Small World Restaurant and Tapas Bar — Restaurant in England

We use this place to wow our clients. From large corperate to small business owners, each (wish I could swear to emphasise here) love this place.

This IS the best Tapas, if not, best restaurant locally. A fine dining menu with a friendly, relaxed, yet special feel. They nail a multitude of cuisines, with each dish being the best variation of it i've tasted. Now i'm only in my (late) 20's, but our clients vary and all of which that have come here agree and never want to leave. Each time they come to visit us, we don't firstly look at agenda's, we look to see if we can get a seat here.

The chefs are excellent, but you don't always come back just because the food is great, which is why Sara and her team are the best at what they do. Sara makes everyone feel special and really knows & cares about her stuff. She deals with each situation perfectly and even when i've had to sit and cringe at situations, she spins it expertly, avoids any awkwardness and ends up making even the worst jokes seemingly brilliant.

You have the likes of the elephant/ other boujee' fine dining restaurants which when we have a client used to be first the options we'd think of, but now it's nothing other than here. The others have a pretensious aura and make lovely meals in a stale atmosphere, but not here as you can enjoy the occasion and company just as much as the amazing food.

My one and only critism is that it's now impossible to find another place to take our clients, which is why I returned with the same client on Thursday and they couldn't be happier.

I could write a lot more, but won't be a bore, so i'll end by saying thank you for keeping going. I first came to you after you recently opened, with my father and his spanish friend (a typical spanish bloke... a big headed chef, which your food is the first he did not critique). You were seemingly struggling and it even felt like you were close to giving up. We're all glad you...

Tapas with a little twist. We love our tapas restaurants but we've not come across one quite like this little gem. Whilst searching online we came across this place. The menu looked interesting with some unsual dishes. They also had a midweek offer of 2 tapas and 1 side for £20. Plus 2 for £14 cocktails. So we thought,lets give it a try and booked a table.

The restaurant is located in the town, about a ten minute walk from the hotel we were staying at. On arrival we were shown to our table in the window. Whilst deciding on the menu we ordered a couple of cocktails.

We had to kick off with the Bread Bag. Homemade bread served in a bag,which you have to rip open to release the smokey scent of roasted garlic and rosemary. Followed by Brixham scallops served with Spanish beef black pudding. Then grilled padron peppers hung on a tree with a side of allioli. The next dish was Asian brisket croque monsieur. That's not very Spanish is it? Slow cooked beef brisket marinated in an asian inspired sauce,sandwiched and fried in beef dripping with gruyere cheese served with a mushroom and marmalade dipping sauce. OMG.This was absolutely insane. The flavours were incredible. A knockout dish. After that a book was placed in front of us. We had totally forgot we had ordered the Book of meat - alicious. It's literally an anti-pasti book filled with some of the most delicious meats sliced fresh and placed in the pages.As you flick through,theres different delights from Spain,Italy and Devon. Served with homemade bread and oil. We finished with an affogato and coffee.

This was a tapas with a difference and a great find. Front of house Ollie was very charming and the chef dished out some exceptional food. We shall certainly return next time we are down this way and would urge anyone to give this small independent the support...

Transcendent experience. This place really goes above and beyond in its food, service, and atmosphere. Sarah, our waitress, was professional and engaging. She got you excited about the food.

The food itself was amazing. Expertly crafted, thoughtful, and delicious. We ordered five dishes: 1. Molassas glazed aubergine - it reminded me of a japanese tempura but the aubergine was sliced into thin chips and the batter was thicker, they were like heavenly fries coupled with a tangy sweetness. 2. Stuffed courgette flowers - we have to order these whenever we see them on a menu. So delicate, crisp batter with a cream cheese filling. Could have done with slightly more salt but the juicy tenderness of the courgette was there. 3. Sweet potato and coconut curry - served inside the coconut shell, and with fresh coconut on top, the curry had a rich deepness to its sauce and lovely textures from the vegetables and rice. 4. Miso glazed ribs - I ordered this because it looked mouth-watering on other people's tables. The sauce was superb. However, the meat was a tad dry. You can go really deep down the rib rabbit hole in preparation and cooking methods and since this isn't a bbq joint I'll give them a pass. If I was to go again I'd order the skewers or meatballs or pork bites instead. 5. 50/50 squid - a great idea to combine squid cooked two ways, drizzled with oil and dotted with garlic mayo crispy, juicy, brilliant.

The serving sizes were also surprisingly large for tapas. We took another meals worth home in takeaway....
