I help out at the house of Tormos in Orba occasionally, and I eat there often. I just love the whole experience. I say experience, as that is what it is, the food is great, but that’s only part of it, it’s the decoration, the artwork, the cheerful service, the ambience and the people you meet that all add up to a wonderful culinary experience. So if you want some thing special, I highly recommend this restaurant. My personal favourite is Friday night, Its so chilled and stylish. I had the Hake and it was amazing, I also recommend any of Michaels pasta dishes. The steaks are obscenely delicious. So often in Spain I find desserts a bit of a let down, but not here. I would go just for the Sticky Toffee Pudding.
It is a bit more expensive than your average Orba restaurant but you get so much more for the little extra you pay ….. and why not treat yourself once in a while . It’s also a great place for a business lunch on Monday if you want to impress anyone.

Simply great food and the hosts are really attentive and friendly. Wonderful surroundings tastefully decorated and great artwork.

What a hidden gem!.
Not much to see from the outside, but we gave it a go on a Friday night when most other places were already closed (!)
We were greeted by a lovely man who noted that my Spanish was not native and asked if I spoke English, as he was. We opted to sit outside in a nicely presented courtyard and he set our table up with a cloth, amenities and complimentary fizz!
We had a look over the menu and couldn't resist the tapas and glass of house wine offer at 12 Euros a head. The wine was pretty decent for a house and actually one of the better glasses we had drank on our whole trip. We thought that three small tapas each might not be enough so added a bruschetta to the mix.
How wrong we were, the portions were so generous that as soon as I saw them I knew I wouldn't finish my meal! Everything was cooked beautifully and to order, the spicy bravas/meatball sauce was so tasty and so much better than many of the traditional Spanish restaurants we had and have visited in Spain. Our server was very attentive, very friendly and it really felt like he loved his craft.
When it was time to clear away our defeat we had a brief chat with our server, Graham, who is one of the owners with his partner as the chef in the kitchen. We were so surprised it wasn't busier here as the food and ambience were top quality.
The cherry on the cake was that our bill was only 30 Euros, which is an absolute steal for what we had.
Well done chaps, if we are ever in the area again we will be sure to seek you out!

Such a fantastic restaurant and a real Gem for the village of Orba! Food is always plentiful, tasty and beautiful presented. The restaurant itself is stunning and the interior and ambiance is just class👌
Great menu choices with a nice tapas offer which is a favourite on a Friday night accompanied with great wine ,ideal for the summer evenings. They have a lovely courtyard at the rear of the building with nice tables and chairs and also tasteful decorated to complement the restaurant. The staff are so welcoming and the service is top notch!

My husband and I went to Tormos house today for the first time and it definitely won’t be the last . First class in every way .
The service was exceptional , we were served by a friendly and professional waiter .
We were greeted at the door and asked where we would prefer to sit . We chose the terrace which is very pretty and immediately given an ice cold glass of cava each . The set menu had a good amount of options but we both chose the seafood cocktail to start and the roast beef main course , then the traditional sherry trifle.
All courses were very tasty and plentiful and nicely presented . Coffee was also included as well as a carafe of wine .
All in all a lovely experience in a gorgeous environment . Thanks very much guys we will be back very soon .

It's quiet on a Monday lunchtime but very welcoming. Very little vegetarian options on the menu but Michael cooked up a huge plate of roast veg and homemade chips. I don't know why it wasn't on the menu. It was delicious.

Going to the Tormos House Orba for Sunday lunch is just a wonderful experience. Graeme and Michael are so welcoming along with their lovely staff and the food is fabulous and plentiful! The ambience is so lovely and I just couldn’t recommend it highly enough! It is my most favourite place to eat in the entire North Costa Blanca! A total hidden gem! ☺️
Sally Burrowd
First visit today with my husband and our 2 dogs, sat outside in the courtyard, absolutely beautiful setting, the food was amazing and plenty, the staff went above and beyond, so attentive and happy. Couldn't recommend to highly, absolutely fantastic value for money, will be returning regularly 😀
Dave Barker
A warm welcome everytime we visit this exquisite restaurant.
The varied menu has something to suit all palates and has different options each time we visit.
On entering the unassuming front door, you are led through to the rear garden, a real suntrap full of established specimen plants and charming features which resembles the secret gardens often found in the movies, you are served a glass of bubbles and berries or ice cold beer while you peruse the menu and place your order.
The dining room is beautifully decorated with interesting artworks all around.
The food is expertly prepared and presented by Michael and the portions are huge, sometimes too much, but tastes so good you just can't stop eating.
The House at Tormos is by far my most favourite restaurant and well worth travelling to

Beautiful restaurant with a lovely courtyard! The Sunday lunch was excellent and the staff were all so friendly and attentive. Even a couple of magic tricks to keep the children entertained! We will definitely return. Thank you Tormos hotel for hosting us.

