We came here in December last year & overall it was probably the nicest meals we have had. However, on this occasion, I had fish & my man had rump steak. Although edible, the fish was watery & not a true cod steak & the rump steak had lots of gristle within & fairly tasteless. Perhaps needed a sauce?? Our waitress, albeit very pleasant wasn’t aware if the beer was ale or lager & assumed the wine I had ordered was white, having shown her it was red. She then attempted to clear our table before both of us had finished our meal. We would return again but the quality of our food was definitely not up to the standard we had previously experienced.

The food was mostly delicious (my risotto was a bit disappointing), the very busy waiter was sweet and polite. Nice atmosphere.

My boyfriend and I went here for our one year anniversary tonight and it was so good!! The service was amazing, the owner was so friendly and we got to chatting and once he found out it was our anniversary he gave us the two cocktails we had ordered for free :) the food also came out quickly and was really good quality. We will definitely be back and we definitely recommend !! The owner did mention a potential change of name soon so be on the lookout - but it will still be the same restaurant :))

Little Oink is a small, remarkable restaurant on fashionable Magdalen Road in Exeter. The atmosphere is ecclectic and stylish. The food was very good and the staff friendly and efficient.
