I have tried one of those cataplanas (as far as I remember it was called just "Seafood cataplana"), and the only thing I can say about that meal is - I've never had so great lunch, and I've never believed that I can consume so much food at once :) We had lunch in this restaurant several times, and every... more

Excellent!

We stayed in Funchal for 2 weeks and we went for a lunch to Tropicana three times. The food was great, prices were below the average. If you want to eat big for just about 10eur, try any of cataplanas. I really recomend this place. They could change the name of restaurant because Tropicana sounds a little bit wrong for... more

Go the Restaurante Tropicana during the day so you don't have to sit under the ugly fluourescent lights! Food was good, prices very reasonable (hard to find in Madeira!). The staff were very friendly, especially Victor, the guy on the street trying to get customers. more

This was the best food we had in Funchal. If you like fresh fish then you have to give it a go. The menu, in particular the fish and seafood section, is extensive with a wide variety of dishes and lots of choice. We had fish both times we went, and it was always excellent. It is served simple and... more

Near the cable car station (old town) in a block of restaurants. We read the first review so went there - the reviewers were right. Very good value, compared to other places as the quality always excellent at reasonable prices. Keep going back as few are this good. more

We found this little gem after checking out the cable car prices to Monte. We were looking for a place for a snack for lunch and this restaurant looked the busiest of the two that we saw. Whilst demolishing our sandwiches and beer we had a look at the evening menu and decided to call back later. When we did... more