Fantastic, care and attention wonderful, not to mention the food!! Was the first time we've eaten there, but definitely won't be the last,
Edward Kendall
Lovely house and garden. We were 7 on a Sunday and we had a really excellent and beautifully cooked lunch. 25 euro price really did include everything from welcoming glass of cava to coffee. Thoroughly recommended. You do need to recognise that it's totally English.
Sarah C.
Absolutely fabulous meal! Veggie option provided for all courses. Quaint and quirky venue, beautiful decor and spacious. Staff were very friendly and attentive. Highly recommend!
Linda Macfarlane
House at Tormos Sunday lunch was absolutely amazing. Its a wonderful place with excellent food and service, and the staff were extremely helpful and attentive.
It's a really lovely, special VIP experience for an amazing price.
Can't say enough good things about it.
We went into a time warp. I have never been in a restaurant for so long but the time went really quickly. Just the right amount of time between courses. 10/10. Will definately return. Thankyou all.
Sara Rowbotham
I love this place beautiful decor and lots of lovely art but also great attention to detail and food very fresh and good! This is a place to take friends and family when they come to visit us it has a lovely ambience! I fancy the Friday night dining now ❤️

I think this must be Spain’s best kept secret. Who knew what lays behind this normal unassuming facade.
In a sleepy village, in a deadly quiet road, there is this amazing tropical oasis. Once you are through the doors you will discover a Beautiful garden, teaming with voluptuous architectural plants , comfy sofas and delightful aromas.
The restaurant itself is a tasteful eclectic mix of the old with some new, charming, restful and definitely unhurried.
As for the food, delicious springs to mind. It’s English simplicity at its best, with the odd twist.
I really can’t fault this beautiful restaurant, with a quirky touch. ( how many other restaurants have a bath and shower in the WC)
I’m almost scared to share this secret, for fear it will be permanently fully booked.
Helen Phillips
We arranged a surprise for my parents golden wedding anniversary. From the moment we stepped through the door until the moment we left we could not fault it! The bedrooms are wonderful and have everything you need, including tea and coffee making facilities and bathrobes and slippers. The food was fabulous and plentiful! I would highly recommend it to anyone that wants to escape for a couple of days or just wants a good meal in fantastic surroundings! Thank you to Michael and Graham for making it a wonderful and memorable stay....not very often I see my parents speechless!! Xx
Jeanette Kearney
Having spent our 25th wedding anniversary last night at this fabulous hotel we can totally recommend it.
The welcome we received from the wonderful hosts Michael and Graham was second to none. We spent a lovely couple of hours over glasses of cava getting to know each other.
We stayed in the stunning suite, spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated, everything top quality.
A perfect nights sleep, followed by a magnificent breakfast.
We cannot wait to return.
Thank you both for making our day incredibly special. Jeanette and Frank Kearney xxx

A real gem of a place, delicious food served in delightful surroundings. The house has a good ambiance which is lovely. The owners and hosts are very personable. It is a must to visit.
Amanda Searby
Just home from our stay. What a wonderful place, such detail to the decor, very tranquil and relaxing. Graham and Michael are superb hosts, always around but never intrusive and seemed to just know when we needed attention. And the food, well that was simply stunning. I think I've eaten my entire body weight and every single mouthful was fabulous. Can't wait to visit again.
Joanne Cornish

A secret and beautiful gem serving delicious and attractive food. Attentive and friendly owners and staff. We loved our first visit and will definitely be going back...... over and over again.
Beatriz Sanchis
We stayed at The House at Tormos during our summer holidays in August and we had a wonderful stay. A tradicional spanish old house "casona" completely restored but mantaining the essence of its structure. One cannot imagine from the outside how beautifully decorated it is in the inside! Could not stop taking pictures of every corner of the house :) They have taken care of every detail. The room had a very confortable bed and everything we needed to make it a perfect stay including tea, coffee, milk and water in the room. The breakfast in the morning in the back garden was amazing - Michael cooks both continental breakfast and proper english breakfast . We felt like at home! Absolutely fantastic to stay if you are planning to stay around the area and want a peaceful and enchanting place. Thank you so much for everything and hope to see you soon! Hasta pronto! x Beatrice

How lucky are we to be so near to the wonderful home of Graham and Michael who have a supper club on Friday evening or for us it has to be their delicious Sunday lunch. They have a beautiful home and courtyard garden where we sat with a cocktail before our Sunday roast. There are many restaurants in the area but the 'boys' have made this experience unique. They change the menu regularly which is brilliant for us locals. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed. Wine is included
Paula Bradley
Beautiful place to stay so quiet a typical Spanish village. Michael and Graham were brilliant hosts. The house of Tormos is beautifully decorated and furnished and interesting artwork. The bedrooms are out of this world very well equipped immaculate and comfy beds with lovely bed linen and plenty of fluffy towels too. At breakfast you have so much choice and Friday Supper night is not to be missed.
We had a wonderful 5 days and cannot wait to return thank you so much Michael and Graham for your hospitality.
