About

Found on Madeira, Recreio da Ponte Vermelha is a restaurant at R. dos Dragoeiros 62, 9350-215 Ribeira Brava, Portugal. Reaching it from the island's main resorts and towns is manageable, with Funchal, Câmara de Lobos, Caniço, Machico, Santana, São Vicente, Porto Moniz and Calheta all linked by Madeira's coastal roads. The venue sits on the island's southern side in Ribeira Brava.

As a restaurant, it holds a 4.5 out of 5 average from 290 reviews, a solid figure across a large number of responses. That volume of reviews suggests a steady trade rather than a seasonal one. What it is known for rests on that reputation among the people who eat there.

Island cooking leans on fresh seafood, tuna, maize and root vegetables such as cassava and sweet potato, which is useful to know when ordering on Madeira. Whales, dolphins and seabirds gather in the surrounding waters, and whale-watching boats run from several islands.

The 290 reviews at a 4.5 average make this one of the more reviewed restaurants on the island's southern coast. Ribeira Brava's position on the main southern route puts it within reach of most island towns.
