Frommer's Review
This intimate, French-style bistro lies at Lisbourne Square, just off the main artery, Babbacombe Road. Torquay is not renowned for its dining, but this serious little restaurant is a bright note in a culinary wasteland. Families are among the regular patrons. The chef-owner, Antonia Rios, shops for the freshest of regional produce, when available, and serves locally caught fish and shellfish. The sauces that go with the fish are a harmonious match to the catch of the day. Tempting mains include poached lobster in garlic butter and a savory beef stroganoff laced with brandy and cream. A selection of vegetarian dishes is also available.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
