According to the Australian Dictionary of Biography, the suburb was named after Robert Torrens senior, who was chairman of the South Australian Colonisation Commission, which was responsible for setting up and running the colony in its early years.

New Thebarton Post Office opened on 1 November 1879 and was renamed Torrensville in 1909. Torrensville was part of the then largely rural District of West Torrens until 1883, when the residents of the more urban suburbs of Thebarton, Mile End and Torrensville successfully petitioned to become the Corporation of the Town of Thebarton. In 1997 the Town of Thebarton re-amalgamated with the City of West Torrens.

The Star Theatre, at 107 Henley Beach Road, was one of the earliest picture theatres in Dan Clifford's cinema chain, opening in March 1916. It was renamed the Plaza Theatre in 1937, but still operated under Clifford's Star banner, and continued to operate as a cinema until at least 1957. As of 2022 it is operating as the Mile End Office Furniture store.

The significant Greek Australian and Italian Australians populations being a result of mass migration in the middle of the 20th century.^{[citation needed]} The 2021 Australian Census identified that 14.8% of residents in Torrensville were of Greek ancestry compared to South Australia 2.7% and Australia 1.7%

Both the State and Federal MPs, representing the electoral districts that include Torrensville, are notable Greek Australians: Tom Koutsantonis and Steve Georganas of the Australian Labor Party. Their success in winning office could potentially be attributed to the population of Greek Australians in their electoral districts including Torrensville and neighbouring suburbs of Thebarton and Mile End.
