Bob Sugar is the best restaurant in Torquay for dinner, food was delicious!! People working there were welcoming and helpful. The only thing we didn't like was the communal unisex toilets. But we can't fault the food, staff or general vibe.. It was great.

Booked late, impressively they reached out to convey concern over my allergies but wanted to make it work. Restaurant was super busy for a Monday night, but the open window seat was perfect. Service was friendly, smiling despite the pressure of a full restaurant. Good food, tasty.
