Orange Tree Torquay
The Orange Tree
An elegant restaurant within walking distance of the harbour, now run by Vittorio Melis, serving modern Italian and Mediterranean cuisine and tasting menus.
Located at 14–16 Parkhill Road, the restaurant was formerly a modern British and European restaurant run by the Wolf couple. It is now run by owner and head chef Vittorio Melis, who has shifted the menu to modern Italian and Mediterranean cooking using fresh local ingredients. It was named a TripAdvisor Travellers' Choice 2025. The tasting menu can be paired with wine. Reviews say the plating is as refined as art, though some find the prices high. It is ideal for an anniversary dinner, and advance booking is advised. It is about a 5-minute walk from the harbour.
