staff are all professional, friendly and knowledgeable... More

We once again had a fantastic meal here. Wouldn't dream of visiting Torquay and not eating here.Yes it's expensive but for quality it can't be beaten. Will be back when we next visit Torquay.

My husband and I have been going to the Number 7 for special occasions and the odd 'just because' for years now. Excellent every time. We always say we will try something different from their menu, before both opting for their 'Tempura Special' every time! 3 different types of fish, plus tiger prawns in a fantastic light tempura batter, very...
