Staying in Holiday Inn next door so we thought we would try Restaurant..Atmosphere was good and staff friendly..One point that stood out that there was three of us and all our main meals were spoilt by being too salty..Such a shame..Thank you for your review. We are pleased that you enjoyed the atmosphere and found our staff friendly, however, we are very sorry to read that you found your food salty, and will investigate this further. Kindest regards Vicki Good

Slowly i was getting used to going to a Michelin rated restaurant and had to experience ups and downs which not always confirmed the rating they had. So i actually was expecting not too much when i visited Ocean. How wrong i was!
The dishes served wowwed me and my partner, great taste and splendid presentation , leaving me puzzled how they could make it like that. Together with a very good service with attention for detail confirmed that in this case Michelin was absolutely right. I would make a d-tour for this restaurant.

This place really is a gem; we went back three times and, every time, it was busy when everywhere else was quiet and we could see why. The welcome is superb, the staff and management are genuinely glad to see you and they were knowledgeable and helpful about ingredients and special diets which we really appreciated. The food was excellent. Very highly recommended. Thank you to our lovely waiters.

Visited Armacao in October and November 2017.
This cafe is a must go for breakfast.
Fantastic location, fantastic friendly staff and very good reasonably priced snacks.
Probably the best "english" breakfast in town.
Great place to sit and watch the world go by at almost any time of day.

After a week of all inclusive we wanted to go out for a decent curry, not disappointed here, nice little restaurant in a good spot too.
3 starters (sheek kebab is well spiced)
2 curries (chicken madras pretty hot probably go for vindaloo next time)
1 rice
1 chips
1 garlic naan
Bottle of decent wine
It all came to €47 very good service and good value for money We'll go again before we go home.

Situated on the seafront in the old town, this snack bar/restaurant offers a no frills offering of drinks and snacks, all served on a self service basis.
The place is kept clean & tidy and the friendly efficient service makes for a nice experience, with the staff all speaking very good English.
Superb value for money, which is why we visited several times.

Happened to call in for a quick beer and ended up several hours later still sitting in Jonys bar.
Carlos the owner initially gave us the idea he is a little (or a lot) crazy. However, he sure entertains the customers. He very generously gave us tuna pate and crackers, chips and cake - all complementary.
He had us laughing all afternoon. We returned the next day and had steaks which were really tender and well cooked.
My husband had what he describes as the best lemon meringue cake he's ever had and I had a huge slice of chocolate cake.
We will definitely return and look forward to the banter with Carlos and his staff who are all happy and easy going.
Great atmosphere.
Mr Fish & Kim
