Rochamar

Thanks for your replies-as soon as I saw the name I remembered it.

I am surprised there are no reviews of it considering that nearby restaurants,O Farol,Julios and Jardim do Farol have all received coverage.

Any reasons apart from the obvious?

Restaurant-what's it called

I put it down to old age but for the life of me I can't remember the name of the pizzeria/restaurant which is directly opposite the entrance to Rocha Brava and it happens to be one of the few restaurants which we have not been to.

Can anyone help with the name and any experiences they may have had?
