Tamariz Beach Club is a restaurant on Ilha that you can easily spot from the road, about 800 meters before Chillout, on the ocean side. There is a huge sign in front a bit ridiculous, making it look as if we were about to enter Jurassik Park. They have local, portuguese and international food, a bit pricey for the quality you get: 1 caipirinha is 850 kwanzas (10 dollars), a pizza between 1500 and 2500 kwanzas (20 to 30 dollars), 5 gambas : 4,800 kwanzas (60 dollars).
There are two good things about it: The service is attentive, though the waiters tried twice to take away my drink that was not finished yet, and the location is cool as usual on Ilha.
Now for the bad things: Too expensive, too big, not so much charm, not enough attention paid to the decoration, and the worst: 10 people out of 10 at our table found the food was very, very salty.
Conclusion: Not a recommendation, Prefer Caribe or Coconuts.
Update November 2010: Tamariz is closed at the moments, probably undergoing some renovations.. We will keep you informed when it re-opens.
